When I see a white house I reach for white paint, but white is almost never white. It's because I am stuck on the idea of "white" and prevents me from seeing color.
This is one of the big clues of painting. Lol. But not just white. On a dark evening in winter, a red barn might be purple or dark blue. Color is trippy man.
You should start "color picking" with your eyes... by which I mean you should examine things around you in real life and think about what actual colors you would actually need to paint it!
everything has a story on how it got there. Things are made, not born. Figure out the base which is the colors and/or shades that made it into the final color. “When you see a plant, you don’t feed it’s own dirt.”
@@arioctober9097 why didn't I ever think of doing this, I've always looked at textures but never at colours. I guess I'll start looking for colours as well now, thanks!
I can't get over how much that dark grey appearance changed once other colors were put next to it! It really did end up looking like white in shadow. Amazing!
This video is actually about 7 times longer than the one on the Gumroad tutorial! The Triads video version is only a minute long. It's so awesome to see all this stuff here on youtube.
When I was 9, I wrote a poem about Dinotopia, I had the first two books at that time and was obsessed with them. He actually wrote me back, and be said, "this is the best poem I've received, not just from a 9 year old, but from a person of any age." I was absolutely over the moon and his beautiful reply, and I kept up a correspondence, from here in Australia, with Mr Gurney over in the States, until I was a teenager. I hope I still have those letters. I didn't even think to see if he had a RUclips channel. A truly brilliant painter, artist and storyteller.
Imagine looking outside and seeing someone painting a little picture of your house I'd be so happy if that happened to me But it's not gonna happen because there are no painters in this neighborhood and my house looks weird
I’m flabbergasted: he explains everything and I can even watch him paint, but it still looks like magic: getting a painting that looks so natural from just three colors. I mean: he mixes them, so there is more than just three shades obviously, but to paint something mostly grayish and greenish when starting out with a rusty red, a brownish yellow and a blackish blue just by adding enough white and painting on a yellow background... - it’s all so counterintuitive! - And yet it all works. - I can hardly wrap my head around and he treats the mixing of colors as if it were hard-wired in his brain and he couldn’t even go wrong if he tried... Edit: and then he has the audacity of talking about 8 different ways of making gray! - You’d think it’s “The Onion”, but he means it!
I am the exact same way! I have seen pretty much all of James' videos and each time there is a moment where I just think "Huh? Wait when did this painting become so amazing?"
@@RealmsOfThePossible some of the details are thinner than his nail, the whole house is the size of the palm of his hand, and he is sitting there doing it freehand and is done before the sun sets... - nowadays working with computers you could undo every step, delete single pixels, change colors afterwards, play with the position of light-sources etc. - and he doesn’t need any of that and delivers something infinitely better.
The way that the house really started out grey, and looked starkly like a deep grey at the beginning of the painting, and then how when every other element has been laid down, it is visibly a white house in the shade. Amazing.
I have never watched RUclips ads in my life. I skip them on my phone and have a adblocker on laptop. But for you sir. I sit there and watch both ads, let them complete. This is my way of saying thank you to you.
Honestly being able to paint is one thing, but to also record while moving the camera around like that is impressive as hell, along side trying different undertones/base colors
When I see you paint, I'm reminded of an instructor I had in the 80's. When approached while he painted outside with "how long did that take you?" He replied with annoyance "about an hour....and a lifetime!" This video is short, your watch testifies to a painting session just over 2 hours...BUT, your work screams A Lifetime! Thank you for all of your work, and for sharing it with us!
I love the kinds of things you choose to paint. I'm the kind of person that likes intimate descriptions of mundane things in writing, and your paintings are like a visual version of that. You make every subject beautiful and meaningful, you paint them with so much love.
Great video! When my daughter was four, she would randomly add to a conversation, "And the fires in Pennsylvania are still burning." I had read a National Geographic story about Centralia out loud earlier to the kids, haha. She is an adult now and still says it sometimes.
the concept of painting a white house without using white is one of my favorite parts about painting. My old arts teacher taught us this as well, meaning that nailing photorealistic lights and colours has a lot to do with not just painting green grass green or a red rose red, but looking at it and involving all the tones and colors you can see in that ‘red’. It’s trial and error and really opens up your eyes to colors
Hello James, I am an 18 year old from idaho and I just wanted to let you know that your art inspires me like no other. I cannot watch a single one of your videos without the immense urge to paint for myself even tho I do not have any. Your art is so unique and is the EXACT style that I wish to achieve one day. I love you and your videos keep up the fantastic work!
Your analogy of the fire underground fascinated me. The contrast your story created makes me feel anxious as I await a big burst from the peaceful scene. Well done!
Oh my, I figured out putting a yellow underlayer for myself around 3 years ago for watercolour paintings and haven't seen anybody else doing it. I'm so glad to find you and see the same concept shown with different means on such a beautiful painting!
I totally loved it when Diane Mize sent an email out to all her subscribers saying to watch your youtube on your wife's drawings. She may not want to be in the spotlight, but she has been "outed" as a great artist too!
