@@SUTAZZZ abridged version for everyone - some colours are darker than other colours, even if their light value is the same. Blue is naturally darker than yellow, purple is darler than red, etc. Always desaturate (remove all colour) from an image and increase the range of values as you draw/paint it - a piece can have amazing hue range but look weird and dull because the value range is very narrow. Make sure shadows have very dark values and lit areas very light.
art is so hard you could study each individual component by itself for years it's so overwhelming this blows thanks for the video, great stuff as always
I theorize that Kinkade choosing to have values so broken up probably lent to the dream like quality that people like from those pieces. Nothing is super defined or sharp so it almost has the blurred effect despite it all being harder edges
you're my absolute favourite vtuber/youtuber, especially when it comes to art advice!! you've really helped me, and honestly gave me motivation to keep drawing! 💞💞 keep up the great content, it's definitely helped a lot more than just me.
recently started to train like this and noticed, that i actually like the process of it, it's like if i don't have to be bothered about color at all and focusing more on the values, almost similar thing i was doing when i was making pixel - art for game. where picking right tones was making my drawings more readable and understandable and what most important my characters wouldn't blend with background
Man, great timing with this. I do 3D stuff and I've been struggling badly with composition trying to get really intense, poppy colors, but it kept coming out really bland and mushy even with a lot of post-processing to boost the contrast. Tried to apply the stuff you talk about here(the grayscale especially was an eye-opener) and I'm stunned how much it helped even though I didn't feel like I really knew what I was doing. Thanks!!
I would argue these value studies would also help you figure out how to clump the linework shading. Where do you want to get heavier in the hatching/crosshatching? where do you want to start putting the stippling gradiant? How would light hit this tree so you can translate it with scumbling? When I did do art classes in college (in a Community College and public university, not a famous art school), they talked about value first and then the excersises were about Low, mid, and high contrast to understand values better and we were forced to use the line shading/drafting as a way to understand "high contrast" and how something can be read with line alone but still have value. It's also how they explained how you can use sketching as a form of art and not just a stepping stone. For example, sketching trees. I got really good in trees with scumbling. Scumbling became my goto line thing when I wanted something fast and I couldn't take forever with hatching, Cross-hatching and stippling. Did it look weird? Oh totally, but they were readable because I understood the value of things at the time. So it'll be intresting how things will change when you go back playing with line with shading when you understand value more.
@@cleanbeanArt No problem! xD though I will say for most peices, it'll look weird when you first try it out as it's literally scribbles from extreamly dense to where there's spaces between it to get that gradiant. I had to draw one of the statues from a museum with using one of the lone techiques only and the one I chose defeantly looked odd at a glance but the texture made it fun. It works really well for trees when you're trying to draw quickly, but I have seen some people who have done Scumbling for portirates and other stuff and done it really well with practice for sure.
I love your videos so much! As a mediocre artist that struggles with colors and saturation, your videos explain it in a way that I can understand! :3 my favorite part about your videos is that you amit your not perfect (unlike most videos just saying “get good lol”) so you explain things like an equal never stop making these videos, you keep improving from your last! ❤❤❤
To be honest, your videos are always SO INSPIRING! When I feel like I'm not good enough for drawing or I'm never gonna be better at art, your videos just inspire me so much. SO THANK YOUUUUU ❤❤❤✨️
damn, good video! This will probably help me a lot with my characters that i'm creating, because they had a problem with "blurry clothes" that never made them stand out. Now if you excuse me, i have to study this for 3 hours a day.
I just wanted to say, your art tips are always so helpful. You pace the information out well in really easy to take in chunks, and it's really helped me improve my own work in landslides!! Thank you so much for all your hard work in making these videos, you're awesome! :D
Hi, this is super out of the blue, but thank you for providing all this free educational content. It's been super helpful for me and plenty of others. I've seen so many artists teach *how* and not so much *why* if that makes any sense? (Although how is helpful too.) Thanks to you, I can finally use all the concepts I've been studying because now I know how I should think and process my decisions!
This is definitely something I struggle with. Been trying to focus more on improving my line art and drawing in perspective recently, but I definitely have to work on my values when I get back to learning about coloring and shading and everything.
the queen saves me once more. i literally started value studies last week and also did the same mistake of black and white versions of the piece i studied.
holy shit. ive been doing value studies for weeks and it never crossed my mind to keep the reference colorized. no wonder my progress has been stagnant! i also never rlly thought abt the intent of the photographer/director/artist and my own intent/interpretation. damn. thank u so much for this video ive never learned so much in 10 minutes 🙏🙏🙏
You have no idea how helpful this video is thank you I've been trying to make sense why my colour in my pieces look so terrible so defiantly gonna through this into the study sessions.
