Great video. Another tip - if you use a warm blue (ultramarine) and a warm red, as demonstrated here, you will get a desaturated purple, because the warm red has yellow in it, so you have all 3 primaries in the purple, making it desaturated. If you want a vivid purple, use a warm blue (it leans to red) and a cool red (like Quin magenta, which leans to blue and has little yellow) and you will get a vivid purple. Same color theory applies to creating greens and oranges.
That's a great tip. I dont really paint but I remember seeing a tube of premixed purple and thought why I just couldnt get that vibrant purple by simply mixing blue and red myself.
Oh my goodness, you just answered a question I have been struggling with my whole life!! I always look at explanations like this one and be like 'I KNOW he did not just call that purple, it's poo brown!' And then I can never predict what color I am going to end up with when I mix paints together, it always seems unpredictable to me and so frequently I end up with different varieties of brown. But I am going to totally think of this advice from now on and never be confused again. THANK YOU!
I am 82 years old, and just starting to try my hand at painting. I am leaning toward abstract painting, and have been watching a lot of videos. I have been admiring the colours people are using, and did not understand how to get such beautiful colours. I thank you for this video. I am now going to sit and try my hand at mixing these colours and see which ones I like best. I do hope you are a teacher ad you make a wonderful teacher. Thanks again.
With abstract, color is everything.. maybe try working with opposite colors paired... orange with blue, yellow with purple, red and green etc. Tends to be aesthetically pleasing
Grandma Moses started painting in her late 70s. I retired 2 years ago at almost 67 and due to severe complications after a hip replacement I had to give up hiking and my new metal detector sits in the corner gathering dust. So to distract me from losing all the plans I made for my retirement I have taken up painting as well. Go for it, we have our whole life experience inside us....get it out and on paper, canvas, wood, metal...whatever! Best of luck!
I have been a college professor for almost 34 years. I know good teaching when I see it and WOW are you good! No fluff, no garbage filler chatter.... just to-the-point information. I appreciate that so much! Now, as far as the content goes? Such good stuff! You explained temperature and saturation in ways that I've never heard before and I really learned something new here. I'll have to watch this one a few more times before I really "learn" it, but that's okay! Thank you for a great video!
Hi. I’m a retired sp.ed. Teacher, certified, abd. I am so tired of artists calling themselves teachers when they are gabby demonstrators. I agree, finding someone who has natural teaching ability is indeed rare. I expect to be disappointed and am thrilled when not. Glad someone else notices.
I’ve got to tell you that by this time in most vids I’ve turned it off as it’s been repetitive droning on and on and really not giving me anything and frankly, wasting my time. Im a painter and a colorist as well and I find your video to be fresh and interesting and definitely a keeper! Thank you for really conveying some very relevant important info here! I also have no problem at all with the very mellow soothing sound of your voice👍🏻 so keep bringing that info 🙏🏻🥇👍🏻
OMG THANK YOU!!!! This was the single BEST clear, concise, and helpful color lesson I have ever had!! I WISH I had had anyone teach me this, in this way, previously. Now I actually understand both the values and tints, and their practical applications. THANK YOU!!!
WOW, I am sitting here absolutely stunned, what an amazing tutorial, thank you, I will watch it over and over. You have a wonderful gift for teaching and your voice is so patient, kind and easy to follow. Cheers from Melbourne, Australia.
I watch a good amount of instructional video which is the huge gift of You Tube in my opinion. I learned so much from this class. You are a terrific teacher.
Wonderful instruction. Clear, detailed and easy to translate. I can get lost in my love of color until my painting turns to mud. Your discipline in explaining the palette unlocks the mystery. Most instructors talk about mixing color but usually while painting a model or subject. This devoted video to just mixing color is the best instruction I have seen.
I have mixed colors in the past and wondered why my results were so different from the instructor's. Now I know. I may never learn it all, but you certainly are opening my eyes to this world of art. I can only say kudos to you all who can incorporate all of this knowledge into such beautiful work. I humbly bow to you.
Thank you so much for this!!!! I'm entering year five of sobriety and I'm making art again and I'm starting over and boy is the world beautiful when your spirit is healthy! What a joy to have such a phenomenal teacher!!
Im really want to paint especially in my age but I dont know how I will start,but now since your vedio tought me a lot no hindrance to fullfill my dream.Once again thank you very
Excellente demonstration accompagnée d'explications sans musique perturbante ! J'ai pris un grand plaisir à vous suivre 2 fois de suite...merci infiniment...du coup je m'abonne et je like.
