This is beautiful!! How do you decide what color goes where in a painting like this?

@LironYan

Thank you ^_^ Very spontaneously (: I tend to use lots of yellows where I know it will stay light, because yellow is generally lighter. I then vary it with red, usually. Blue tends to be darker (and red too sometimes), so I'll use these where the shadows are. So that means blue, purple and green shadows (all the mixes of blue + red / yellow). And sometimes I'll throw all of that out the window and just improvise! Give it a try (;

@@LironYan bruh, my art has changed so much just from this TINY piece of information. I can't even compare it to anything prior because I've never done watercolor but holy crap you TAUGHT MEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah! A Yancosky palette with light, bright colors. Cool. Drawing, values then colors. Something that Stan Miller stresses.

I LOVE watercolor paintings on old architecture and old cars! I have a photo of an old car in our rural driveway,covered in ice that I really want to paint. The car is in several old rusty colors so it will be fun to paint!

Thank you for your kind reply. I only heard about this type of brush yesterday for the first time, and it's great to see it in action when you use it. Your punchy and clear style of painting has caused me to put down other mediums and take out my watercolours again. I love the way you do not overwork your colours but leave the brightness of the paper to pop through.

Wow thank you so much! 😊🙏🏼 It’s so hard for me to “see” my own style, so that actually helps a lot!

Just was looking back through some of my 2017 screen shots and there you were. I love your art instruction, Liron!!!

The graduation using analogous colors was delightful and made the painting have a lot of liveliness. Terrific!

Bingo! You are so right! Very well shown. I will say, though, that I find mother nature to have more interesting and more abundant colors than anything man-made... of course I'm including people and animals but its true of land/sea/sky scapes also. I do enjoy painting things (for lack of a better word) but mama nature has them beat for colors.

I get it, and I agree! But I would also say this one has a bit of mother nature, the rust is a naturally occurring phenomenon (; Haha! But in any case, I really need to train myself in seeing the different colors of nature, because for some reason they are easier for me to see in these types of objects. Thank you ^_^

Haha, well your subject didn't look promising, but you produced something unexpected with your use of color. I totally get what you say about the primaries. They should really all be there in some way, because they appear in life! I just got a new little set of paints for my holiday, and I shall use them on our 12 hour flight!

​@@LironYan your brain likely has engineering/ architectural design abilities and you have strong systems thinking. This links visual-spatial skills with function. How things work mechanically and physiologically, and in multiple space dimensions. I come from a family of engineers and didn't realize when I was younger that it was also associated with art and being a maker. Or why I had friends who were geologists and musicians. I composed music and liked to problem solve. Spent many years in healthcare before recognizing my art was indeed a basic need and I should allocate time for it. Hope others don't wait as long as I did.

I enjoyed your video. I would like to order Daniel Smith watercolour paints. What colors do you suggest? I can afford a red, a blue, a yellow, perhaps two blues. I can make my own green, violet and brown.

As a new painter with no training, I would never know to use colors underneath as a base coat to enhance shadows. I would have painted a straight maroon mixture hoping for the best result. How do you train your eye to see things in a different color dimension? I'm amazed with your perception!
