I spent years learning painting with an instructor and he never told me why he used orange and white to have a highlight for a red base color!!! He rubbed me out of money and never let me become independent. To the extent that I just gave up painting because I didn't understand how to mix colors! 😠😠😠😠 I didn't go to a painting school and didn't even know that color theory books existed. I always thought it was just talent and I didn't have all the necessary talent for painting! I can't believe the theory is so simple and now everything makes sense. Thank you very much for this video. I want to go back to painting again and this video gave me a lot of hope. It was amazing. I will subscribe to your website as well. I need all the lessons. Thank youuuu.
I was thought that you were either you had talent or you didn't in art (got this from my art teacher in elementary school mostly). No one seems to teach that it art is a discipline you are taught like science, English and etc..
Believe me folks I watched many videos about colour mixig and this is short & sweet & the best video that explains very well & now I honestly realised my mixing mistakes. Thank you for so simple to understand video.
Fantastic job. I just now looked at the date you uploaded this. Nearly seven years later and you are still helping people. Awesome. Thank you for the effort.
everyone just bet around the bush and add there own theoretical opinions about it but he goes to the core of the understanding and gives you the universal key. thank you for helping to create more art in the world
So many people have tried to explain this to me but finally I really do feel I understand it. Thank you so much, every art teacher should watch this as an example of how to explain colour theory.
OMG..I love you!! This made sense to me in a way that I can never forget. The reference of Yellow always pointing up is a perfect memory tool to understand shading and highlights. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou.
Thiis is by far the best tutorial that I have watched or read about color. Simple precise explanations and examples. You did an exemplary job ! Thank you.A MUST WATCH!!!
The best and clearest explanation I've heard and seen. I'm not bad at mixing colours but this takes it to another level with the mixing of highlights and shadows. Now I'll make some notes for reminders.
I went to art school for 9 years and this is the best explanation I have ever received! Wish I could give you some of the student loan money they got!!!
@mustang7845 glad you enjoyed the tut mate, we have heaps more, so just subscribe to our channel and we will notify you when new ones are added. Also check out our website for tons of free art lessons
You've done a fantastic job in explaining those underlying mechanics behind the colors. I've fought so long and hard as to 'WHY' we mix complementary colors to make shadows. Thank you!
I have watched so much color painting videos but am still struggling to grasp the actual concept but this is so clear and precise. I've always admired people who are able to paint and think that it's sheer talent but today this video proved me wrong. Simplicity at it's best!! Now I finally understand the basic concept. Thank you for being such a great teacher!! God bless you!
This is a treasure , im finally not following a color mixing tutorial , im understanding what im doing , thank you dear , anything you think we should know don't hesitate from informing us you talent ❤️
I learned the importance of knowing the color bias, in order to give correct light and shadow. This is a simple way to explain. !!!! well done !!!! thank you
These theories and practices literally took two years of me being in college to grasp from tone, hue, shade, chroma, highlights, mixing colors, making black, matching colors and mastering the color wheel. As a student the instructor gives you these odd assignments to make studies and grades you on your ability to apply previous studies to the current studies, but you never really see how they go together until you take a painting course or photography course in portraiture. You'd think they would shorten the time but a college student can not truly appreciate their learning experience if it were so streamlined. Thank you.
a very good teacher, making very complex and difficult thing understandable and easy is the main advantage of this video, many people speak many difficult terms, scientific names, many introduction and stories; but they just made things more complex and comlicated. What I need is to know and learn how to mix color well. and you did a great job
Hey man, indeed it's a best stuff about using a colour theory I've ever seen, red and heard in two languages - Russian and English. Great thanks for your job!
Awesome, thank you for sharing! I have remade this video in HD if you need the students to see a higher quality version of the lesson. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/J50vopOjYcA/видео.html
Such a fantastic video! I learn so much better through visual! I plan on watching this video once or twice, then on the third watch I will take down notes and paint along with the lesson so this is all ingrained in my memory!
I have never fully realized that amixture could be more vibrant by adding white and yellow, and a purple can be highlighted with white and red or blue. Thanks for this!
Just remember that it is not always yellow, it is the next colour up on the colour wheel towards yellow so for red you add orange and for blue you add green, etc. :)
This is the most understandable video I have seen so far, it feels like I finally understand how color mixing work and how to make my project look better! Thanks so much!
Thanks: I've watched that clip a few times and now got a much simplified understanding of the process of mixing colours. I will use the principles outlined on my next attempt at painting, and look forward to success!
Thanku so much for this video. Now I shall start understanding the colors more. I am begineer in laintin...and so far Was painting blindly following some random tutorials without any basic knowledge of color mixing.🙏Thanks so much.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your painting journey. I have many lessons on my website to get you up and running quickly. Feel free to have a look.
That moment when someone explains something that nobody else does and it just clicks together in your brain. Been trying to move from drawing in grayscale over to using colors, but something always seemed to be off, especially when I tried to brighten things. Now it all makes sense, thanks.