dude holds a camera the whole time while painting too. i can't even paint a house without it looking like it's from blue clues. thank you for sharing your talent, skills and what you've learned
When I woke up this morning, I never would have thought I'd be watching JG paint while making a reference to Silent Hill source material, strange times.
This is amazing and inspiring, I've had my paints lying around for so long i wanna put them to use, but i've never really understood how to utilize my colour knowledge, i've never used triads before and never understood where i could apply them and this is probably the best and most usable method i've stumbled upon
this just happened to be in my recommendations and i'm honestly really impressed with how much useful information is shown in this. i'm trying to get back into gouache so i subscribed + i'll definitely be checking out more of your videos soon!!
Yes! There's a famous artist local to my area who does paintings of local wildflowers on the hillsides. I happened to walk in to an antique store where his paintings are sold and he was giving a 1 on 1 lesson to a young man. He was teaching the student to underpaint with a purple/lavender to make the orange California poppies glow and pop off the page. Amazing.
Hey here! I admire ur work from the bottom of my heart... now a days in all the "modern art" I m desperate searching for someone who still enjoys the realistic paintings.. as a small child I always thought how wonderful or beautiful it would be to be able to paint something that looks real... I've come a long way through my painting process.. I really admire all your work..please keep going!!! Lots of love ♡♡♡
James is not just a genious painter . . but from the opening teaser ... I would say he is also a drum’n’base lover. Quite unexpected I have to admit ;-)
I’ve heard about gurney for a while, love his art. God, just a simple house and it’s absolutely beautiful! I’m learning to draw, but when I’m ready to paint, I’ll have his videos ready.
The Iron Triads, the toughest art gang in Studio City. This is my first video of yours. I'm pleasantly surprised how calm and yet exciting the video was. I loved watching the painting transform.
Thank you for the video! This is so amazing to learn english (as its not my native language) and gouache drawing at one time. I hope I will be as good as you in drawing with gouache one day.
I have rarely seen color applied and(!) explained that logically and at the same time „un-mathematically“, not to say „un-scientifically“. My experience tells me that very often this is the way to open up the world literally for almost anybody, even the most seemingly „untalented“ and/or worst self-doubters. I have the utmost respect for that. 👉👏👈
Pls i have a question , what are the issential colors to pick when i want to start a gouach painting , are they different from one painting to another or we can just work with them all the time?
If you want the least amount of essential colors that you can paint anything with, I would go with the six split primaries and white. However, it may be easier to include some earth tones like yellow ochre or a crimson or maybe some browns depending on what you are painting. (by the way the split primaries are a cold and warm version of each of the normal primaries. This would mean you would have a magenta and a scarlet, a lemon yellow and a golden yellow, and a turquoise and navy/indigo.) Let me know if you have anymore questions, i’m happy to help!
I’d also like to add that if you are trying to achieve a certain mood, limiting your pallet even further might be beneficial. James Gurnee does this in this video. For example, if you wanted a warmer atmosphere, maybe limit your palette to a warmer version of each primary, or use muted tones for each primary (Like crimson, yellow ochre, and indigo). Each different combination will give a different mood to your painting, but as long as you have some sort of primary triad, you can paint effectively.
@@alwaysimprovingart2583 thanks a lot ! Cause i m new in gouach and i want to buy some tubes , anyways thanks for the answer i ll szarch more about what you said :D
What the?? I watched the entire thing but I still can't wrap my mind on how Grey became white. But, I guess this is why "painting with layers" is a thing huh.
It's just like watching a magician perform his complex tricks, but he makes it looks so easy! I only wish I can be as brave in using gouache. Always been a fan here!
Clicked on video expecting some kid doing art Saw this man and subbed exclaiming “SOLD” Watched him build this house and immediately said “I hate him” out of jealousy and admiration for his talent! Great video!!!!!
This sort of confirms to me a way that I could go about depicting the yellow lighting of sunlight across the trees, shrubs, buildings, whatever beneath the late afternoon sun & its light as I have noticed so many times & wondered about how I would capture such a scene in a painting or a drawing.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
Watching the “grey paint” on the house magically appear white is worth the whole video.
Ikr!😀✨
I mean when you isolate colours they never are how they can appear. Snow is generally washed blue/purple for example.
I clearly don't see the painting of the house as white, it still looks a dirty grey with yellow undertones.
@@lindadurand247 Well with the environment it looks white with shadows. But when you get used to seeing colors as they really are yes this is totally still grey it kinda does that to you when you start looking for the real colors of things you see depending on the lighting.
@@miamdwa Well, true 😊
It would be cool to see two simpler identical paintings done, one with the yellow underneath and one without, to see the difference.
Yes!
Paint it yourself! You can do it!😘
tbh i think the reason he chose yellow underground is cuz od sunlight naturally being a bit yellow this technique might be a little cheat off of that cuz too much white can be boring and to spice things up inna way also to reduce the effort that you vave to put in cuz the bg or the underpaint will work that out i kinda see it as the bg in digital being a digital and traditional modes user i really learn a lot and its very fun
Without the yellow, it might just look flat I think
Not you asking this man to paint TWICE