Excellent video! NO drawn-out beginnings - thanks for that! A good pace for someone trying to grasp these concepts. I appreciate the show-and-tell happening at the same time. Thank you for helping me to understand what I am aiming for in mixing and where to go with the colours to achieve what I'm aiming for. Very clear. Repeating what another professor said - you are doing great in teaching this! Keep up the good work!
I've been known for "paint pouring" on my channel. With pouring, the challenge was always to keep the colors vivid. So while I understood that red & green or purple and yellow often make mud when they mix - I had no need to go beyond that. Now I've moved from pouring to brush painting - Ive been really frustrated I couldn't get the colors I saw in my head. I want more muted and neutral/natural tones in my abstract florals, and I wanted them to look less vibrant. This tutorial was fantastic. Your voice is calming, soothing and you are informative with a light-hearted delivery that made an hour go by in a JIFFY :) As a fellow content creator, I KNOW how much work goes into these videos and I totally appreciate you taking the time to create it. THANK YOU!
The concepts and ideas here are a valuable review, well worth the time to view the tutorial several times. Thanks!! Those of us who use acrylics should keep in mind that, even adding retarders and using the equivalent of "Sta-Wet" palettes, our paints are never going to stay useable for this long, let alone long enough to paint two or three versions of the same subject, using our initial mixtures of paints. But the points about mixing hues, tints, and tones are still very helpful.
That was the most informative but easy to understand tutorial iv ever watched! Thankyou so much Kyle! If you're seriously a beginner, this is the video to watch! Thankyou!
This was very informative, thanks. I remember the bare basics of mixing colors from a couple lifetimes ago in elementary school but I've recently taken an interest in learning to paint and decided to brush up on color theory so I can mix my own custom colors. You've done an excellent job with this presentation. Paint CAN BE expensive so I imagine if one can become proficient at mixing their desired colors one could probably save some money by doing so. Thank you very much for this fantastic demonstration! 👍
Kyle this video is the most detail and value filled explaination on Colouring Mixing I have found on RUclips during my journey into the beautiful world of painting. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into this video and sharing your deep knowledge of this subject. Thank you Thank you thank you
The only 1hr long video on RUclips I watched without a hint of boredom! Thank you so much I was really having a hard time learning how to match colors when I paint. Your content is great.💕
As a complete colour newbie.. I would just like to say THANK YOU for this video! I was so stunned that black isn't used to darken a colour - all the times I've done so in the past, I've been so perplexed as to why my colours turn out so awful looking. But it's what I was taught when I was younger. I've learnt so much from this video, it was truly eye opening!
What fun! You just took away all my dread about diving into this subject. I intend to watch and dab along with you again and again until this lesson becomes pretty much automatic. You've done a real service here and I thank you.
Can I just say thank you for putting a smile on my face with the purple dumbell segment. I realized at that point that I was still watching. I was more interested in color theory than i have ever been, and not from lack of desire to learn it but from the sheer need to keep repeating the practice and going over the principles until they become natural. And no book or person has been able to hold my interest this long on a subject that is still eluding me a little. But right now I know I'm going to watch THIS video over and over and practice it until I feel a basic comfort with this. I know this is what's been blocking me from enjoying all my new paints and markers etc. Your voice is definitely asmr quality but your ability to hit the right pace and the right level of language for me to be able to stick to this gives me hope that I WILL eventually learn it. I have adhd and never realized how it affected so much for me. As a child I didn't have much choice in who would be responsible for teaching me. But with platforms like this students like me can find teachers like you and that's BIG. I hope parents with children who are struggling with certain kinds of learning turn to people like you to help their kids catch up in subjects like art so they don't grow up like I did thinking I was not creative because I was told I was bad at it. Could you imagine? I know adhd intimately.....I treated it in children for almost 10 years before I even had a clue that I was living with it and so was most of my family. I think back to how my brother and I struggled in different ways from the same conceptual difference in processing information and I cringe knowing how hard it was on everyone to see two exceptional human beings struggle to feel good enough. I don't know anything about you or your endeavors but I'm a fan and will get to know more with time but if it ever crossed your path to teach or offer your classes to kids with neurodiversity, I think you would be opening doors that might otherwise remain closed. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts and knowledge. ❤
This is the first video of yours that I watched and I immediately subscribed after it ended. I have always been interested in art and even took 2 advanced art classes in high school on top of my regular art class (eons ago), even then this was not taught in this detail. Kyle, you definitely have what it takes to teach and I for one am very excited to learn. Thank you for taking the time and effort to put your videos out here, I greatly appreciate it.