After watching your video it has all suddenly clicked. I have painted for a few years and had some very unrealistic colour effects. I have studied the colour wheel before and got lost in explanations, this was a great one for understanding! Thanks once again :-)
@Sarandib22 yes it presumes you have a natural "white" light source. If you have a light source that is tinted, the tint colour - in your case neon green - would affect each colour (mid, highlight & shadow. You would mix your paints as though a natural light source is lighting the subject, then either: Paint the scene with those colours and add a colour wash over the painting using the tint of the actual light source or: add some of the tint colour to each mix before you start painting.
Thank you SO much for this fantastic tutorial! I am so looking forward to diving in deep into your channel....it’s what I’ve been asking the universe for... clear simple wonderful guidelines! 🙏💎🙏
As long as yellow is at the top, then up is up towards yellow and down is downwards towards purple, regardless of whether you are on the left or right hand side of the colour wheel.
Thank you for your explanation. I was injured almost a year ago and I'm getting cabin fever. My rotator cuff and back were damaged and it doesn't leave me a lot of options on hobbies. My girlfriend suggested I paint to release some of my imagination. My attempt tonight proved to me that yellow+blue=green isn't advanced enough to paint a stick figure well. Your video helps me tremendously. Thank you.
+Steve Green sorry to hear about the injury Steve, but glad that you have the support you need and the courage to give the art a go. I know you are going to love it just as much as we do ;)
+PaintBasket I know that I will enjoy it. I have always loved art, but never tried my hand at it because it seems most artists live in or barely above poverty for much of their early life. Now I have nothing but time because of my injury. Sometimes, we have to look for the blessings in that which seems a curse.
+Steve Green you go for it!!! My story is actually a bit different - I was earning peanuts running a printing company and only started making decent money when I became an artist, lol
i cant say enough how valuable this tutorial is . i almost have seen every color wheel tutorial on youtube . may i ask is there any tutorial for hyper realistic flash tones in oil ? tank you
there is no secret recipe for realistic flesh tone as everybody's skin tone is different, then you also have the various ethnicities, etc which have an effect too. I do however have a portrait painting course where I show how to mix and match any skin tone under the sun on our website : www.paintbasket.com/paintbaskettv/?stream=class-list&medium=oils&subject=portraiture
Love the accent! Right on target with explaining the theory of colour and its relevance to creating more realistic 3D effects as oppose to my standard 2D efforts! Thanks for sharing, I have this vid locked and loaded for my canvas!
I paint miniatures, and have been chasing a "blue/purple" kind of for a themed Warhammer army named "Indigo Children", have got close but have not been able to nail the highlights without going dull or chalky, so thank you. Is there an easy way to tell which way an existing blue or red say is biased? I have heard this can effect the mixes going muddy or gray, as i work with premixed paints, miniature paints tend to have super fine pigment, perhaps i would be better of with a standard set of Red, Blue and Yellow? That colour buster is calling to me!!!
Thank you for this information. I am new to painting and so it will really be helpful to me in the coming months. I will be sure to check out all your other information. Thanks again!
Nicely presented! I just wanted to add a little to what was said at 1:27, "it reflects its own color". Technically speaking it should be said "it reflects all color projected on the object that the object is not". Suppose the color temperature emitting from a source to a ball is in the range of what we call white light and the ball reflects red light back to your eye. Then naturally we say the "ball is red" but technically speaking we are saying it backwards. For example, suppose the light emitted is within the blue color temperature range. So what color would a red ball (under white light) look like if blue light was projected on it? The answer is black. My point being that the color of an object that we perceive with our eye is actually not that color, instead the object is every color of the emitted light incident on the object except the color that is reflected. Therefore the object is actually the negative of the color it is reflecting. However, it would be odd if someone was asked another " what color is your new car?" and the response was "my car is every color but blue if under a green light" or "my car reflects the color red when white light is projected on it". Like I mentioned, the video was nicely presented. I know this is a painting tutorial so my comment may be somewhat irrelevant to those less interested in the physics of light. I just wanted to share a token of light theory that fascinates me and something others might find interesting.
+J. Justin Garcia The chemical element or compound painted on the object controls the color that is reflected into our eye. Here is a link to an informal website if anyone want to learn more: www.jcsparks.com/painted/pigment-chem.html
Hoooly smokes, this is probably the most valuable video on colour mixing I've seen since I started painting 2 years ago. A complete revelation! Thank you so much :) Btw I bought your colour buster tool today and am looking forward to using it. Also love hearing a South African accent on youtube ;)
lighter refers to the tonal value (how light or dark a colours is), brighter refers to how intense / vibrant the colour is. You would make a colour lighter by adding white. You would make a colour brighter by adding first it own colour back into the mix, then the next colour up on the colour wheel
I'm an artist and i must say this is one of the best color theory tutorial I have seen so far in RUclips.
I spent years learning painting with an instructor and he never told me why he used orange and white to have a highlight for a red base color!!! He rubbed me out of money and never let me become independent. To the extent that I just gave up painting because I didn't understand how to mix colors! 😠😠😠😠 I didn't go to a painting school and didn't even know that color theory books existed.

