"How to Mix Beautiful Colors for Your Paintings" FREE WORKSHOP

This is wow how Elli explained about color and what you see. Everyone else I’ve watch was,” Well you mix this that and this.” What in the color world is going on, lol. You just want to cry. Elli said what colors do you see, red, blue, orange, green, etc. they are all part of the color that you want to mix. Cool, warm, forward , backwards. Dang she explained it in an instant. How much are these classes and where can I sign up. She said if everyone could paint it would be a better place, I don’t know if it was her, but I say if everyone could have her as their teacher how confident, and ready everyone would be even if they had no clue.

I love your explanations on warm and cool values and hues, but I just a bit confused on the prussian blue and ultramarine blue comparison. Maybe it's the computer colour graphics but the blue on your right looks or tends towards a violet blue and the Prussian blue on the left looks to have green in it making it warmer than the ultramarine blue mix? however the other two warm and cool hues make sense.

Goodyear morning. I am watching you from the canary Islands every day for months and hopefully I will register on your mastery program next year. 😊

I see the opposite on all the colors. Wow, am I colored blind?

Hue is another way to name local colour…ask yourself what family is that Hue.
Black and White make Grey and then use that Grey to Tone any Hue… use Black to Shade any Hue or White to Tint any Hue… this was how I was taught Colour theory.

😂😂😂I was born to be an artist. My nails are thin and always short. 😂😂😂a real disaster. I can’t wear acrylics and polish damage them. 😂😂😂❤❤❤

How to understand that the colour we are going to mix is warm before it is done ?

ha, ok... I never noticed "cool yellow" till seeing this demonstration. (charcoal artist, here. Color is challenging for me)

This is the way that I've been seeing colour my whole life! Thank you for your excellent explanation.

lol, I totally relate to paint in my nails, on my arms, on my shirt, etc. My phone also tells tales of my love of painting.

What amazing Music is Tht?

wait what :D probably just a mix up, yes cool goes back and warm goes forth, but you mixed based on on brightness/muddiness, not on temperature. Colors on the left looks much more cool than colors on the right, thou they still pop up front because they are much brighter, that is also what you mentioned in other lesson with examples of muddy paintings vs more saturated paintings. At leas thasts how i see it (and my monitor is design quality) :D temperature and pop is very relative to surrounding colors. Still happy about the lesson, thank you <3

oh how awsome to find your channel ,i watch every one you have that i can find,i am not going to do the selling yet but you give me hope ,i took my m graham oils out this morning ,i use watercolors but want to do oils again.thank you

Is there ever a situation where u would want to mix a warm with a cool color ? Also I’m not fully understanding why u would never mix black and white into a color? What if u need a more pastel look would u just use compliments instead? Thank you this was very informative!

Let’s say you have a warm yellow ball and you want to mix a relatively cooler color hue wise, for the halftones that are turning away. Let’s say it’s a slightly green-yellow. How do you know whether to mix that green-yellow with cool or warm colors? I am trying to sort out what I have learned about warm and cool hues, warm and cool relativity and warm and cool paints based on the molecular structure as you mentioned. And how and when to use them and in what situation. Also is all of this covered in the mastery program

So according to split primary palette theory the most vibrant purple is made with a warm blue and a cool red. And purple gets muddy if you only use cools or only use warms in it. Whereas oranges are most vibrant when only using warms and greens are most vibrant when mixed with all cools. So how does that play with this information? Does that mean purple is neutral? This is all super fascinating.

From Philippines...hello

Why don't these principles work with acrylics? DO they work with soft pastels?

❤

I don't get, why this does not apply to acrylics. They have the same pigments as oils?!