Outstanding performance in teaching a subject that is complex in very simple terms that a beginner such as I can understand. Your method has a couple of key points in a common core lesson plan that solidifies learning in a concrete manner. Great job, I will definitely make use in my own art.
Karen S -- What she said! Art was a hobby not a career or profession where I grew up, but I always did creative things and had that eye for observation, paying attention. So much so dad nicknamed me "Eagle Eye." Should be Ms. Eagle Eye. I still have the gift, and it has heightened senses of smell and hearing to accompany it as I age. It requires that I discipline my observations though so as not to go overboard into obsession. I'd rather though be hyper awake than nodded out. LoL Today I definitely would augment a career in science with some web design, or space decorating feature.
Love it, Kyle! Thanks for sharing all this knowledge with us in a slow, step-by-step way. Easy to understand and follow you as you turn three colors into a ready-for-anything palette! :)
Thanks a lot Kyle for this wonderful real time video. It resolved lot of doubts that I carried within me about colors and temperature and other things. It all made sense. Heartiest gratitude to you for giving us your valuable time and knowledge. 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
Amazing lesson. I now truly understand the color wheel. I've watched countless videos on art and just now UNDERSTAND color. Thank you for this. I appreciate you!
I am 69 years old and have only been painting a couple of years and this video has explained so much. You are a patient and knowledgeable teacher. Thanks so much for sharing. I will finally be able to make my own color wheel. All of the comments were also helpful.
Thank you Kyle this is so much fun and exciting. I had know idea I could get so excited about mixing colors and getting what I'm shooting for. I'm only part way through this video and what a great bonus on the pallet knife - jeeze-louise I have been struggling with that for some time now and certain colors doing it on my own learning by trail and err but having the knowledge behind it sure does help it make sense when you're trying to get specific colors. I've heard different mentors speak of warmer & cooler colors but couldn't figure out how that worked. Now, if I can just figure out which way to move my brush I'll make better panting marks. 🤩 Hey, Thanks Again Kyle Super Appreciative of your time.
Hi Kyle I am new here and I was so amazed with this interesting color blending tutorials. It’s really impressive and useful. Thanks a lot for sharing. A new friend here. I wanna see more if your artwork tutorials. Keep it up my friend.
If you can mix all existing colors with these 3 primary colors, try to mix the Telekom magenta. Good luck! :D A better color model is Cyan, Magenta, Yellow. Printers are using this color model for a good reason. But there are some useful tips in this video anyway.
Just discovered your channel. Thank you although I only use watercolors. I would especially appreciate your level of expertise using watercolor w demonstrations. 👍👍👍❤❤❤
Nice it’s give us some ideas . But colours have various types,someone can’t mixed this. please give us some ideas about natural colour mixing and drawing
Contrary to all the positive comments here, this video is a prime example of how colour continues to confuse people. So much straight up misinformation and useless vocabulary here. I don’t understand why people continue to say that out of all primaries you can mix all colours. You are confusing additive and subtractive colour mixing. You can mix a version of every hue, yes, but that is something very different then to say you can mix ‘every’ colour. Colour comprises hue, value and chroma. Having an understanding of those fundamentals is key. Try painting a bouquet of purple and rose flowers with your primary palette and you will quickly realise how limited your range is.
Thank you for an amazing and thorough explanation of color mixing. I have been working with this for some time and watched several videos and none of them made as much sense as this one. I will watch it over many times I'm sure to capture it all but now I know where to go for my information!
I don't paint with oil but this was an amazing masterclass! Thank you. In watercolor, a lot of artists use CMYK colors, and usually never white, like printers. This was very interesting that in oil you use red, blue and yellow as your primary. The lesson about the hue, saturation and value was perfect.
It not about being oil, it's personal preference. Some artists use YRB others use CMY and others use split primaries of Red Blue yellow in warm and cool version to have more options and just choose based on the subject.
😮 wow… amazing tutorial… exactly what I was looking for… there are so many explanations in writing in the internet but this one is super easy to follow and will remain in my memory forever now. Thank you.
