Thank you! This is the best demonstration that I've seen of how to lighten and darken colors without white.
Excellent, glad to help.
Avoiding burnt unber is interesting. I want to try using burnt sienns instead. I always learn from your videos. Thanks!
Thanks, found that out through trial and error too.
You gave me answers to questions I didn't even know I had. I could not figure out why burnt umber wasn't working for me; it's what my painting professors requested. All the while I was aware of burnt sienna, I never thought to substitute the umber for sienna. And your reasoning makes so much sense! Thank you tons!
Glad this helps, thank you.
Great explanation. I love these short demos.
Thank you Malcolm for reinforcing how to use white paint, stops bad habits from forming 😊 I wish you & family a Merry Christmas & look forward to continuing with The Artists live Channel 🙏🏻
Thank you Jan. Have a great Christmas!
Very helpful Malcolm. Thank you! Every since my first video of yours, I have tried to cut down on white paint. This was even more helpful.
Thank you Beverly

Thank you Diana, have a lovely Christmas
Thank you, Malcolm. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge, and have learned so much from you.
Very welcome thank you
Thanks again, Malcolm. Excellent video. I have been struggling with these issues. I went from using too much black-and-white to using no white at all, lol. And now with your videos, I’m putting color back in. If I could just mix color as quickly and efficiently as you do! 😂
Glad it helped! Keep it colorful
Thank you. Have a wonderful new year
Thank you, same to you.
Thank you very much, you are such a wonderful painter and teacher !!!!!!!!
Thank you!
This was a eye opener for me Malcolm. Thanks for uploading, a very powerful demonstration. Not using the white paint, except in the lighter areas. I now see the benefits, of this approach. It looks much more realistic as you mentioned. I don't think many people seem to know about it.
You're very welcome
Thank you, I learn so much from your videos!

Thank you! Great video.
It's a pleasure, thank you
Useful.
Thanks a lot 🙏
This was very helpful. Thank you! Very clear and to the point. I wonder if someday you could expand on this concept to paint the lighter blues and violets of distance.
Thank you, yes that is planned.
Well done, sir.
Thank you
Thank you.
Hallo, thank you very much, it has show light on what colours can be use to emphasize light. Appreciated
You're welcome 😊
brilliant
Thank you!
Hey thank you again for a lesson in painting trees ....
My pleasure 😊
🎨🖌️🤗👍 your so good 🌳 from Frances uk
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you! Much new information that I will try. Warming up white .... why did I never get that? My painting with the bright sunlight on one side of a white house might become a keeper after all. I think I can improve the side in the shade now too.
Excellent
Great video Can you explain tertiary colour, and why you don't use burnt umber ?... in the winton winsor and newton range burnt umber is a single pigment .
Remember there are only three primary colors. Red, blue and yellow are required to make a tertiary color like burnt umber. Add that to other colors on the palette and you quickly lose control. Especially using an Impressionist palette. I guess it's okay for an Old Master palette of darker earth colors.
Hi, Malcolm. I live in Australia. The outback has the most vibrant blues and oranges in the landscape.
Would love to see what you could do as a tutorial.
I have done several similar landscapes. Our country side is much the same to places in Australia too. Including eucalyptus trees
Could you possibly talk about painting fog and haze in the future? Thank you.
Good idea, thank you.
Great demo as always Malcolm - thank you! I am surprised that you classify Ultramarine as a warm blue - is Cerulean cooler than FU? To my untrained eye, it was just the opposite. Grateful for your sharing, and am learning a lot from your course. Struggling a bit with Notan. But will persevere.
Yes ultramarine leans to purple. It really does show up if you use it for sky blues. However it is not unanimous so each artist must decide 😊
Thank you. I thought you would use a bigger brush.
Hi there , love your tutorials,they are so helpful. Just one point, can I ask that when you've finished your paintings can you just leave the camera on it for a few seconds longer, sometimes it's really difficult to press pause at the right time , at the end I think we need to look at the finished painting for longer and absorb it all. Thanks .
Noted thanks - this particular one is not a finished painting though.
Oh I see , well I was really impressed by how it is already , look forward to the next installment .
This is very good information. I am still a bit confused about using the opaque colors such as yellow deep and cerulean in the blends because then technically the colors would not be transparent anymore. Or maybe that isn't an issue in the same way as adding white to a mix is? Thank you.
Yes exactly. Transparency of cadmiums is fine, but adding white pushes it too far at times.
@@MalcolmDewey OK, I see. That clarifies it more. Basically, using just the colors from the tubes and blending them together equates to a richer, more vibrant color but adding white removes that vibrancy.
What about the alternative whites? Zinc white isn't nearly as impactful as titanium white, and some brands also offer a "soft mixing white".
Yes I have covered those in other videos, Georgian whites. Still these principles apply. Zinc is not a good pigment in general. Mixing white is fine for certain applications like portraits, but will be frustrating in landscape painting. Not strong enough for lights. Yet too much for shadows.
@@MalcolmDewey thanks so much for your quick reply! You're nudging me one step closer towards purchasing your online course ❤️
I see a little boy with a umbrella walking thru the rain. Its sunny outside....but raining inside. He likes foxes. I think you ignore your magic. But then again....this is your route. A more serious route. Beautiful painting. I'm more like a alcoholic painter....(no i dont drink.)Wide open. I do all the wrongs.
