This is excellent! Not only for people interested in pursuing a fashion career, but those of us who’d like to dress ourselves better for starters. I’ve stuck to blacks and greys for a long time because it’s what I’m comfortable with, and even though I love bright items I always feel strange spending my money, afraid I won’t know what to match them with. On a tight budget a purchase will be unjustified and barely worn. No more boring though! This will help me build a fun yet consistent wardrobe. Once again, all your content is brilliant so thank you for taking your time and sharing your knowledge with us.
I'm obsessed with color theory and I love researching and reading about color impact on human behaviour and mood. Sometimes when I go "shopping" I will take notes about different color stories presented and lurk where people spend more time😂 It's always useful to hear more about colors and it makes a big difference when you learn these things. Thank you!
That's an awesome way to shop! More people should do that!
fyi, i learned a crapload from Carol Tuttle, www.caroltuttle.com or www.dressingyourtruth.com
2022 and I’m still coming back to this video of yours. I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this! I just love the way you explain things. You’ve helped me out so much. This video is by far the best video about color theory that I’ve watched.
You are like the best teacher ever!
Thank you!
@@zoehongteaches I just subscribed and probably late to the reply’s…
But the phrase is “No skin off my nose.”
I’m learning about mixing colors for my polymer miniatures business and I want to thank you for your amazing content 😉❤️
Just discovered and subscribed to you; goodness you explained this so well! So glad youve shared this information with us. Its a huge help and I wish I found this channel so much sooner.
You are an angel... I was this close to completely giving up on art because there was always something off about my works and i couldn't figure out what it was. Now I have a good idea of what it could be (mixing in wrong temperatures and thus color schemes looking all over the place in finished pieces). Thank you SO much. Not only was this video really really helpful but you also have a very pleasant way of teaching. It doesn't feel like my classes in school "DO IT THIS wAAY Or ItS WrOnG!!" but really just like helpful advice. A friendly "look here's the knowledge, now go forth my child and do crazy things to your hearts desire!" :P
So so helpful. Thank you again and again.
greetings from germany :D
This is still the best lesson of color theory even in 2021. I laughed so hard at "it's a deliberate decision, not an accident."
I Like The Way You Teach... You Just Didn't Beat Around The Bush.... So Straight Forward And Your Explanations Are Pretty Clever Not Like The One They Teach In School... That Makes No Sense Like They Force Us to Do Without Giving An Explanation Behind It... Thanks Once Again Good Job Zoe!
Just wanted to thank you before they stop allowing comments (such I heard have no idea if it is true) on youtube. THANK YOU so very much for this series. I have watched them all and will go back to refresh. I suck with color choice, mixing, basically the whole nine yards in dealing with colors. I am attempting some fluid acrylic painting, making lots of mud or just hating the combinations I chose. Finally I searched color theory and you popped up. You are a wonderful teacher and have helped me so very much.
Thank you for your comment! Good luck with future color work!
You have the ability to open up captions and allow your subscribers to do it free-I believe it's called community-contributed subtitles. You could at least get English subtitles that way. Just in case you didn't know!
support.google.com/youtube/answer/6052538?hl=en&ref_topic=3014331
Ok, I set up it up for community contributions so we'll see what happens. So far, no one who volunteered before followed through past 1 video so that's why I was going to hire someone.
I could be able to help; however, I am pretty busy most of the time but I will try my best
Thank you!
I could help with Arabic, since I am Egyptian if you need this for your Arabic viewers because your videos are more than perfect. i am literally studying with your videos coz I can't afford a college for fashion. poor hahhaha 😂
So I'm one of those people who can't tell the difference between different shades/tones/tints etc of colors, sometimes even two separate colors look exactly the same to me. Basically I'm tone-deaf but when it comes to visual art. This is the first and only video that clearly explained color theory to me in a way that finally clicked. You are a gifted teacher! Thank you so much for sharing your talents with the internet!
That's very nice of you to say! Happy to help!
