Thank you for this. I have not had any "formal" lessons in art at all, but your videos have expanded my knowlege so much that I can't really say how appreciated they are.
I resisted the urge to buy more colors and thought to myself I will go home and watch this video first. So glad i did because i have lots of nice colors. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Wonderful demonstration of color merging. Having a selective color seeing or recognition impediment I still see the shades and values and hues, but if someone asks me to name red, green, brown, purple, or blue, yellow or orange, 25% of the time I'll choose the wrong word. Hit or miss I'll just have to rely on reading the labels first.
"Primaries" out of the tube are often mixtures of pigments, optimised to give the theoretically expected behaviour when mixed to give greens and oranges. Something has to give: the purples, which come out muddy. Also, blacks tend to green up yellows better than blues, as your wheel shows, and this is for the same underlying reason. Tube primaries also fail to yield the full range of tertiaries expected on the basis of true primaries. This is remedied by keeping a nice additional set of ombres, siennas, and ochres.
Absolutely, but many paint lines do include the true ‘printing process’ primaries, sometimes packaged as a special set, you just have to find them and they’re really not what you’d expect. Eg red- what you need is magenta, a pinky purple red not what we think of as red which is really dark orange. Most sets of paints etc don’t include it because they don’t want you to be able to mix any colour from 3 tubes, they want you to buy 30 tubes 🙄
I LOVED this lesson. I've known and applied this stuff for years and I still learned so much by watching the video. If you don't mind my requesting, it would be amazing if you could show us more examples of color context and how to bring out or dull down colors by putting them in different environments. Thank you and have a lovely day.
I am used to working with acrylics and have kept a color diary of mixes I use on my different paintings. I write down what the colors from the tube that I use for each mixed color I have in my diary ( I used a small sketchbook ). I got some gouache lately and want to do the same with that and watercolor using a watercolor sketchbook. Enjoyed the video. Always good to review the basics once in awhile.
Thanks so much! I have had a mental block when it comes to mixing paint and figuring it all out. But you put it in such a way I totally understand now!!!! Thanks! Love all your videos!
Thank you so much for your explanation, I had no idea how important this is, as I have had no formal training, but, have spent many hours, mixing mud !!
I really appreciate the way you teach this. I figure if you don't study your colors you won't make wise choices. I for one want my experiences to be positive even if the painting is a failure. At least I will be able to narrow my errors down without adding color choice bombs to the mix.
This was excellent. I really was not aware of the importance of complementary colours ...you have opened my eyes in this respect. " Need to know when and when not to use them .......... " try to improve your colour sense, experiment with complementary colour...." good points. Your tutorial are so informative and easy to follw..Thanks.
I did these exercises in the summer last year. Just sitting in the sun, mixing my colours and also see what came out if I added more water. I enjoyed myself for hours and some of the colours really amazed me. I was able to make a vibrant turquoise from a kind of yellow ocre and a light blue colour. Never expected that! It makes an interesting colour library as well. Thanks for yet another helpfull and fun tutorial.
Great video! One of the first things I was taught in 2D Design, a required class as an art major, and also one of the first things I teach people who are having trouble grasping color. A cool trick with how compliments also work is if you stare at a color long enough, if you move your eyes to a white sheet of paper, you will see its compliment a la Jasper Johns's "Flag."
I'm relatively new to watercolor and color mixing in general and this video was very helpful! I hope to get to making my own color wheel for reference soon. Thank you for the lesson.
Hey Steve! That is just about the prettiest Color Wheel I have seen an artist make! Good job Dood! THANKS! I have a Cheap Joe Porcelain Pallet and have a Plethora of colors that I guessed at, and so I will just have to send you a photo of my mesterpiece of colors, and a list of what you are viewing! Pray for me, for I am a color sinner or skimmer? HA HA!
Thanks for demonstrating these because mixing colors has always been a nightmare as I sat dumbfounded about what I did wrong when a color didn't quite turn out as planned. Being as paints were precious and finance low, experimentations became far and few between. Could watch you mix color for hours as it helps understand the cause and effect of them. It's funny when I find myself talking to you as the video progresses and I agree with what's said or get what you mean. It's so real and immersive that it's like having you here in my living room. I dearly miss my art teachers and this is such a huge help. There is nothing like having an experienced artist as a friend and mentor.
I admire people like you, that besides their daily occupation ,they spend time to make videos and instruct other people without gain nothing at all. Tks a lot.
Loved seeing your color wheel, I have (recently) seen several people making color wheels online to teach and they are not correct or accurate, yours is spot on!
Good basic lesson and refresher. We all need to think about and put those ideas into practice. I'm going to share the video with my watercolor painting friends.
Thanks sooo much for your educational tips videos Steve! These type videos help me so much. I've been watercolor painting on my own with only instructions and tutorials from artists like yourself for about a year and painting daily this spring and summer. Can't believe how much I've improved and learned. 😋 THANKS AGAIN! Appreciate so much!
I'm fairly new to watercolor and have only learned - "Don't mix your complimentary colors - you'll make mud!". Well, you just demonstrated what beautifully rich shades of "mud" can be created from complimentary colors. Thank you! I'm a new subscriber!
+Cherie Wolfe Yes, mud tends to have an opaque quality to it that's unattractive. Usually from too many colors in the mix and more opaque pigments. When two transparent colors make up the mix, the neutral tones can be quite nice. Welcome to the channel!
Finally did my homework! I made my wheel with the colors I have and it was a great experiment. I have only a few tubes. They all mixed well except I really couldn't get a decent purple out of my phthalo blue and my cadmium red. I do have a tube of opera pink which produced a much more purple purple. Anyway I think I need another red to create a more successful color wheel experience. Great fun mixing colors! Thank you!