To all the beginners out there, using a limited palette as such is only beneficial for those who want to play around with color mixing using the primary colors... Using a limited palette as such is a waste of time- you can be using that time with composition, and getting in the time to achieve your signature brushstrokes... Also, there's a color bias when using only one of each of the primary colors- meaning you need to find out ( and many of these painters never talk about, and many aren't even aware of..) color bias is when your mixing a warm red (has a yellow in it) and a blue that's cool (has a green ) that purple will come out garish- muddy grayed appearance... One must look at each primary color and know what is the other color in it. .does it lean towards green or red with a blue...and so on... Many of these painters who like using a limited palette- many things are going on, one their obsessed with just mixing colors....thinking wow I know this...also their paintings all appear the same as far as color....and many painters works (paintings) appear either too muted, garish, muddy, dull...or too vivid (bright).... Also ....your not saving money using limited palette as such....your using more paint...and....you'll never achieve a purple.... Put color into your life...paintings.... Color is about mood, how you want to set the color scheme to achieve that mood of your subject.... There can be 20 painters all using the very same limited palette as shown here, and same composition, same everything following along...every painting will be different in the end...no one will achieve the same....that one painting that stands out from all the rest is the painter who has the ability to see...mix color and their signature brushstrokes... The most important thing beginners need to work on is getting in the time....practice to achieve your signature brushstrokes.....understand the basic fundamentals...and composition....there's so much more to learn after this phase which comes with time.....and how much you study ....research...along with the more time the more practice....you want to achieve your signature brushstrokes where it becomes second nature like your handwriting..... Color mixing as shown here will take much time and money.....where again the time should be used on brushstrokes, composition, understand color schemes to set the mood of the scene- It's crazy how many painters really think using a limited palette is better than having tubed colors....also with landscapes and seascapes each scene will have a different area ....which means colors will be different for water....rocks and such....with having a cool and warm of each primary on your palette along with additional colors in your tool box such as magenta....turquoise.....and such...having colors as such doesn't mean you have to put all of the colors on your palette with every painting your doing. You decide what colors you want for that specific scene, the color scheme to set the mood.... Not one person watching this will achieve the same colors when mixing this way with such a limited palette.
I am a beginner and I am VERY happy that I have only 12 colors. More would be overwhelming. Hazel Soan wrote a very interesting book about the limited palette (and there is an interview with her here on YT). She explains that a limited palette will give you colour harmony. What a great, easy way to get there!
Wow am I happy to have found this or what? So informative, wonderfully present & conversational w/o the typical loud, busy or chirpy "RUclips personality" bit. THIS is is fantastic. Thank you!!!!
MY GOD, thank you so much, i have been painting for couple of years.... but this opened my mind even more... will do couple of paintings by pre mixing my colors.
I really thought a 1 hour video would be too long but wow… The course was really captivating and instructive, and I know that I wouldn’t be able to have that much informations from any other video Thanks for the time and effort (and paint) you’ve putting in it :)
Great video. Another tip - if you use a warm blue (ultramarine) and a warm red, as demonstrated here, you will get a desaturated purple, because the warm red has yellow in it, so you have all 3 primaries in the purple, making it desaturated. If you want a vivid purple, use a warm blue (it leans to red) and a cool red (like Quin magenta, which leans to blue and has little yellow) and you will get a vivid purple. Same color theory applies to creating greens and oranges.

Jesus....dude. I've been trying to make vivid purple for two days....I have the wrong gd red. Thank you so much for saving me a giant headache.

Outstanding performance in teaching a subject that is complex in very simple terms that a beginner such as I can understand. Your method has a couple of key points in a common core lesson plan that solidifies learning in a concrete manner. Great job, I will definitely make use in my own art.

Karen S -- What she said! Art was a hobby not a career or profession where I grew up, but I always did creative things and had that eye for observation, paying attention. So much so dad nicknamed me "Eagle Eye." Should be Ms. Eagle Eye. I still have the gift, and it has heightened senses of smell and hearing to accompany it as I age. It requires that I discipline my observations though so as not to go overboard into obsession. I'd rather though be hyper awake than nodded out. LoL
Today I definitely would augment a career in science with some web design, or space decorating feature.

Wowed! Specific Constructive! Thankful!
You have given me hands down THE BEST explanation and instructions on the use of the color wheel! Very clear! 🤗🤗🤗
Enjoyed this very much
I’ve watched hundreds of videos about Color mixing but this one is the best I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much! 👍💪
This artist is an excellent teacher,really thorough in language terms,hue, color temperature, watching is so important…
Such an amazing tutorial, thank you so much!
