you make my day sunnier thanks for another excellent tip
My pleasure, Lisa.
Love how u break it down explaining why you're doing each step. These little quick tips are helping me so much. Thank you 😊
You are so welcome, Debraa!
Honestly 😊
This was so helpful Dianne. I love how consistently you send us back to the color wheel so we can logic our way through each dilemma. Taking the guess work out of color mixing is so empowering. Thank you.
My pleasure, Monica. You are so right. Color ceases being a mystery and becomes a universe of discovery when we learn how to use the color wheel as a guide.
Highly educational. Helps me relax when mixing. I assume this works for other light colours. Can you do a tutorial for the darker colours not just using straight from tube. Any one you think would be most beneficial if I'm on the right track. Thank you Dianne.
Rockcee Art, please watch Quick Tips 204. 282, and 283. If they don't answer your question, leave a comment under either one of them and I'll expand on dark colors in a new Tip.
another great lesson thankyou
My pleasure!
This was so helpful. You are a goldmine of knowledge and I really appreciate the fact that you share your years of experience with everyone. Thank you.
You are so welcome! It's a pleasure to share these.
I just love your way of teaching
Thanks.
Brilliant demo. Excellent video . Thank you very much.
Our pleasure!
Wonderful explanation. Appreciate it so much
Thanks Rayme. I hope you give it a try.
Another brilliant colour mixing tip. Thank you Dianne
My pleasure, Christer. Give it a try.
You are a master mixologist!!
Thanks, John 😊
I love every one of your videos. They're worth gold.
Thanks, Freya!
Dianne, you are a gem! I so enjoy watching your explanations.
Thanks, Karole.
Thanks again. For me it’s like the drip system every little bit counts and eventually adds to the pool of long term memory. 🙌 😃😂
Wonderful! And it really sticks when you practice the techniques.
Just out of interest, do you have any PR83-based paintings from decades ago that HAVE faded? They talk about how fugitive Alizarin can be, but I'm admittedly very sceptical given how the criteria for testing lightfastness is so unnatural. Rembrandt used rose madder (arguably more fugitive) yet his beautiful reds remain intact for all to see.
As a side note, I've recently discovered the benefits of secondary inter-mixers on the palette. I use Pyrrole Orange all the time with mixing front of mind - to the point that I treat it like a fourth primary colour. Don't fall into the "primary colours only" trap. It's a BIG world out there.
That has always puzzled me too. I know that Sargent's watercolours aren't on permanent exhibition yet I presume the alizarin carmine he used is fugitive but it doesn't seem to have faded, whereas Vincent's irises have faded considerably.
@@beewhat2775 I wonder how much of that that had to do with the curing process... I mean, I'd trust Sargent to follow the correct drying principles before letting a painting go out to a client, but with Vincent, it really was a case of roll them up and ship them off, still partially wet. It is weird though, you'd think the watercolour version would vanish to nothing.
Mr. Snrub, decades ago, we didn't have the number system for colors. I have had the old formulas of sap green to fade, but am not sure (though I suspect) it included PB83.
Ive been trying to learn about colours and you explain things very well. Im confused about "purple". Is Diox Purple known as Violet on a colour wheel (violet doesnt look like Diox Purple to me) ??. Also have seen it called cool but W&N say their watercolour Windsor Violet (which I think is Diox Purple) is warm. Im very confused about this. Can you help me ???????? thank you. Watching from Australia.
Lindy, the words' "purple" and "violet" are used interchangeably by most folks these days. Those who insist on a more precise language will often use "purple" when referring to pigments of a deeper value and violet when referring to the spectral color of a lighter value.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Thank you so much. I'm binge watching your videos atm. :-)
I started painting about three years ago and I recall telling someone when they asked that as long as I got the colour mixing down, the rest would be just technical stuff which is the easy part. Little did I know how right I was.
This one was invaluable in a few ways, it helped figure out how to deal with the shadows more than any other shadow specific video I have seen yet and it wasn’t really the topic. I tend to learn more sidebar stuff as you touch on related aspects of the topic.
Wonderful, Jeff! Have fun with it!
Where do I get the paint box you use and how do you keep your paints from forming a skin . What is the best way to store the paints?
Simone, I believe Quick Tips 172 and 115 will answer your questions.
Thanks , I am having same issues. Are these ‘stay wet’ pallets any use? I saw it was a paper that a refill , anyone recommend anything?
I have to say that your instruction and explanation on how to mix colours to achieve whats needed to look natural rather than just mixing black or white into a colour which becomes a mess and not the shades or colours you want and making the painting process frustrating is absolutely first class Dianne.
I’ve watched loads of demonstrations and I think yours are the most clear and understandable.
Thank you
Thank you, Tim. It's a pleasure to share these.
You’re the best. Great tip supported by your interesting demonstration/explanation. Thanks.
My pleasure, Tim.
Thank you so much! God bless you! Cheers from São Paulo, Brazil!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
mind BLOWN!!! Thank you so much for this valuable information!!! I will be putting this to use straight away!
Have fun with it!
Thank you so much for this valuable information!❤
Pale pink is my nemesis! How to create a very pale pink that does not look cool and chalky like Pepto Bismol? Help please!!!
Ginger, please watch Quick Tip 316. If that doesn't answer your question, leave another comment and I'll make a new Tip that does.
Your treatment of darkening yellow has been a wonderful key for me. I have studied and studied your various videos on yellow and done the work with you, in your 4 part series. I have not gotten such important information any where else. Thank you!
