I’m a hobbyist and don’t have as much time to spend developing my technique, but I always feel like your videos give me a “shortcut” for a lack of a better term, or at least give me great direction. I’m definitely going to try and study this.
Thank you Marco; of all the color research I’ve sought; your understanding and explanations have always made the most sense to me over the past few years. Appreciate your time to make this video; like all the rest you’ve done.
Great video! The way I see it, the configuration that mimics a rotated sky 4:44 might be due to the shape of the cliffs: The most reflected light they receive might not just be from the ground, but also from the directly sunlit cliff to its left. The further the the shadowy cliff extends towards the viewer, the more of its neighbouring cliffs light it catches. But the cast shadow on the sunlit cliff does not receive that much indirect light from its neighbour, wich is in shadow after all and hence the sideway transition, which of course is overlayed with the typical vertical transition for the usual purposes, and thus resulting in a diagonal pattern, or "rotated sky".
That is absolutely correct. I live and paint out there in the 4 corners area and see that almost every time I head out in the Canyon deChelly area. Very good analysis of that effect
@@lolzold4 Absolutely! Choosing your composition in a way that it naturally supports your stylistic choice is a very elegant way of improving one`'s painting
100/10 recommend his Color Survival Guide class. Totally worth every penny. Haven't met anyone to date that has a better breakdown of color and values.
Man, Marco, you're one of the greatest teachers I've come across. The way you explain things is so digestible and really touches on the process in a way that just doesn't seem to be covered. I've been looking more into color studies, and this is definitely sitting in my back back to learn and review again.
Marco, you're the absolute greatest on youtube lessons in the whole planet. I wouldn't have gotten this far without the knowledge you share with us, thank you!
Wonderful. No one explains light the way you can. I have recommended your video on ambient occlusion to so many people and now I will do the same with this one.
hey marco! thanks to you I was able to switch from digital to traditional art. value and hue is kind of a mystery to learn with traditional art. your color theory videos made something in my brain go click and now picking colors, traversing through colors etc comes natural...irl. you are the best :)
Happy to see you back, Marco. All of this does make me wonder if Edgar Payne used a colour wheel to work those colour transitions out. It's quite phenomenal really. And thank you for sacrificing yourself and taking the payne out of our paintings somewhat! 😊 Thanks for making another great video. Hope all's well with you et al.
You litterally made art possible to learn for me! I will buy your courses just for gratitude a feel for your support to the community(and also for all my unanswered questions :D). Unfortunately, I am unemployed now, but when i get a job and get some living i will remember that I have to support you back. :) You definitely made dreams come true for a lot of people that were struggling with their art level and didnt know where to search for info. I wish you best luck and health, you are amazing, thank you for your hard work. :)
I don't paint myself and haven't drawned anything in a good while but this was inspiring. I always found colors, shading and highlights hardest to get a grip on and this helped me understand it a heck lot more :D
Hey everyone - I see all the comments about my tardiness with the collab. TLDR: It will be up by *Friday, March 10!* EDIT: It's up! ruclips.net/video/3Qn7fqWmIfA/видео.html [End edit. Original post below.] I'm sorry it's taken me so long; this was not my intention when I accepted the painting. I've been on parental leave (as you may know from Aaron's video), and while I did begin making the video while taking care of my infant son (initially aiming for a February release), I found that my production quality was dropping, due to the many obligations of parenthood, and I do not want to turn in a sub-par contribution! (I hadn't yet painted the physical piece; I stopped before I got to that point.) I am officially back to work at the end of February, at which point I promise to put *all* of my time into getting this done. As stated above, my personal deadline is *Friday, March 10.* I know there's some who've already lost faith in me, and others who are wary, but I promise everyone it will be the same quality production I always strive for on my channel. See you on March 10th!
Marco, master of colours! If I wouldn't have studied all the great tutorials you so generously share with us, I would've understood very little. Now I feel like having reached a new level of understanding. So, it's only the tiny bit of applying it to my own work though that gets me. 🤪