Colors can have the same overall value but still have a nice contrast from each other due to color temperature. Therefore, when doing a white, grey, black 3-value study, you might want to split that grey to a warm grey and a cool grey to represent that contrast.
It's interesting how I noticed this because I enjoy picking out the 'perfect' piece for my profile pictures sometimes and noticed the same thing about values. The ones with amazing values look great even when scaled down
Something i picked up from a color theory book is to start with 3 values (light, midtone, shadow) and then break em down to 5. These extra 2 can go anywhere in between the previous three, (a dark-midtone and a light-midtone, two dark midtones or a light midtone and a darker shadow, whatever.) it depends on your intent for the overall picture (see exposure, focusing on dark or light) Try it out see if it works for you!
MY WISH FOR MONSTER HUNTER ART HAS BEEN FULFILLED!!! Also, the tips on how to practice on these videos have been seriously helpful. Definitely gonna give this a shot :)
I usually start my sketches with geometry and large basic shapes. It helps with framing and choosing where the focus of the piece is. I haven't got into shading or coloring much yet, but it seems like it would be very useful if applied to this as well.
As a minature painter trying to become a 2D artist i know pretty much everything there is to know about Color Theory AND Values. Underpainting, Grayscale, Value Sketching, Glazing, Filters ect. I just can't draw shapes because I'm still a novice but when i do my shading is almost instinctual.
Another thing about values I learned is that certain colors might not look as bright and vibrant on certain values than others. Example: yellow often looks its best and “Yellowest” at a brighter value compared to a darker one. Blue looks its best at a darker one than a bright one. Red is somewhat in between :0 There’s a term for this, but I can’t remember it off the top of my head hehe 😅 Their vibrancy (or lack of one) can help you decide the tone and mood you’re going for with your colors.
Loved the flag of argentina that your character was wearing, clicked just for that and i was left with a very useful video Would click for snother video with the argentinian flag on your channel 10/10
Thank you for another practice journey. I still struggle with shapes and forms since the 3D is missing from my disability. (these lines you make to indicate it's round for an example is a task i can't fulfill, because everything is still flat to me.) interestly enough, my pencil sketches proved to be more interesting due to the fact the colors or shadow aren't blending in like they would do for a normal person. so my hues were always in great depth or blacker black to make sure i capture everything. If I were now to get the colors right or actually able to get the shapes correct (lots of practice), I could call myself an artist with great knowledge. I only draw out of spite right now tho. xD
Here's a small advice, (In most cases) the values in the background are lighter than the ones closer to us. So if you seperate an image into 3 layers, 1. foreground, 2. midground and 3. background, the 1st layer will be the darkest, the 2nd mid layer will have mid tones, and the 3rd layer will have the lightest values. And that's because of ''atmospheric depth perspective'' , imagine if our atmosphere had thin 90% transparent layers, and the more you stack them, the lighter and less visable something becomes. Keep that as a general rule of thumb, but there are always exceptions
Alright good video pikat now hopefully you catch this cuz I'm spilling beans not many seem to. There's two types of brightness to judge in a composition one is the one you talk about whuch is values, now there's another one equally important and is tone/ perceptual brightness which is how bright a color looks in color not grayscale. For example a red at full chroma (255 of value in RGB) has a value of 30 when looked at in grayscale, but if we were to get thise two colors together we encounter that while the values are a 1:1 in grayscale that the 30% gray is darker, and that's where saturation comes in. Saturation is another way to make colors brighter or darker without actually affecting values at all. Compare again red with 30% gray then compare it to 50% gray you'll be surprised at how brighter red looks compared to its actual value in grayscale. Green you may have noticed is a very weird color and this is why, green has a value of 59 in grayscale, but is way brighter at max chroma/saturation with a lightness of L*=87 (Cielab value). So looking at perceptual colors is also important if not more, things like simultaneous contrast, color constancy, perceptual brightness, etc. Two resources I recommend are Handprint.com and Monika Zagrolbena (both her website and envato tuts+) as they both offer good art info about art, with Handprint.com being in my opinion hands down the best resource for everything color theory, and Monika I just discovered recently so harder to judge but she has also blown my mind and made me use rgb slider somehow
im dead when she said "squinting" i instantly started squinting and didnt realise till i opened my eyes that she blurred it out for us lol, that was a good 10 seconds of that
Me who got used to traditional drawing WITHOUT a color because i can only *afford* a PENCIL and a PAPER: Mhm no *reaction* .. Digital art is a life saver frfr🙏🏻
I personally have my grayscale painting on one layer at the bottom, and then I make one layer for each block of color I need. I keep them separate so it’s easier to adjust later on. I clip these layers to the grayscale one, and set each of these layers to the Color mode. It will automatically adjust to the values underneath. I use the lasso tool to select the areas I need to color, with autofill on, and that’s it. After everything is in color, I can always adjust and tweak things.
