I have to say that your instruction and explanation on how to mix colours to achieve whats needed to look natural rather than just mixing black or white into a colour which becomes a mess and not the shades or colours you want and making the painting process frustrating is absolutely first class Dianne.

I started painting about three years ago and I recall telling someone when they asked that as long as I got the colour mixing down, the rest would be just technical stuff which is the easy part. Little did I know how right I was. This one was invaluable in a few ways, it helped figure out how to deal with the shadows more than any other shadow specific video I have seen yet and it wasn’t really the topic. I tend to learn more sidebar stuff as you touch on related aspects of the topic.

Not surprised! Keep enjoying the journey.

Just out of interest, do you have any PR83-based paintings from decades ago that HAVE faded? They talk about how fugitive Alizarin can be, but I'm admittedly very sceptical given how the criteria for testing lightfastness is so unnatural. Rembrandt used rose madder (arguably more fugitive) yet his beautiful reds remain intact for all to see. As a side note, I've recently discovered the benefits of secondary inter-mixers on the palette. I use Pyrrole Orange all the time with mixing front of mind - to the point that I treat it like a fourth primary colour. Don't fall into the "primary colours only" trap. It's a BIG world out there.

@beewhat2775

2 жыл бұрын

That has always puzzled me too. I know that Sargent's watercolours aren't on permanent exhibition yet I presume the alizarin carmine he used is fugitive but it doesn't seem to have faded, whereas Vincent's irises have faded considerably.

@mrsnrub9780

2 жыл бұрын

@@beewhat2775 I wonder how much of that that had to do with the curing process... I mean, I'd trust Sargent to follow the correct drying principles before letting a painting go out to a client, but with Vincent, it really was a case of roll them up and ship them off, still partially wet. It is weird though, you'd think the watercolour version would vanish to nothing.

Mr. Snrub, decades ago, we didn't have the number system for colors. I have had the old formulas of sap green to fade, but am not sure (though I suspect) it included PB83.

Thanks to you and your team, I already painted few sunflower painting and usually had problems with lighter / darker yellow , adding white to yellow doesn’t look satisfying . Would you please explain that.

@IntheStudioArtInstruction

2 жыл бұрын

Marzieh, I'd need more information, but I suspect it was not so much adding white as perhaps the colors weren't dark enough around the areas you wanted lighter. Also, white tends to cool colors it is added to, so if areas around a color are extremely warm, that could be the reason. A third possibility is the kind of yellow you are using.

Ive been trying to learn about colours and you explain things very well. Im confused about "purple". Is Diox Purple known as Violet on a colour wheel (violet doesnt look like Diox Purple to me) ??. Also have seen it called cool but W&N say their watercolour Windsor Violet (which I think is Diox Purple) is warm. Im very confused about this. Can you help me ???????? thank you.

Lindy, the words' "purple" and "violet" are used interchangeably by most folks these days. Those who insist on a more precise language will often use "purple" when referring to pigments of a deeper value and violet when referring to the spectral color of a lighter value.

Hi Dianne - I have just purchased your full palette, I want to lay my pigments around the edge as you do and leave them as you do. Before I take that plunge, I want to know if you put tape or anything else along the edge of the wooden poche box inner edges so that the paint doesn't adhere to both the wood d inner edge AND the glass palette. You've mentioned that you occasionally scrape the paint off when dried and lay out fresh pigments agin....but I think I understand that it is dry by that time. Any problem with the adherence of the paint on the wood and the glass (plastic in your case) palette? Anything I should be cautious about? I am now anxious to proceed. Thank you for any advice.

@IntheStudioArtInstruction

Жыл бұрын

Lolita, I haven't lined either of my palettes. The paint is going to adhere to the wood and the palette, but I have no reason to remove the palette from the pochade box so that doesn't concern me. The only thing to watch for is paint build up that will keep the pochade box from closing tightly. That's why I scrape it down periodically.