+Nancy Werner Yes, purple is a strange one. Cad Red doesn't work well. Best to use a red that skews towards blue. Phthalo blue skews towards green. Ultramarine works better on the blue side. Ultramarine Blue and Aliz Crimson permanent make a fine purple.
wow!! i'm learning a lot from your videos.. i'm really curious about watercolors and i bought my first set yesterday!! There are soooo many good artists!! And the results you can achieve with this medium are so surprising and diverse!! i'm loving it!!
Thank you so much for this! Your gentle and patient instruction is what I need; the simple way you take the mystery out of things helps egg me on...You are my hero!
Terrific! I am only starting to make the move to pro watercolours. I recently arranged my tubes around a Munsell hue circle, that was very informative. I am also learning about the diff between visual and mixing relationships, for example green is visually opposite magenta, but plain old red will mix a better neutral grey.
ty for posting scriptures at the end it warms my heart knowing you are a Christian! to God be all the glory!! ! Happy Easter!!! thanks for teaching me 🙌
Excellent color wheel presentation and complementary color mixing video. Very helpful exercise to become intimately familiar with the paints we have and others we may want to get and explore further.
Thank you so much for this video! I understand the color-wheel to a point, but I never really grasped the whole complementary colors and what that meant. This was so incredibly helpful! I'm going to have to go play with some paint now :D
These videos are so helpful! I'm currently a freshman in highschool and because of my schedule this year, I can't join my school's art group, but these videos are very helpful and educational and I'll be practicing whole year and experimenting so I can come kinda prepared. I got water brushes and they inspired me to do art. I'm sad I didn't find your videos earlier so I could've enjoyed middle school art class a whole lot more! 😊
This video was extremely helpful today. Basically, I did exactly what you did in this video and created my color wheel with my newly acquired M Graham paints ( your 8 color choices for a basic palette). I started mixing based on your demonstration in this video. It WORKS! :0). This was a great exercise that everyone should do with their palette. While I’ve always worked with good quality paint (Daniel Smith) it’s a good exercise to set up a new pallet with the M Graham 8. It’s slimmed down the palette a great deal but I think I’m getting more luminosity with less tubes of paint and it makes me work more at mixing and getting new combinations that I love. I also appreciated your listing of the colors that are more of opaque and perhaps I would want to eliminate from my palate, a few of which I had identified by myself already. Thanks Steve as always great video and exercise.
I'd like to see and learn more about the cool vs. warm variety of each primary color (i.e. Lemon and Hansa yellow) and how they can "play nice" with their team or make mud if used with a complement from the other team.
Wonderful watercolor instructions. You always give so much thought in your teachings. ( glad too see you are using M Graham watercolor ) I like them but I do not see other artist using them.
I'm a beginner and your videos are the best ones I've tried!! It's a challenge for me but I'm determined to keep going and it will get easier the more I practice. Never had color theory and your explanation was easily understood. Thanks for your series!
I've looked at a few color theory videos and yours is by far my favorite! I love watching all your videos actually and I love your puns lol. Thanks for all you do!
Thanks! I understand color theory pretty well, but with my new Van Gough transparent paints arriving tomorrow, I have to have that watercolor wheel too. Isnt buy with one click dangerous? It is for me! LOL! I need a good reference tool, have needed one for a long time! Love this video. I hate my paints- all opaque cake colors! YUK! Next month, 2 good brushes! I am a mixed media fan too . That's dangerous!
My teacher went over this but you did a better job or maybe he hasn't gotten to it yet. I been doing watercolor for years but never had formal color theory, Thanks so much
Your teaching method makes things so easy to understand! Could you name the colors in your palate in their position and how to you arrange the cool and warm of each color. It's hard for me to tell the warm and cool shades of blues and some greens. The reds and yellows are easy for me to get, but I struggle with purples and greens in their warm and cool bias. Thanks, LOVE your videos!
Oh my gosh! You are just the best, Steve. The color wheel has always intimidated me and I had no idea how to use the thing. In this fantastic tutorial, you explained it so I can understand it, AND I am inspired to experiment just as you suggested.Thank you so much, and Happy New Year
Fantastic video! I have a little swatch book I made out of watercolor paper, but I didn't think to do the complimentary swatches (which is weird since I am primarily a watercolor painter and I've done this with my acrylic paints) I can't wait to get busy and do this. Thank you!
Thank you for this. I have not had any "formal" lessons in art at all, but your videos have expanded my knowlege so much that I can't really say how appreciated they are.
And, set it up like a clock. Said the first person in 30+ years of art classes. You, sir, are the best teacher ever. Thank you.
Double thumbs up for the paint tubes complimenting each other.
+Angie Alnidawi 😃
literally was gonna say the same thing, didn't even watch the video yet and thumbs up!!
I did the same!
This color wheel is NOT for mixing. Its for putting my own existing colors on the wheel and determine their complement.
The Mind of Watercolor Thank you for this very useful video. What colors would you use for mixing, then?
Funny and brilliant videos! Thank you so much for making this world a better place. You are inspiring so many people to create art!
I resisted the urge to buy more colors and thought to myself I will go home and watch this video first. So glad i did because i have lots of nice colors. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Very useful tutorial on color mixing. Just what I need! Thanks!
You, sir, are a FANTASTIC teacher! So easy to follow, and your sense of humour is adorable!
Nice clear explanation without the fear mongering about making mud. I'll try this, thank you.
Excellent!
Thank you, Steve.
😂😆 *You made my day with that intro! "Why thank you, but I don't have any eyes. I'm a tube of paint." Bahaha* 😅
Thank you for reminding me to get back to basic theory from time to time. It's like that little thrill you get when you start something new.
+Gaëtan Charlebois 👍
Hi Steve! I really enjoy the videos and watercolor lessons. Take care and God bless.