Zoe you're absolutely an amazing teacher! That kind of teacher that inspires with every class and makes you want to be better and better. Thank you so much. 🙏🏽
I have never seen a video has useful and explanatory like this!! Your videos are always the best and you not only help designers but also illustrators and artists. Tysm!!😁😘
zoey I grew up around a designer aunt and mother but never learned how to sell myself and I don’t know a lot of the Termanology that you were using as I’ve never taken courses but I am vastly interested. I have just decided to watch and learn and do what I can and I just want to say that your videos are some of the most instructive and clearly presented that I have seen. And your passion and interest in what you do really comes through so I wanted to thank you very much for everything you do.
"The more you know, the more deliberate decisions you can make". BRILLIANT!💡💯🧠
This is probably the best video on color theory on RUclips! So informative, and your methodology is great. Some videos just throw a bunch of technical terms in your face and do not show what they mean in a practical way. Thank you very much!
You're very welcome!
i wish i found your video when it was just posted YEARSS ago haha im always left confused by all the color theory videos ive watched all this time and yet you explained it so simply! thank you so much for sharing this information. im glad it got recommended to me 💕
Thank you. This was informative and will put together. My daughter and I are starting to draw and love but we live too far from anywhere to go to a school to learn I appreciate your lesson and will watch more.
I struggled a lot in memorising the color theory but you explained so well. thank you so much!
You deserve so many more subscribers. I'm sure you will get more in time.You have been Sooo helpful in my quest to become a fashion designer.
Thank you! Happy to help! Good luck!
Meagan Carr Well she is kind of hidden over here in fashion design and not in drawing and illustration which seem to be the main instruction here
Amazing video! I watched solely because I find visualizing colors as a challenge. Trying to learn through basic art projects, but shopping for my own clothing is a nightmare. Best explanation of choosing colors I have ever watched. I wish you lots of success with your audience.
Also, I love your glasses. Black to match your hair, gradient to red to match your lipstick. On point.
Thank you so much for this! I am about to get deep into colorgrading in my Photography and you help me a lot! What an amazing teacher you are!
i am so glad you made this. i just asked my friend if he could help me with colors because i wasn't understanding a lot. I'm gonna end up watching this a bunch of times lol
The beauty of these videos is you can watch as many times as you like! Good luck!
I already knew a lot of things you've said. My English isn't the best so I learned a lot of new words today. Now I could explain the colorwheel in 3 different languages. Like a pro. 😂
Sweet!
FINALLY!!! I LOVE YOUR DOWN TO EARTH APPROACH! TODAY IS 10/15/2021...CAME ACROSS THIS VIDEO TRYING TO LEARN AND UNDERSTAND COLOR THEORY...BEEN THROUGH SO MANY. YOURS IS BY FAR THE BEST!!!! I LISTENED THEN REPLAYED WITH PEN AND PAPER...THEN I HAVE STARTED A COLOR THEORY JOURNAL. LOVE YOU ZOE!!!
Ooh teacher teach! Your video series is so full of usable information for everything from color, fashion, portfolio and design to realistic industry work references. I'm not a designer, just someone in love with fabric and color, and for me you are consistently interesting and amusing in a way that makes me want to keep watching. Thank you so much!
Oh. my. gosh. This is exactly what I've been looking for! THANK YOU for breaking color theory down and making sense of it and especially for discussing value, saturation, temperature, tints, shades, tones and mutes. All the other color theory videos I found stuck to the color wheel and color schemes. You taught me about what goes into a color so I can be free and know how to find or create what I'm looking for.
Oh my gosh I love this lady. She is hilarious and sassy. Thank you for creating this wonderful channel. So great.
