    Here is a tip from someone who took some paint classes and color comp classes. Black is never something you find in nature. nor do you find pure white. they are always tinted. like snow is often a light blue during day and might even be purple or orange at night(depending of if you are in a city or not). If you feel unsure about the color of a specific object, you can pick your pipette tool and check what are the real colors you can see in a photo to help you figure out.

    My favourite is defnitely the lemons! Perfect background colour for me. I too enjoy painting with a limited palette and fruit, flowers, trees and gardens are some favourite subjects. I normally paint in oils, but you inspire me to take out my gouache again.

    This was such a fun watch! I've always preferred mixing colors myself but until this video I'd never really asked myself why. I think after some thought I've come to the conclusion that using a color without knowing how it was mixed (ironically) feels like too much work. I'm always going to want to tweak and customize a color, with the exception of some super specialty colors I guess, and I don't really want to go through the process of experimenting with how a random premade color will mix with others. Building something myself is almost always going to be a straight shot to what I want, whereas using a fancy color is going to take me off-track I guess? I've always found building colors from the ground up to be intuitive, and it seems like that's you as well! You're process was lovely to watch.

    i love color mixing. my travel pallete is actually a tiny altoid tin with six quarter pans. black gouache, white gouache, lemon ochre/yellow ochre gouache [depending on which i have on hand] and then a bright napthol red, a blue green, or ultramarine, and a hansa yellow watercolor. my paints, because of the water color colors, are generally less opaque, but fantastic for field studies.

    I agree about the color mixing tutorial! I have been mainly self-taught as well (with books and videos). I can draw pretty well, but adding color has always been my sticking point. I do think that drawing WITH the colors is much better for me than trying to add colors to a sketch. But still...

  • @godhateseveryonewhodoesntr5977
    @godhateseveryonewhodoesntr5977 Год назад +1

    Very nice results! I personally prefer colour mixing with the three primary colours too. To me it's easier than having twenty different paints and bothering trying to find the closest matching colour.

    I like limited palettes because it forces me to learn how to make color mixes and get a color that works. I feel that a painting done with a limited palette has a much more cohesive feeling than those done with lots of colors.
    To me it was a huge revelation that I can mute vibrant colors with the opposite on the color wheel. Still learning.

      I can definitely talk more about supplies in another video. But essentially the best brushes I've found for gouache and watercolor are the Princeton Velvetouch brushes. Out of preference I tend to go for the round brushes verses the angled ones (but that's just a stylistic choice) lmk if you have more qs!

    I was forced to learn color theory. I took an art class but I was too poor to buy all the recommended supplies. So for paints I got white, black, red, green, yellow, magenta, and cyan paints, then mixed all colors by hand. I saved money not needing to buy 30 different colors, but it takes a lot more time and reproducing the same brown or purple really took effort.

    • @sofiapavanmacias
      @sofiapavanmacias  Год назад

      Yes! It can be more satisfying and cost effective but harder to then get the exact same tones

  • @bizzybee852
    @bizzybee852 Год назад

    I liked all of the fruit studies, but I did not quite like the light color you outlined the peaches with. It looked sort of odd, like you wouldn't have natural highlights encircling a peach, and I also thought it took away from the colors of the peaches making them look less vibrant. Though I thought you did an amazing job painting the peach leaves using so many different shades of green made them look so natural and beautiful. I find it funny that my least favorite study was the peaches, and it was your favorite. And your least favorite study was the apples, and 'wow' I thought you did an amazingly stunning job of replicating the various shades of colors you find in an apple, and capturing the variations and stippling effect you see in the skin of an apple. The apple study was definitely your best in my opinion, and it was my favorite.

    • @sofiapavanmacias
      @sofiapavanmacias  Год назад +1

      Hi Silvana, gouache is more opaque, dries more matte, and can be easily reactivated with water. Watercolor is more translucent, and people tend to use it with a more watery consistency, whereas with gouache you can use it more thickly. This is just a broad comparison, but I hope it helps!