Thank you so much marco your videos help me a lot with color theory it was hard to understand at first but i kept rewatching the videos and the pieces slowly connect together i think with your channel i can learn so much
Your tutorials are so good! I think I will get one or two of your workshop video next month: The Color Survival Guide, first; and then maybe Understanding and Painting the Head. I'm more a photograph but the information you give is help me so much for editing and color grading. Thanks to you.
@4:30 There is probably a very big patch of mountain face (off canvas) getting a lot of sun on the left of this scene , and this is the light source that's creating the horizontal glow that that protrusion of rock is catching.
There's a lot of information here. The parts that I get lost on are the "pull" and "gravity well" concepts. It's not clear why and how, so when I have to make similar choices myself, I won't really know what to do. It would be super helpful to have this great observational collection of concepts broken down a bit more so I can actually learn the process. The paths you show on the color wheel are not obvious to me which to use, when, and why. I have no doubt you are right, because your results are amazingly convincing. Thanks you for your excellent videos, Marco. I have watched many of them and enjoyed them all. Thought I would take a moment to give you feedback from a struggling student of yours.
Your videos are absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for posting them. What a privilege to have access to quality instruction. I'm very grateful to be alive in this generation.
i learned more from this video in the first 5 minutes than i have of a whole 5 years in art school. ive since graduated and moved into a wholly different field but i want to express my thanks, this is fantastic and lowkey rekindling my interest back into art... thank you.
i just painted a portrait of robert pattinson's the batman with this lecture and i gotta say i think it helped alot who woudl've thought greys could communicate so much while being so invisible to the naked eye!
Hello, Sorry it's taken me this long. I've been on parental leave since receiving the painting in October. Because I produce videos alone, it's been tough to get anything of quality done with a baby crawling around my studio. I'm returning to work on March 1st, at which point I will put all of my time into getting the collab done and posted (the video is currently about 25% finished.) I'm giving myself a deadline: *Friday, March 10.* See you then!
Good evening, Marco! Your videos about digital painting are incredible and it would be great, if more artists could watch them! So, I would like to translate them into Russian for people, who don't know English. Could I do that? The link to the original videos will be in the description for sure
Every time I feel lost in my art and paintings, I watch your videos (specially the 10 mins to better painting series) and it just put me back on track, both technically and inspirationally. Thank you for all you've done teaching us art learners around the world!
I wanted to study art, then i had a brain hemorrhage in the last year, which left me witch a blind spot. since then, i decided to focus on music (it gives me equal joy). seeing this really motivates me to start painting again. when i began painting a couple of years ago, i began by painting landscapes and quickly moved to figuarative stuff. maybe it is time to start with landscapes again.
Interesting - can you ellaborate a bit more on why the light have saturated the rock - and when are the cases in which light will saturate instead of desaturate?
We should nominate Marco for a recognition award, like The Order of Canada or something. He's done so much for furthering my art career and I'm sure many others.
Sowhen a saturated light hits a local color it makes more saturated and warmer, the light will eventually fall off going from warmwarmer to cooler colors. The shadows are the parts when the objests arent hit with light but they still visible bcuz some secondary light sources bounce weaker rays on it, weaker, cooler and not as bright as the main light source. The mixture of ambient light in the shadows is a transition of the colors towards gray. At least thats why i got from this video.
I keep coming back to this video, it just made something click for me, I look at the world in a different way now, its so fascinating to see how colour works!
Thanks Marco, what a great video with so much information. To capture everything I made myself a 19 page script with pictures and text from the video. You have to watch this wealth of information over and over again, practice and practice again. I bought the "Color Survival Guide". I can really only recommend it to everyone.

