Do You ALWAYS Need Value Contrast in Your Painting?
How do you create contrast in your painting WITHOUT VALUE? Sometimes, you may be painting a subject matter that doesn't have a lot of value contrast. Instead, I explore ways to create visual interest in your painting with hue, saturation, and color temperature variation.
This 4"x4" plein air painting was done at Zion National Park on the Riverside Walk Hike.
I am painting on Crescent cold press illustration Board. I am using a 1" brush and size 12 round brush. All paints are Winsor and Newton Designer Gouache.

This is so important concept. If u don't want your artworks «falling in a parts in tone», just take a big masses of tone and find nuances of color in this big values. srry for bad english)
You are such a gifted teacher AND painter! Thank you for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and building a community of artists who want to grow. What a gift you offer!

That's a very nice painting, and a good explanation of grouping despite changes in colour/hue.

What color you're using
The painting is a bit too small in the screen to properly see

Sometimes it's important not to see something too up close because you are essentially seeing the painting more holistically. The purpose of this tutorial was not for you to focus on the painting, but the concept behind what I was doing :)