Also, I forgot to mention, if you need the blocks of color to have more variation and life, I’d suggest using gradient maps, personalize them to your liking, use the lasso to select and apply a gradient map to the selected area. I personally use the color mode for quick pieces, and then adjust and tweak the colors manually, cause that’s just how I prefer to do it, since making gradient maps for each piece is a bit tedious, since I rarely reuse them, but if you prefer each color to have subtle gradients and variation, then gradient maps are great for that.
I have some colourblindness, so when artists or designers contrast certain hues without considering value, it’s very noticeable because I see minimal or no contrast where they intended there to be some. The biggest one for me is yellow/green. When these two have the same value, I cannot tell them apart. Like, if you toss a banana into vibrant spring-morning grass, the contrast is obvious to me, but I cannot tell the ripeness of a grocery store banana at all until it gets brown spots.
Man i just woke up from a dream where i managed to get into art school and going on my first class, but only over 15 minutes of sleep. I guess im motivated, more just confused
Doing 3D art in game design, i always suffer in deciding what the colours of texture should be, and oftentimes just place something good enough (especially in texture atlases). But lighting and post processing are jus so over powered. Not me hiding my mistakes in the darkness.
THANKS, FOR FUCK SAKE, THANKS FOR SAYING THE MOVIE'S FRAME PAGE, i was loking for this web for a while to start doing some values study (I'm not a english speakers so, i didn't figure it out til now, but now i feel kinda dumb, it was so obviuos)
me too, I actually focused more on good line art and then when I touched colors and started using it to my illustrations it turns out so bad, like the colors don't even work well, it's too flat and boring, I wanted to improve so I started doing still life fruits focused on coloring and understanding values, I recommend the same if someone were like me
Hi pikat! I was wondering if you could make a video about your thoughts with people asking "what art style is this?", because it has always bothers me how people want to specifically label an art style..like burnt egg art style, pyantasha art style, jelly art style? 😭 I think it'll be great if you could explain it to audience who may ask that question.. this isn't the best wording but i hope its quite understandable!
THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO STUDY!!! And still haven't found a good class/course/place of knowledge that explains how it works yet! If anyone has any recommendations on this please help a fellow budding artist out Edit: Watched the whole video, will be doing more studies like you did so that I may improve, and also check out Devin Korwin's work :3 Really thanks for this :D

I did tones using only one colour, since monochrome was a bit douting. Than all black and white, it kinda helped.

i creeped in 10 hours ago on twitch...i didnt think you would upload this so fast
A thing that nobody seems to mention is how the heck is one supposed to turn the grayscale into color???
this ^^^^
I get so confused over this, every time i try it ends up looking really bad 😭

I was wondering if you could make a video about your thoughts with people asking "what art style is this?", because it has always bothers me how people want to specifically label an art style..like burnt egg art style, pyantasha art style, jelly art style? 😭 I think it'll be great if you could explain it to audience who may ask that question.. this isn't the best wording but i hope its quite understandable!
I just started to make something like this and now I see that im so lost 😂.. time to start the studying
I guess you could say they’re VALUED more…
I’ll see myself out

Although i do colour in black and white, sometimes i can't tell what layer i was on 🙃
Bro ive been following you on instagram for eons i didn’t know you had a RUclips channel 😭
THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO STUDY!!! And still haven't found a good class/course/place of knowledge that explains how it works yet! If anyone has any recommendations on this please help a fellow budding artist out
Edit: Watched the whole video, will be doing more studies like you did so that I may improve, and also check out Devin Korwin's work :3
Really thanks for this :D
@@2rato Will do! Thanks 😄
Do you spell it Color or Colour
How do I value art?
You're more important than color
Pikat A-B tested open vs closed mouth in the thumbnail. Which did you get?
I got open-mouthed.
these are intersting exercies but how do you evaluate the study to know if it matches the original
Value > color