Oh my god, thats my fantastic!! I love fashion design and this really helped me a lot! Honestly, thank you
This is a really nice educational video on how to work with Colors using a subtractive colors. What some people should see is that you are coloring on white paper which has all of the color values and the colored pencils are filters that negate the color from the the white which creates a pigment of that color. The entire process works by subtracting color from white. On the flip side with additive colors, such as RGB, you add colors onto a black background. This is because the surface we see it from is self illuminated like the pixels on the screen. Not all CMYK and RGB colors can be displayed. CMYK has a very limited color gamut due to the amount of inks and dyes we typically use. Adding certain materials and chemicals. We can create a few more. The RGB has the same problem. There is a limited amount of colors that can be displayed due to the technology of blends we use. But its typically the gamut range is much larger, especially in the Red's and Blues. This is why when you create designs using a computer you may need to convert them from RGB to CMYK. There are many forms of RGB as well as CMYK. Some printers use specific versions and some Cameras or scanners use different RGB color science. Adobe RGB is an example of one type of RGB with a much larger color gamut but is not shows to every monitor because some monitors or software don't have the ability to display it. Instead it appears to be over saturated. One other method to use is a LAB color method. This uses the Luminescence, Alpha, and Beta values to select a color using this method you can get any theoretical color you need even though your computer will only approximate the color. Finally there is adaptive perceived color. It uses scales and angles from how light is reflected to your eyes to change the Hue. An example of this is found in car paint that may appear to be green from the front, but as it drives by it changes to orange. What happens here is that the paint is applied in a specific scaled pattern that reflects and splits up the chromatic values like a filter would. The same is seen on scales of a chameleon or wings of certain butterflies. Sorry I wrote so much. Just wanted to to add some more knowledge to her amazing content. :)
You are as an excellent teacher as I've come across. Thank you for the information. So helpful.
YOU ARE AN ANGEL!!
These lessons are QUALITY HONEY, QUALITY! 🔥♥️
Thanks for your in-depth information all in one lesson, and you made everything so clear with your demonstrations, they just refreshed my colour theory again.
You're welcome!
Zoe, te sigo hace 7 años, soy de argentina (no soy buena entendiendo el inglés pero te entiendo todo) y cada cada vez que veo un vídeo tuyo aprendo muchísimo! Totalmente, la mejor profe del mundo! gracias Zoe!
Excellent, first time some one has fully explained the color wheel.
wow zoe.. its great video.. learnt so much about mutes.. i nvr knew abt mutes.. also u made analogous colors concept so clear...
thank u zoe...💕💕💕😊
You're welcome!
Yay I've always wanted to learn colour theory. I'm so bad at it. Looking forward to this series. Xxxxx
Thank you so much, this video has really help me understand the color scheme. With being red/green color blind, I was able to follow along your video and spot the differences in the colors and not feel overwhelmed. Thank you
Awesome! Happy to help!
I think your video was very informative. Easy to understand. You have a good use of vocabulary I think if you so desire. You can be a college professor. You may face discrimination. Don’t let that stop you. Keep going. Don’t be like other teachers. Be you! A teacher who doesn’t talk down to people. Has the ability to teach simple to the point. I derived all that from this one video.
Thank you so much Zoe! Your explanation of the colour wheel is the best I've seen. Informative and inspiring.
This 1 is my first video .
I might say you are a great teacher.
Awesomeness, I have been doing a great job when painting. Now I KNOW the definitions & actual theory.
ZoeI just wanted to say that you are so right about color playing a lot to do with changing the feel of your design. I did a tiger animal print in pink and yellow. It gave it a completely spring feel and looked almost floral, when done in oranges and black the same pattern looks like fall animal print.
Exactly!
Please do a video on how to incorporate these colors on different skin tones 🙏
I love this video. Although I am an image Consultant and not a fashion designer nor fashion illustrator, I find it extremely useful to my career. Thank you so much for the valuable information.
Thank you so much for this class. I have the wheel but didn't understand how to use. You SAVED me
The BEST teacher EVER! Thanks Zoe for everything!

You're welcome! Good luck with your work!
Simply Awesome and practical way to define COLORS !!!!
Zoe, that's a lesson I really needed. I started painting about a year ago and have a misch mosh of colors. Thanks so much for the clarification.