You sound like a hopeless brat.
This is THE best tutorial of mixing color I've ever found. Thank you for sharing!!!
I have just learned more about colour and art than I ever have in my entire life. Thank you so much and God bless you.
fantastic :)
And the fact you commented back is over the top really
Believe me folks I watched many videos about colour mixig and this is short & sweet & the best video that explains very well & now I honestly realised my mixing mistakes. Thank you for so simple to understand video.
you're welcome Ramesh
Same here!
Can't agree more. Thanks so much!!! Keep up the good work. Looking forward to learning more from u.
Fantastic job. I just now looked at the date you uploaded this. Nearly seven years later and you are still helping people. Awesome. Thank you for the effort.
good info is timeless I guess :)
everyone just bet around the bush and add there own theoretical opinions about it but he goes to the core of the understanding and gives you the universal key. thank you for helping to create more art in the world
So many people have tried to explain this to me but finally I really do feel I understand it. Thank you so much, every art teacher should watch this as an example of how to explain colour theory.
thank you for the feedback Caron, I am glad the vid has helped you :)
This is an incredible video. I learned more about color mixing in these nine minutes than in all the other videos I've watched combined.
Glad it was helpful!
Wonderful. Cant stop thinking about how good teacher you are. God Bless You!
OMG..I love you!! This made sense to me in a way that I can never forget. The reference of Yellow always pointing up is a perfect memory tool to understand shading and highlights. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou.
Go South Africa! This accent takes me back to school days. Thanks for sharing this so simply and freely.
Thiis is by far the best tutorial that I have watched or read about color. Simple precise explanations and examples. You did an exemplary job ! Thank you.A MUST WATCH!!!
This is an Old video but one of the simplest to understand on RUclips. Thank you so much.
The best and clearest explanation I've heard and seen. I'm not bad at mixing colours but this takes it to another level with the mixing of highlights and shadows. Now I'll make some notes for reminders.
I went to art school for 9 years and this is the best explanation I have ever received! Wish I could give you some of the student loan money they got!!!
I am glad it helped you :)
ThIs is the best color mixing tutorial I have seen so far. Very well thought out and presented clearly and concisely. Big thumbs up.
I watched this video years ago, and it's still the best explanation of how to mix colors I have seen and heard.
thank you for the compliment
@mustang7845 glad you enjoyed the tut mate, we have heaps more, so just subscribe to our channel and we will notify you when new ones are added. Also check out our website for tons of free art lessons
You've done a fantastic job in explaining those underlying mechanics behind the colors. I've fought so long and hard as to 'WHY' we mix complementary colors to make shadows.
Thank you!