This was the first Marco B. video I've seen that confused the crap outta me. I need to watch this one like 9 more times.

Less of a short cut and more like clarity.
@@pronoydutta614 yes!

This is so interesting! Thank you for the explanation ☺
But the way this effect works also helps draw the eye towards the middle of the painting. So it might've still been a stylistic choice by the artist.
@@lolzold4 Absolutely! Choosing your composition in a way that it naturally supports your stylistic choice is a very elegant way of improving one`'s painting
And they say art is easy...
100/10 recommend his Color Survival Guide class. Totally worth every penny. Haven't met anyone to date that has a better breakdown of color and values.
I’ve been thinking to buy it
It really helps that you comment this
@@tamuanimations I'm glad I could steer you in the right direction!
BEST explanation of color shift through light that I have yet to see!
Did anyone tell you that your painting style is so impressionist? The way you are building the colors and the way you put them together are so unique.
It's crazy how much info you get from just one painting explanation
Thank you Marco

Playing jazz with the colors is a brilliant way to show transferable abstract concepts of different art forms!
Happy to see you back, Marco.

I am not an artist... haven't painted anything in the last 10 years and i still thought that this was satisfying to watch.

Excellent video as always! Marco's color survival guide course (that he mentions at the end of the video) is completely worth the cost.
I’ve been thinking maybe I should buy it some time
I second this! Excellent course worth every penny.
This is the best description for using colour I have seen.
I don't paint myself and haven't drawned anything in a good while but this was inspiring. I always found colors, shading and highlights hardest to get a grip on and this helped me understand it a heck lot more :D
Thank you Marco! Again you bring easy to learn videos. Colors have been a challenging part for me, and you can explain those in tangible ways

This was amazing. I always lessen something when you talk about colour. (Or about anything else for that matter.)
i really admire your colors in your art pieces and you're also eloquent enough to properly explain things

I loved the chess metaphor, u are amazing, u taught me so much
Your videos are absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for posting them. What a privilege to have access to quality instruction. I'm very grateful to be alive in this generation.
Thanks Marco, I must say, every time I’ve watched any of your videos I get so inspired to paint and draw, you make me wanna pursuit an art carrier
After watchibg this video, i now understand that colours were much much more complicated than i thought they were.
you are precious, we need more of this, more uploads, thanks for everything so far.
This is amazingly helpful, even more when considering the short length of this video. You rock!
Easily the best, most intuitive explaination for color theory my god
i learned more from this video in the first 5 minutes than i have of a whole 5 years in art school. ive since graduated and moved into a wholly different field but i want to express my thanks, this is fantastic and lowkey rekindling my interest back into art...
thank you.
Amazing Amazing AMAZING TUTORIAL! Thank you for sharing this! And I learned about a new artist I'm now going to study!
i just painted a portrait of robert pattinson's the batman with this lecture and i gotta say i think it helped alot who woudl've thought greys could communicate so much while being so invisible to the naked eye!
This video is precious and informative! Thank you Marco ❤️👍 always excited to see your video
I have seen the light!....and shadow lol! This is so eye opening and easy to understand. Now time to execute!
Can you post your part of the collar soon?? It's been a while
It was an enlightenment to see and understand this video. Thanks!
Yes, I have your course "Color Surviving Kit" and I learned a lot. Thank You!
Ua literally the bestes teacher out there
Thank you, Marco, for putting Payne back into painting.
Watching this video, trying to patiently wait for the RUclips collaboration post.

Your course is what I’m studying next year, hopefully on black&white commission money. Thank you very much, and I look forward to learning more.
I understood quite a bit. Thank you.
One of my biggest art flexes is I have Marco Bucci as my teacher.
5:30 now that is the magic! 💯💥🤟
Thank you for the explanation in colour theory.
This is amazing! I am going to be buying this course in a month from now/

no one does it like you, nice one marco
you are such a master of color ! you've helped me understand so much about color threw out the years thank you !
Fantastic lesson! Thank you Marco!
Interesting - can you ellaborate a bit more on why the light have saturated the rock - and when are the cases in which light will saturate instead of desaturate?
Thanks Marco. This makes lots of sense. Now, I need to put it into practice!
Neat. So roughly speaking, base color plus light color at like polar vectors
Wow this was extremely informative❤
Amazing, your lessons are so good man!! thank you for the video
This is indeed a great study, thank you Sir Marco!
We should nominate Marco for a recognition award, like The Order of Canada or something. He's done so much for furthering my art career and I'm sure many others.
I think Marco's version had way more saturation in the shadows for non blue colors. shadow means less information including color information.
Shadows can still have saturation, so I guess it's more of artistic expression
Sowhen a saturated light hits a local color it makes more saturated and warmer, the light will eventually fall off going from warmwarmer to cooler colors. The shadows are the parts when the objests arent hit with light but they still visible bcuz some secondary light sources bounce weaker rays on it, weaker, cooler and not as bright as the main light source. The mixture of ambient light in the shadows is a transition of the colors towards gray. At least thats why i got from this video.
Finally!! 3 months wating for this
I keep coming back to this video, it just made something click for me, I look at the world in a different way now, its so fascinating to see how colour works!
Terrific! Awesome tutorial
It was a great video, and the art course brilliantly improved my poor colour choices.
Holy crap!thank you so much for this video!!
Always a great job man. Thanks
Thank You Marco
Im exited to see you do the collab project!
I feel so smart watching this like wut... The explanation is top notch 👏
im at level 277 at the color puzzle app. i know how color transition works thanks to it
and its free
if you look at the ground there is a giant shadow on the right so 0probably that's why sun is reflecting less from the right

You don't need a paid lesson to learn, you need is video like this to learn. 😁😁😁👍👍👍👍
This is GOLD
Wonderful video thank you so much.
Love your explanations Marco! Everytime I'm in a pinch with colour theory, I always come back to your channel.
excited to watch this one!
Nice, I was waiting for this
You were born to teach man gj

So the colorwheel is a 2 dimensional linear vectorspace where the origin is complete desaturation.
No one explains color quite like Marco does.
Thanks Marco