You are awesome 😎 I don’t know why people don’t support you!!! OMG ❤️
Hello zoe! I'm one of your followers and I want to let you know that your videos are extremely helpful , im a high-school drop out due to family problems, but I really want to becoming a designer although my mother doesn't support me I study through your videos hoping I would gain the knowledge I need to become a designer! Your videos are extremely helpful and keep up what you're doing i wish I could donate to help and support you more but I will once I've got a part-time job hopefully.
I hope you see this comment and many thanks!
I really needed this. Speechles for your talent
I'm teaching myself fashion design. Thanks so much its like you're my Teacher 😊
I am on my way to study fashion design by myself.Would you mind telling me where I can find the lessons and videos related to this major? Thank you so much.
@nigan nguyen Doing the same thing. Just watch all of her videos. She made several playlist for that purpose. And by the books she recommends. She has a video where she explains all the steps to study by yourself.
You are the best teacher ever!!
First time seeing one of your videos. Youre my new favourite youtuber.
I love the first colorwheel. I have it already. It's well-made and fun to use.
I have that colour wheel but didn’t know how to use it to it’s full potential. Thanks so much!
Wow, Ms. Hong!!! What an amazing class!! You opened a new dimension in my life! Thank you, beautiful teacher!🌺🤗🌺
🤯 My mind is blown! Wish I had learned this stuff like 40 years ago.
I can’t get enough of this one; it’s so good!! ❤️🙌🏻
Thank you so much for this invaluable free teaching! You are amazing! I did not receive this info in my fashion school! 💚🙏
Never heard explained so clearly!!! Thank yo!!!
Ma'am you are the best teacher your explaining the style is very good👌god bless you for ever
I did a five year painting degree and this was never explained to me. Thank you!!!
Same here! My fashion school didn't teach this! 🙄
I just found you and I am so glad! Thank you! I can help with captions but I can do nothing about translations. I mean I can use google translate but that isn't the best way to go. I will try to work on just one video this week and I will see how it goes. It is the least I can do to say thank you.
Wow! Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to it!
Chroma - new word for me! You are very good and clear in delivering!
This goes so far beyond what I learned about color in high school! Thank you!! :)
You're welcome!
Great review! You're such a good teacher, your classes must be so fun!
thanks!
You explain this so well! I can't thank you enough!
Thanks!!!!!!!! Loved it, I was so waiting for this!
You're welcome!
This is amazingly thorough! Thank you for sharing!😊
Wow I can’t believe this doesn’t have more views!! This was so helpful, thank you so much💗
Such a good video!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge Zoe. I'm going to re-watch this until I master it.
Just such a good lesson . Thank you
Wow I've really enjoyed watching your video. You know so much. So informative 💕 thank you
You're welcome!
I think the most fascinating thing about color is just how little we really know about them. There are general facts about color theory and harmony but you always hear something unique and learn something valuable. I have heard so many different versions of warmest color, and orange being the warmest is the first time, yet, it makes sense. Still I think the fattest lie that we ever told about colors is "red, yellow and blue are primaries because they cannot be created." gets me angry every time.
Great and very informative , I love your adventurous delivery 👍👍
I need to watch this video again; a lot of information; I think your presentation a wonderful introduction to color theory!
This series is very helpful and crucial for a fashion designer!
Very clear, thanks. Lipstick on point btw.
Hello Zoe! I am a current Fashion Design student and your tutorials are AMAZINGLY INFORMATIVE and helpful to my studies. Have you ever considered writing a book, like an encyclopedia of your knowledge? (I've thought of a cool name, "Zoe Hong: 101"). Your videos are easy to watch even if the length is great. Thanks for everything you do for us artists!
Thanks! Yes, I'm writing a book on design process right now.
I wish I had known about you when I was teaching, my students would have benefitted tremendously!!! Plus you are seriously funny!
Aw, thank you!
Wow, you are very interesting to learn from. Thank you.
thank you! much love from a fellow countryman Vietnamese, please keep up the good work chi :)
the best explained so far thank you very much
It's well explained, I'm going to try it digitally thanks for a great video.
I LOVE YOUR TUTORIALS! Seriously, you are great, thanks a lot!
You're a dream of a teacher