Love it, Kyle! Thanks for sharing all this knowledge with us in a slow, step-by-step way. Easy to understand and follow you as you turn three colors into a ready-for-anything palette! :)
The best one that I have seen. So good explained. Thank you 🙏❤️
Great tip about posture. Desk jobs trashed my neck and back. Wish I had taken breaks. Young folks, take heed!
Learn alot... amazing class
Thanks a lot Kyle for this wonderful real time video. It resolved lot of doubts that I carried within me about colors and temperature and other things. It all made sense. Heartiest gratitude to you for giving us your valuable time and knowledge. 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
You are a great teacher !
Thank you! ❤️
Amazing lesson. I now truly understand the color wheel. I've watched countless videos on art and just now UNDERSTAND color. Thank you for this. I appreciate you!
Very useful and great educational video thank you for sharing your experiences with us
I am 69 years old and have only been painting a couple of years and this video has explained so much. You are a patient and knowledgeable teacher. Thanks so much for sharing. I will finally be able to make my own color wheel. All of the comments were also helpful.
This was super helpful and explained incredibly. Thank you very much!explained
Colour theory is so exciting and interesting to me…it’s like magic. I need to watch this again and write all the key points down!
Fact that this video is 1 hour long but no one even skipped a second 💀💀
Thank you Kyle this is so much fun and exciting. I had know idea I could get so excited about mixing colors and getting what I'm shooting for. I'm only part way through this video and what a great bonus on the pallet knife - jeeze-louise I have been struggling with that for some time now and certain colors doing it on my own learning by trail and err but having the knowledge behind it sure does help it make sense when you're trying to get specific colors. I've heard different mentors speak of warmer & cooler colors but couldn't figure out how that worked. Now, if I can just figure out which way to move my brush I'll make better panting marks. 🤩 Hey, Thanks Again Kyle Super Appreciative of your time.
Thank you so much
Can't believe this is for free! Thank you so much for your dedication.
Extremely informative!!
Thank you so much! This was literally the most helpful video I've ever came across in my adventure to becoming an artist.
I’m a beginner worried about waiting my paints😅 Thank you!
This is an excellent mixing class, the best I’ve ever seen. Thank you !
Thank you so much for this! Learned so much. You are such a great teacher
Hi Kyle I am new here and I was so amazed with this interesting color blending tutorials. It’s really impressive and useful. Thanks a lot for sharing. A new friend here. I wanna see more if your artwork tutorials. Keep it up my friend.
If you can mix all existing colors with these 3 primary colors, try to mix the Telekom magenta. Good luck! :D A better color model is Cyan, Magenta, Yellow. Printers are using this color model for a good reason. But there are some useful tips in this video anyway.
Just discovered your channel. Thank you although I only use watercolors. I would especially appreciate your level of expertise using watercolor w demonstrations. 👍👍👍❤❤❤
Seconding this. I'd love to see it with watercolour.
ty 💯🖖🌷
The purple looks brown in the vid o.O
Nice it’s give us some ideas . But colours have various types,someone can’t mixed this. please give us some ideas about natural colour mixing and drawing
That is absolutely brilliant! Wonderful explanation and demonstration of how to understand colours. Thank you so much!👏👏👏
Contrary to all the positive comments here, this video is a prime example of how colour continues to confuse people. So much straight up misinformation and useless vocabulary here. I don’t understand why people continue to say that out of all primaries you can mix all colours. You are confusing additive and subtractive colour mixing. You can mix a version of every hue, yes, but that is something very different then to say you can mix ‘every’ colour. Colour comprises hue, value and chroma. Having an understanding of those fundamentals is key. Try painting a bouquet of purple and rose flowers with your primary palette and you will quickly realise how limited your range is.
Thank you for an amazing and thorough explanation of color mixing. I have been working with this for some time and watched several videos and none of them made as much sense as this one. I will watch it over many times I'm sure to capture it all but now I know where to go for my information!
I’m so glad you feel some clarity on this topic now, it’s wonderful to have that “eureka” moment!
I don't paint with oil but this was an amazing masterclass! Thank you. In watercolor, a lot of artists use CMYK colors, and usually never white, like printers. This was very interesting that in oil you use red, blue and yellow as your primary. The lesson about the hue, saturation and value was perfect.
You can use either for any medium and there is even split primary setups where you use both a cool and warm version of either RYB or CMYk.
