    3 thumbs up ...if I had 3 thumbs! 😊 ... This Michele was one of your best teaching videos ever!!! Thank you so much!!! As a professional Artist for almost 50 years now I still struggle with mixing my own colours and finding the correct shade/tone...and have spent far too much $$$$ on various tubes of paint to accomplish that goal especially when a commission piece is concerned...just to get that certain colour right! I do know how to mix but have found that the lazy way out is doing a search on Amazon or such to find that colour instead looking in my own paint supply for the answer! Your video has given me just the right amount of inspiration to start doing this myself again and saving a few pounds/dollars as well !!! My new rescue puppy "Jordyn" aka Jordy will certainly enjoy the added biscuit money each month! So...again thank you so much Michele for the fantastic video! God bless and stay safe...Rus from across the pond in Pennsylvania ❤️🖌🎨🤓99mɛoiɛɛɛ6th

    I really enjoyed this video, especially the information regarding how you know whether a color is warm or cool. Tips like, “You know this color is color is cooler because you don’t see any yellow in it” , I’m paraphrasing here. Maybe a video (a slower pace) and a cheat sheet focused on tips to differentiate between warm and cool colors.

    Two thumbs up! I love color mixing and color theory, and I'm really looking forward to the channel memberships. I wish I had had the benefit of your color mixing videos when I got my first watercolor paints. I would have wasted far less time making muddy greens from Ultramarine. Also, Congratulations on your blue sash; last time I recall you mentioning it, you had a green one.

      I love them too. I am not sure Jackman's sell them to the public, they used to but I think there were issues with leakage when they were sent by air... Of course you can put your own tube paints in containers like this.

    Oh yes, very helpful! I am almost at the point where I can call out what colors you might be mixing up to make these color matches. I’m also guilty for not using my white card to isolate the colors I am trying to get a match for. Thanks for the reminder of using the white card & especially for how to go about to matching colors needed for painting! Enjoy your weekend! 💖💕😉

    Particularly with blues and greens I find it hard to know if they are warm or cool. Using your sage top helped with the green, and tho I might get some of the blues I am not always sure. This was helpful though overall, thank you.

      If you mean the Ultramarine, it simply means it's further to the green end of the spectrum than the red end. It will still look blue, it's a tiny difference :-)

      I work up skies in layers, with watercolors typically you leave white spaces then add any shadows later.

  • @jackiemiller1408
    @jackiemiller1408 Год назад

    I know this isn't a mixing question but I need a new tube of yellow. I've been using Cad yellow light for my warm yellow, I don't want to go orange like new gamboge just warm. Should I switch to Hansa yellow light or medium instead? Or something else you'd recommend for a basic warm yellow.

    • @IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber
      @IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber  Год назад

      Hansa yellow medium is probably about right, an alternative is Aureolin. Unfortunately you will need to check each brand as they vary so much. What is 'light' in one brand may be considered 'medium' in another. Many manufacturers will sell you 'dot' cards so you can swatch the paints, worth considering if you have a favorite brand.

    Great video. Could you share what brands offer “non granulating” Ultramarine Blue? I’ve not heard of that at all but I’d like to get my hands on some. I don’t always want granulation when I use that pigment but I do love it and use it a lot. Thanks

    • @IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber
      @IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber  Год назад

      In the UK the SAA has a non granulating ultramarine, and I think some other brands do too. Remember it isn't technically possible to make an ultramarine that doesn't granulate, it's an inherent property of the pigment, so these non granulating colours are actually mixes that imitate ultramarine. An alternative is Phthalo blue (red shade) and it can be made more like ultramarine by adding a transparent pink such as quinacridone, or a clear violet.
