Ooo great tutorial. Thankyou. I luv muted colors and greys .

LIron, you are as entertaining as a good Netflex movie!! Even watching you mix grays is pure fun!!

Love new greys. A WAY underrated colour!

I love grey and nuances in gray tones painted by masters like Zbukvic. It is a skill. I have to paint more!

I also like considering texture when mixing a grey. For example, a grey with phthalo blue would be smooth and transparent while one with Ultramarine would be granular. There are some textures I struggle to work with. Phthalo Blue (GS) + any semi-transparent Scarlet is a good neutral but I find it difficult to apply on paper.

Very helpful! One of your best! Thank you Liron!

Thank you Paul 🙏😊

Love your tutorials.

my favorite neutral gray I've found has been mixing Payne's gray and Sepia. The ratio decides how warm or cool the gray is. Sometimes I will mix violet and viridian, but that's for grays that I don't want to be entirely inorganic looking.

Thank you Liron! These short mini lessons are so helpful.

Very very helpful explanation!

Thanks, Liron, my favorite colour! Very useful video!

I love to mix grays! My recent favourite is a transparent mix with phthalo blue, quin. rose and a bit of nickel azo yellow.😊

I love making my own grays. It's worth the practice. After all, most shadows do have color to them.

thank you Liron!!! I'm going to use this more now

Thank you Liron , very useful information 😊

Thank you, this is a very important video!

Nice water color 😃

Thank you for your valued insight and expertise

Interesting mixes!

Thanks. This is one of the most valuable things I've learned in my watercolor journey.

You are awesome love your work Today going to break out of comfort zone and try this. You have convinced me I can do it

Very helpful! Thank you!

Great info for beginners like me, much appreciated

Very timely. I have a grey sky to paint and I am unhappy with my choices of premade grey. I can’t wait to create my own and make those grey skies alive with hints of colour. 💕

A very necessary basic. I came up with a beautiful gray by accident and that's when I found your video. Yay! Now I can practice doing it intentionally. Thank you.

Great tips and great teacher

Very informative for me, as I am a relatively new painter

That"s great !

Amazing, L! Ty!!

@@LironYan Moonglow from Daniel Smith, as well as Sodalite Genuine at times, are my go-tos for adding something in shadowy areas, even though I know how to mix grays. I don't paint as muted as Liron does, but if I did, my approach would look awkward!

Would you show how to mix browns without using premade brown (sepia, burnt umber for instance)

I agree a vid would be nice, also one for good greens but to second what James above said, an orange and a blue. I recently ditched convenience browns (and greens) preferring the nuance of self mixed ones. For brown, I’ve had much success with 1) PB60 (indanthrone blue) and PO71 (Transparent Pyrrol Orange) and 2) PBr7 (burnt sienna) and PB29 (ultramarine) in a 2:1 ratio. They both make great browns. From a burnt umber, to raw umber, to almost black. Good luck!

Thanks Liron, could you please suggest a set of brushes for a beginner

@LironYan

Жыл бұрын

I love Escoda & Lebenzon brushes (: And another good brand is Silver Black Velvet. As for a specific set, it depends on your needs. But as a general place to start - the most versatile you could get is with a round brush that has a good point. 2 of these (one large and one small) and you’re set! (: The specific sizes will depend on the size you paint. I recommend starting small (around the equivalent of an A4 page, or even half of that) - so brushes sized ~14 and ~8 should be good 😁 Hope this helps!

Dommage que ce ne soit pas sous titré en français car ça m'air très intéressant comme sujet Mr Liron !

Dirty palette makes me uncomfortable and I have urge to immediately clean it. How much greys do you use, to tolerate that uggly uninspiring mess?

Haha 😂 Not grays, but rather nuanced colors. So for example - 80-90% red, and the rest is all the other primaries / random colors.

Hi Liron, I keep revisiting this video. I have such horrible lighting that I can't see colors correctly. I bought a clamp on lamp with a natural light bulb (because it was my only option at the time-work in dining room with limited space), but it just isn't enough. And I don't know where to correctly place the light. Do you have any videos that address this? I haven't been successful in finding that yet. Any suggestions would be welcome. :)

All my paints dried out. What should I do? Use the holidays to remember the opposing colors. Christmas, red and green. Easter, purple and yellow. Blue and orange?? Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny have been arguing about this forever. Our old police cars were blue and orange. And remember, the color brown is really very dark orange. That will help you to know that you can add some blue to neutralize it.