Wonderful! Continue to enjoy the journey!
Thank you! I’m painting a sunflower right now!!
Wonderful! Enjoy the process.
Excellent video!
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
My pleasure.
thanks a lot for the excellent tutorial. It is also great for us that you repeat some of the vital points that are essential in technical knowledge of painting like (what colors can a color lean to, does a color feels warm or cold, how about dullerness, ) . These points makes us to clarify the complex color information. Thanks also for these additional information. :)
My pleasure, Hasan. Thanks for watching.
My cobalt violet darken the yellow in a fabulous way ❤
Not surprised! Keep enjoying the journey.
Thank you so very much!
You bet.
Very helpful! Thank you 😊

Yep, all skills work pretty much the same.
You are the best teacher!
Thanks, Cindy!
Great tip as usual Dianne
Thanks for watching, Adrian.
I think I will try to add orange to my yellow to make it darker...& should make experiment with other colors but by adding very small amount to see what happens!..Another useful tip!.. Thank you Dianne for explaining ! You are the best! 👍
Have fun with it, Alicia.
Thank you for this video. Wonderfully explained. Cheers from India.
You are welcome!
Dianne....you are absolutely AMAZING!!!! Thank you so much for sharing your vast knowledge on so many topics. You are a treasure.
Wow, thank you!
In response to your final query......
Fourth option: Tell the Italians they still want her back.
😊
Always good info, Diane! Hope your day is sunny and 🌞 bright! Just say no to "yucky" color! LOL!
Yep! Thanks, Nikki!
I've struggled with this for a long time. This video was an epiphany! Thank you!
Have fun with it.
Landscape painters usually do not include human figures in the landscape. I am wondering why.
Myung, many landscape painters to include figures. Plein air painters might not include figures because figures are not present in the landscape.
Have you done a quick tip showing which tube colours are used in creating the colour wheel.
E.g. Blue = Ultra Marine Blue
Barbara, tube colors are not used to create the color wheel. Creators of most wheels try to registrar spectral colors. In Quick Tip 373, I give you a full explanation of the color wheel.
👍😊very helpful! Thanks so much.
You're welcome!
T'his helps with my digital color mixing too!
Perfect!
This was very helpful, thank you!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
thanks. i see that you have changed your color wheel ^^
Not really, I just created another one.
Diane is the most helpful tutor I have ever had on youtube.
Thanks!
Thanks to you and your team, I already painted few sunflower painting and usually had problems with lighter / darker yellow , adding white to yellow doesn’t look satisfying . Would you please explain that.
Marzieh, I'd need more information, but I suspect it was not so much adding white as perhaps the colors weren't dark enough around the areas you wanted lighter. Also, white tends to cool colors it is added to, so if areas around a color are extremely warm, that could be the reason. A third possibility is the kind of yellow you are using.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Thanks Dianne for very well explanation ,yes the background isn’t dark enough .
You are excellent teacher.
Dear Dianne, thank you so much for this beautiful treasure chest of goodies you put on youtube and your website! I'd love to paint those sunflowers. Where did you get the reference photos? May I practice with them? Thank you!
M J , I use pixabay.com for all the references for Quick Tips, unless I have a photo I've taken myself. These photos are all open source.
@@IntheStudioArtInstructionGreat! Thank you very much. Happy painting! 🌻
Hi, please confirm. Tô darken yellow….Did you say to add dark zinc purple?
The purple I use is dioxazine purple.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction thanks Dianne, I also had problems with the name 😁👍
I'm curious why you added Alizarin Crimson and not Cadmium Red to warm the darkened yellow mixture?
Paula, I added alizarin because it is transparent, giving a cleaner color. Cad Red is opaque and tends to go flat for this approach.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Makes perfect sense. Thanks for your always great tips.
Thank you, Diane. Very helpful.
You are so welcome!
This helped me so very much! Thank you Diane!
My pleasure!
Nice explanation, DIanne, thanks!

My pleasure, Gamer. Thanks for watching.
Thank you very much Dianne very clear
You are so welcome
Hi Dianne - I have just purchased your full palette, I want to lay my pigments around the edge as you do and leave them as you do. Before I take that plunge, I want to know if you put tape or anything else along the edge of the wooden poche box inner edges so that the paint doesn't adhere to both the wood d inner edge AND the glass palette. You've mentioned that you occasionally scrape the paint off when dried and lay out fresh pigments agin....but I think I understand that it is dry by that time. Any problem with the adherence of the paint on the wood and the glass (plastic in your case) palette? Anything I should be cautious about? I am now anxious to proceed. Thank you for any advice.
Lolita, I haven't lined either of my palettes. The paint is going to adhere to the wood and the palette, but I have no reason to remove the palette from the pochade box so that doesn't concern me. The only thing to watch for is paint build up that will keep the pochade box from closing tightly. That's why I scrape it down periodically.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Thank you for your thorough reply - will set the palette up today. Learned much in this video yesterday about darkening yellows!!
Dianne, I reach for your videos and comments so much, and I wonder if there is a higher-level membership that will indicate my sincere appreciation for your work. Thank you.
@@lolitakaloustianyoung7787 I think you can donate to the channel and it will show up in the comments ❤ 🎨
At the top of the page is there it says "thanks" under a heart with a dollar sign in it - if you click that you should be able to donate x