I am glad that it makes sense now as colour mixing is so important. Good luck with your painting journey.
Thank you...no matter how often I watch or read an article on colour mixing I always learn something more! Jane (UK)
This is a treasure , im finally not following a color mixing tutorial , im understanding what im doing , thank you dear , anything you think we should know don't hesitate from informing us you talent ❤️

Colleges would get better resuts from their students if they taught more info like this
You are a wonderful teacher. I've never had the color wheel explained so clearly. Great tute!
Thank you for this wonderfully clear explanation. The first time I have truly understood why and how to mix colours. You’re a star. 👏😊
Glad it was helpful :)

Thank you, this, to me is the clearest, concise video I've seen on color mixing ’rules’.
Glad it was helpful!
Hey man, indeed it's a best stuff about using a colour theory I've ever seen, red and heard in two languages - Russian and English. Great thanks for your job!
It starts to make sense. A good starting point. It answers many questions that seem a bit all over the place. Thank you.
I am so glad I came across your tuturial. It is explained in such clear way and has inspired me to get on with mixing and painting. Thank you so much
This is an excellent easy to understand tutorial for beginner painters. I have shared the link with my students many times. Thank you for posting!
Awesome, thank you for sharing! I have remade this video in HD if you need the students to see a higher quality version of the lesson. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/J50vopOjYcA/видео.html
I had been painting last 10yr, but these concepts ....for the first time. Thank you.
Thank goodness! BEST mixing theory I've seen. Very understandable with the animation and information. Thank you!!!
I am glad it has helped you Mary :)
I'm relearning color theory and I specifically sought out this video because of how much it helped me before. Simple and sweet! Thank you :)
I am glad it has helped you :)
Hands down the best video I’ve seen on this yet! Answered all of my questions. Thank you!
Excellent. By far the best tutorial on color mixing I found so far. Thank you sir!
Thank you so much! Watched so many other videos which were not informative enough but yours explains everything from the very basics.
I am glad you found a tutorial that works for you :)
This short tutorial is packed with good information. The shadow portion explains a lot of the mystery I had with that issue. Thanks!
you're welcome, I am glad it has helped :)
Seriously the best explanation of the color wheel I’ve seen!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much . To a novice as myself this has been so so valuable.
Thank you so much! This is a very informative video! and your diagram and animation really help better understand!
Such a fantastic video! I learn so much better through visual! I plan on watching this video once or twice, then on the third watch I will take down notes and paint along with the lesson so this is all ingrained in my memory!

The most fearfull part of oil painting for me is not drawing but mixing the paint. This tutorial was realy helpful. going to try it.
One of the best demos. Simple and concise
thank you Paddy, I am glad it helped :)
Thanku so much for this video. Now I shall start understanding the colors more. I am begineer in laintin...and so far Was painting blindly following some random tutorials without any basic knowledge of color mixing.🙏Thanks so much.

fantastic, now your color mixing will improve the quality of your paintings dramatically. Good luck Rattja :)
This is a excellent uncluttered tutorial. Beautifully explained and illustrated. Thanks.

Fantastic, as a new painter (basically for board miniatures), it's amazing to have this klind of tutorials available! Thanks a lot :)
there are many more on my website, feel free to take a look there as well :)
The best explanation I've come across in years. Well done sir.
thank you for the compliment Gerry :)
Thank You for this detailed tutorial, it help us a lot, especially to those who start to take on painting lesson. God Speed!
Thank you so much. I too, just learned more about mixing colors than I did in the Art class I attended.
thank you
this is thebest color theory video online, it changed the way i color
fantastic :)
Thank you SO much for this fantastic tutorial! I am so looking forward to diving in deep into your channel....it’s what I’ve been asking the universe for... clear simple wonderful guidelines! 🙏💎🙏

PaintBasket are you from sa?
I was born in Lesotho 💎
As long as yellow is at the top, then up is up towards yellow and down is downwards towards purple, regardless of whether you are on the left or right hand side of the colour wheel.
Finally a great and easy to understand video, thanks so much.
I am glad the explanation helped you
finally someone explained it so I could understand it ,thank you so much ,,time to dust off my rarely used color wheel .
Glad it helped!
Amazing video out of all the color explanation videos i found on youtube this by far has been the best one thank you sooo much 🔥🔥🔥
You're very welcome!
Thank you for your explanation. I was injured almost a year ago and I'm getting cabin fever. My rotator cuff and back were damaged and it doesn't leave me a lot of options on hobbies. My girlfriend suggested I paint to release some of my imagination. My attempt tonight proved to me that yellow+blue=green isn't advanced enough to paint a stick figure well. Your video helps me tremendously. Thank you.

