    Titanium white blows out the colours you’re working with, and unless you want pastels, it’s really not the most useful. Naples yellow makes a great brightener though like I get it, it’s for the meme, but this isn’t a Bob Ross video and you’re just spreading shit information so what did you really expect

    Something to keep in mind when mixing colors is whether you're working with a warm color or a cool color. I was taught when you lay out your palette, you want to have a warm red (usually cad red), cool red (I use alizarin crimson), warm blue (cerulean), cool blue (ultramarine), warm yellow (cad yellow), and cool yellow (lemon yellow)-- and white and a few earth tones, of course. If you mix a warm and a cool, you're gonna get a more subdued, gray color (which isn't always a bad thing!), like the purple he mixed with the cad red and ultramarine. Pay close attention to the temperature of the color you want to mix. If you keep this in mind, you can mix anything with 7 colors.

    Their is no such a thing really, the whole warm vs cool colour is BS. A colour is simply a pigment, it is neither cool or warm. Assigning a "temperature" or more correctly an emotional response to a colour is subjective, based on the colour it is being placed against. Getting the right colour by learning to match the value, hue and chroma.

I love warm, vibrant greens a lot so having it in my kit is fun, and it was one of the first golden fluid paints I bought because it was a unique mix I hadn't seen much before and I loved it a lot. I think putting it in a beginner kit would be a bit silly though, and teaching transparent vs opaque colors for mixing is better. Goauche can be so hard for this reason. Black is not necessary for most people though I agree, I think for beginner artists you should remove black from your color selection entirely, lock it in a box, and when you've mixed a lot of different blacks you can pull out a few different black paints and experiment.

    I started with watercolor and when I saw his set up it looks like a dual primary plus burnt umber/sienna which is literally what good starting watercolor kits look like. I don’t know why acrylic kits are so weird and wild. I’m knew to acrylics but it seems acrylic paint makers don’t like dual primaries at all. Starter sets instead tend to have a green you don’t need, not and only one red or blue. It’s weird to me.

    In art the primary colors are usually said to be red blue and yellow, altough the red used is usually too orange and the blue is too purple. Cyan and magneta is closer to the true primary colors. While mixing colors you have to be very specific with the type of colors you use, if you try to mix purple and the red has even a tiniest bit of yellow hue the result will be muddy

    If you're looking for more popping colors, the CMYK color scheme is way more efficient when it comes to mixing colors - as you can see in the video. It's just simple, since these are colors used for printing and mixing more different tones tend to get darker, muddier etc. The orange for example, mixing cadmium yellow with magenta will give you the vibrant orange you want - the muddy orange is the result of an already desaturated red. I had advanced painting + printing classes in school and in some we were only allowed to use cyan, magenta + yellow and had to mix ALL the other colors ourselves and it worked! Really nice showing that in your video! I wish I had known that from the start :D

  • @ckdesign429
    @ckdesign4295 жыл бұрын

    For anyone wondering if they need to stick to the brands in this video to get these colors, you don't just get the right pigments. Primary Cyan = 15:3 - Phthalo blue (Green Shade) + Titanium White Green Gold = PY3 Hansa Yellow + PY150 Nickel Azo + PG36 Phthalo Green (Yellow Shade) Magenta = PR122 Quinacridone Magenta (REALLY IMPORTANT many are PV19 which will NOT produce the same results)

    These are great colors. However is a long time nature painter, I have found a few additionals that you might want to consider. Hookers green and chromium oxide green are really good for trees. Yellow ochre and Indian red add a touch of realism. Prussian Blue, and alizarin crimson are deep accent colors. And a new one by Golden that I've been using is Titan buff. Just thought you might want to try some new things.

    Mixing, mostly. If I'm mixing the same base hue often and I have something close on-hand, I put some of that on the palette to help keep me sane-ish. Raw umber or burnt sienna, or sap green are probably my usual additions. Not that I don't have a stockpile of options should they be useful. (The first step in solving a problem is admitting you have one. I don't have have one. Nope. Nuh-uh. No probl...ooh, orange.)

    Thanks for this video--I'm newly retired and getting into painting again after a several year hiatus--you've saved me a ton of money--trying to decide what colors i need to start a basic palette is daunting. Thanks again.

    I believe you when you say you really don’t need all the colors. It typically depends on what you are going to paint. Maybe we only need primary colors, and that could be mix with one another. Thanks for the techniques you shared! Also, I love and sooooo helpful when you explained all color mixture.

    It was very interesting to see there was no black in your line-up...not so long ago, it would've been there. I've seen you use it to some really dramatic effects, too. Enjoy seeing what all can be created by mixing. I have like a zillion colours in the oils I use, but still mix about everything I paint with. One thing I like to do is mix silver with some of the paints, for certain applications, to get a metallic colour. It really gives a great look to magenta and the Pthalo colours.

    Always changing! I'll probably make another video a year from now why I like some different color! :) but on a side note, black hasn't left my workspace, I use a clever color with my oils. I'll be chatting about it at some point here

    You just need black, white, then a warm and cool version of each of the primaries. But it's nice to have some pure secondaries and browns. Having more colours means less faffing about with mixing.

Beautiful colours with limited paint supplies. All I need do now is to experience which supplier to use on a limited budget. Love all the guidance Chuck .Thank you