It not about being oil, it's personal preference. Some artists use YRB others use CMY and others use split primaries of Red Blue yellow in warm and cool version to have more options and just choose based on the subject.

Wow! You’re an amazing teacher! I have learned so much from your videos, especially this one! THANK YOU 🙏 God Bless ❤
I know this is done with oils, but if I do with acrylic, will the colors dry out as I mix through the color wheel?
Thank you for the Master class. And I must say it stays true to the title.
Learnt a lot, your explanation technique is clear and easy to understand.
😮 wow… amazing tutorial… exactly what I was looking for… there are so many explanations in writing in the internet but this one is super easy to follow and will remain in my memory forever now. Thank you.
You’re welcome!
To all the beginners out there, using a limited palette as such is only beneficial for those who want to play around with color mixing using the primary colors...
Using a limited palette as such is a waste of time- you can be using that time with composition, and getting in the time to achieve your signature brushstrokes...
Also, there's a color bias when using only one of each of the primary colors- meaning you need to find out ( and many of these painters never talk about, and many aren't even aware of..) color bias is when your mixing a warm red (has a yellow in it) and a blue that's cool (has a green ) that purple will come out garish- muddy grayed appearance...
One must look at each primary color and know what is the other color in it. .does it lean towards green or red with a blue...and so on...
Many of these painters who like using a limited palette- many things are going on, one their obsessed with just mixing colors....thinking wow I know this...also their paintings all appear the same as far as color....and many painters works (paintings) appear either too muted, garish, muddy, dull...or too vivid (bright)....
Also ....your not saving money using limited palette as such....your using more paint...and....you'll never achieve a purple....
Put color into your life...paintings....
Color is about mood, how you want to set the color scheme to achieve that mood of your subject....
There can be 20 painters all using the very same limited palette as shown here, and same composition, same everything following along...every painting will be different in the end...no one will achieve the same....that one painting that stands out from all the rest is the painter who has the ability to see...mix color and their signature brushstrokes...
The most important thing beginners need to work on is getting in the time....practice to achieve your signature brushstrokes.....understand the basic fundamentals...and composition....there's so much more to learn after this phase which comes with time.....and how much you study ....research...along with the more time the more practice....you want to achieve your signature brushstrokes where it becomes second nature like your handwriting.....
Color mixing as shown here will take much time and money.....where again the time should be used on brushstrokes, composition, understand color schemes to set the mood of the scene-
It's crazy how many painters really think using a limited palette is better than having tubed colors....also with landscapes and seascapes each scene will have a different area ....which means colors will be different for water....rocks and such....with having a cool and warm of each primary on your palette along with additional colors in your tool box such as magenta....turquoise.....and such...having colors as such doesn't mean you have to put all of the colors on your palette with every painting your doing. You decide what colors you want for that specific scene, the color scheme to set the mood....
Not one person watching this will achieve the same colors when mixing this way with such a limited palette.
I am a beginner and I am VERY happy that I have only 12 colors. More would be overwhelming. Hazel Soan wrote a very interesting book about the limited palette (and there is an interview with her here on YT). She explains that a limited palette will give you colour harmony. What a great, easy way to get there!
Thank you! I'm just starting out and this was so helpful!
That was the best explanation and hands-on exercises I have found yet, to help me understand color and how to mix them. Thank you.
Your purple looks brown.
Wow am I happy to have found this or what?
So informative, wonderfully present & conversational w/o the typical loud, busy or chirpy "RUclips personality" bit.
THIS is is fantastic.
Thank you!!!!
Why u used a grey background?
Any specific reasom
Great question! A mid-toned background makes it easier to compare the values of a color (their lightness or darkness).
Thank you so much for this class so complete, for sharing generously your knowledge. 🥰
I have watched so many videos on color and you have explained so much better . Thank You 😊
I was like, an hour?! Here I am an hour later like, I just sat here and watched the entire video!
Necessary tips for home
What a great video! Thank you for taking the time to share the knowledge with such patience and care.
MY GOD, thank you so much, i have been painting for couple of years.... but this opened my mind even more... will do couple of paintings by pre mixing my colors.
As a beginner to painting...this has helped me to understand values and to mix colours more confidently. Thank you.
Great video sir,I’m in process of learning mixing colours for my tatto art!thank you for big help with this video.
I really thought a 1 hour video would be too long but wow…
The course was really captivating and instructive, and I know that I wouldn’t be able to have that much informations from any other video
Thanks for the time and effort (and paint) you’ve putting in it :)
