I've been playing around with raw Umber in shadows. Seems dull. Mixing burnt umber to warm it up and Ultramarine to cool it down. Modulate cool greys in with it seem interesting.

When I saw the title of this tutorial I didn't think it would be of much interest,how wrong can you be .I'm painting a portrait with a lot of dark earth hues at the moment,glad I didn't miss this opportunity to try and understand what I can possibly achieve.Thanks again

You're so much fun. Great lesson. First thing I thought of, soon as I saw the shoes was Vincent Van Gogh's Pair of Shoes from 1886, the Pair of Shoes he did in '88 & the Three Pair of Shoes he did, also in '86. The saturations & hues are so different, but looking back at them now, I am also crazed that internet reproductions are so varied, it drives me a little insane because I'm looking at Van Gogh's art, but not necessarily the way he painted it.

Now I can understand all browns AND stop calling them “brown.” Let me second the praise of one commenter: I really appreciate that you don’t get silly, play bad music, spend time apologizing for anything, and don’t use dayglo colors in the still shots for your videos.

Laurie, the key to getting good "browns" is to switch how you look at the away from "brown" to their hue, value and saturation. What we call "browns" are most likely oranges, red oranges and reds, all at a low saturation.

Dear Dianne, thanks a lot. This is very helpful. I learn so much. I have got similar problems with the color blue. It is said, that you can mix all colors from red, yellow and blue. But which blue is meant. Which one is the original blue for this statement a dark blue like Prussian blue, a lighter blue like Kobalt blue or Ultramarine blue. Maybe you can help.

@IntheStudioArtInstruction

4 жыл бұрын

When we refer to color in general, we first need to recognize its hue. Blue, as it appears on the color wheel or on the spectrum, is closest to Cobalt Blue. Ultramarine blue leans slightly towards Violet and Prussian Blue leans towards Green. Whether all colors can be mixed from the three primaries depends upon either having all three primaries at their closest hue registration or on having on the palette both a cool and warm version of the three primaries.