+PaintBasket if you don't mind me asking... about how much do you make per year?
+Steve Green I am not prepared to give that answer here on a public forum sorry, but it is well above average
I AM A TATTOO ARTIST AND IS WHEEL COLOR MIXING WAS AWESOME..THANK YOU
Man, why is it so hard to find such great videos on youtube?
I am glad this one helped you. I hope you subscribed so you can find us again ;)
there are many different colour wheels that one can use. I have explained the RYB one here. You are clearly using the CMY colour wheel.
excellent! Thankyou very much in reminding us the basics and foundation of mixing colours.
You've got it explained in the simplest way ever. Thank you ❤
you're welcome Pearla :)
bravo!
if only all tutorials were full of useful information like this one
the best tutorial i ve ever seen for color wheel , god bless you tank you so much .i ve already seen it 15 times :).
watch it as many times as you need until you have these rules memorized - they will make a huge difference to your artworks, I promise :)
i cant say enough how valuable this tutorial is . i almost have seen every color wheel tutorial on youtube . may i ask is there any tutorial for hyper realistic flash tones in oil ? tank you
there is no secret recipe for realistic flesh tone as everybody's skin tone is different, then you also have the various ethnicities, etc which have an effect too. I do however have a portrait painting course where I show how to mix and match any skin tone under the sun on our website : www.paintbasket.com/paintbaskettv/?stream=class-list&medium=oils&subject=portraiture
Simple to understand and the best colour wheel theory 🖌️
Awesome!
2nd time back to understand color theory - thanks a lot for this tutorial, very helpful for a new painter :) Cheers from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
Love the accent! Right on target with explaining the theory of colour and its relevance to creating more realistic 3D effects as oppose to my standard 2D efforts! Thanks for sharing, I have this vid locked and loaded for my canvas!
After many years I understand it clearly! Thanks.
This is an incredible explanation!
I am glad it helped you Aya :)
You sir...just opened my eyes and made my life so much easier.
learning this info off by heart and implementing it as I painted dramatically improved my paintings. I have no doubt it will do the same for you.
I paint miniatures, and have been chasing a "blue/purple" kind of for a themed Warhammer army named "Indigo Children", have got close but have not been able to nail the highlights without going dull or chalky, so thank you. Is there an easy way to tell which way an existing blue or red say is biased?

the Color Buster will instantly tell you if your colour is biased towards blue or red. It is an incredible tool to teach you how to match colours
Great! Excellent explanation, complete and exaustive! Thanks for the big help! Subscribed

The explanation in highlights and shadows is so helpful! Thank you so much!!! Bless you!
you're welcome :)
Just watched one of your webinars, and I loved it. I cant thank you enough. Keep it up!
Hoooly smokes, this is probably the most valuable video on colour mixing I've seen since I started painting 2 years ago. A complete revelation! Thank you so much :) Btw I bought your colour buster tool today and am looking forward to using it. Also love hearing a South African accent on youtube ;)
Wow, thank you!
Great video! I learned so much.
Glad it helped John, on our channel you will find a 2 hour webinar where I go into even more detail :-)
Simple and great way to explain such a complicated thing. Thank you!!!
+deCaravagio you're welcome :)
great video, a really good way of describing colour mixing.
Baie Dankie, that has taught me a lot am trying to learn how to paint in acrylics and this has really explained so much
you're welcome Jenny :)
Great tutorial especially for beginner artists like myself.
I am glad you enjoyed it Mary. Good luck with your art journey. :)
Great tutorial. Thanks!
Agree. This one is the best 👍🏻
This is a explanation the colour wheel and tone. Thank you
you're welcome :)
lighter refers to the tonal value (how light or dark a colours is), brighter refers to how intense / vibrant the colour is. You would make a colour lighter by adding white. You would make a colour brighter by adding first it own colour back into the mix, then the next colour up on the colour wheel
This is a wonderful tutorial, I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned lots.