+Kotorichan Yes, I will. I do try to mention complements when I'm actually using them and painting but the comment is usually fleeting.
I was so very lucky to have been taught basic color theory from the start. You made a complex topic easy to grasp. Thank you
Watching this for the 5th time , if only my art teacher was this clear !
I am used to working with acrylics and have kept a color diary of mixes I use on my different paintings.

Same mental block; same success with this video. Carolyn, just across the line in Tryon, NC
Thank you very much for this video on the color wheel. I made one myself and it really helps me when it comes to mixing colors. Thanks again 😊.
Thank you so much for your explanation, I had no idea how important this is, as I have had no formal training, but, have spent many hours, mixing mud !!

Best video yet on the colour wheel.
Your videos are the most helpful I have found. You're a fantastic teacher and a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
+Belle Papiers thanks so much. Glad to hear it!

Thanks but I am being largely supported now through my videos. I started that way though. Went two years by doing it on the side.
Still, very much appreciated! you are a great teacher!

Thanks for this - I can't wait to try it! Just bought 12 tubes of Talons Van Gogh watercolour to practice and eventually make cards.
Hi! I had a lot of fun mixing what i have, and discovering what my colors turn out in to, just by mixing them one to another....
Thanks!
Thanks sooo much for your educational tips videos Steve! These type videos help me so much.

Thanks very much and I always get some great fashion tips from Reese....gonna do it!
+Glen Cuchine Reese is glad to oblige! 😉
Great presentation - very informative and encourages playing with color. Think that's the best way to learn.
It looks like you can get the earth toned colors like the ochres and sienna and umbers, only transparent instead of opaque
Awesome information thank you 👍
Going to play with my watercolors... Enjoyed this simple example.
Thanks for sharing... ~ Karla

Wonderful watercolor instructions. You always give so much thought in your teachings. ( glad too see you are using M Graham watercolor ) I like them but I do not see other artist using them.
They don't seem to be as widely available in local art stores only the bigger ones. Many people just buy what they can find.