This is magic. I never thought a yellow underlayer could make a painting so realistic and vibrant, it pops right out of the page! Wow!
So true...
It’s almost like not carrying the yellow paint… lol
I can't get over how much that dark grey appearance changed once other colors were put next to it! It really did end up looking like white in shadow. Amazing!
Also kinda because it dries up and lighten up a lil
Yeahh and also the lighthing in it give the idea of white
Like the white spots
As an artist, hearing "we're gonna learn 8 different ways to make grey" was one of the most beautiful statements. Absolutely wonderful.
All this quality free instruction feels like I'm cheating somehow.
This video is actually about 7 times longer than the one on the Gumroad tutorial! The Triads video version is only a minute long. It's so awesome to see all this stuff here on youtube.
Then pay for James videos so you dont feeling like youre cheating. BTW, James Gurneys videos are definitely a good buy for the money.

And more importantly value
For sure! He really knows how to use hes colours wisley
I get the same happiness I felt as a child watching Bob Ross paint, as I do watching this lovely man.
It just has that warmer glow, despite the cool colors used. It looks gorgeous.

'Kind of like having a fire in the basement, it comes through anyway...' Lol.
Great work as always, James.
Freaking amazing. I got your book “Color and Light” for my birthday a few weeks ago. Incredible.
Really liked your analogies to Centralia, PA and having a "fire in the basment." Thanks!
I don't if you're a videogames guy, but CENTRALIA is the very inspiration for the city of SILENT HILL (the first game I think)
love it! i will apply an under painting tomorrow as well
oh it’s cool to see you here I love the stuff you and doke do
It is a magic. How those little amount of painting white spots shows the house whole is white?!

The fact that you switch from master level instruction to random facts or snippets from history is hilarious
Never expected a Centralia reference. Awesome painting.
I made the mistake of doing the yellowish under painting in gouache before. Forgot gouache reactivates when wet so made everything muddy.
Thanks for the warning!
@@cassielee1114 Gotta be careful with white too. I try to add it last or only when I really need it for mixing the right colour.

Pls i have a question , what are the issential colors to pick when i want to start a gouach painting , are they different from one painting to another or we can just work with them all the time?
Can't go wrong with the true primary colors and some neutrals: cyan, magenta, yellow, brown, white, and black
If you want the least amount of essential colors that you can paint anything with, I would go with the six split primaries and white. However, it may be easier to include some earth tones like yellow ochre or a crimson or maybe some browns depending on what you are painting. (by the way the split primaries are a cold and warm version of each of the normal primaries. This would mean you would have a magenta and a scarlet, a lemon yellow and a golden yellow, and a turquoise and navy/indigo.) Let me know if you have anymore questions, i’m happy to help!
I’d also like to add that if you are trying to achieve a certain mood, limiting your pallet even further might be beneficial. James Gurnee does this in this video. For example, if you wanted a warmer atmosphere, maybe limit your palette to a warmer version of each primary, or use muted tones for each primary
