    Thank you for making the color wheel understandable. I'm 73 and took up adult coloring books recently. If you know nothing about drawing or painting, coloring is relaxing and engaging. What am learning quickly is that not all colors look good together. With all the detail in a coloring book it's almost overwhelming to choose colors. This will help tremendously.

    I have had an assortment of color wheels, apps and now color cubes. I have been so frustrated trying to pick colors for projects and have give up many times over the years. Thanks for such an easy to understand informative video! I especially loved the explanation of grays at the end! Much appreciated 💜

    @EyeLean5280 Год назад +1

    I don't know why some people call colors made from a mixture of two primaries "tertiary" just because they're closer in hue to one of the primaries. A tertiary is just what it sounds like: it's a color made from THREE primaries, which makes sense when you consider that a secondary is made from two. So the tertiaries are the earth tones. A lot of artists and art educators do know this but the percentage that doesn't is surprising.
    The misuse of the term "tertiary" is just the tip of the iceberg of poor thinking in the art world. It's a shame that the art world is so cordoned off from math and science, because things could be so much clearer for artists.
