All the other teachers on TH-cam say there is a warm side of the palette, yellow, orange, red and a cool side, green and blue. You are the first person that has ever really explained cool and warm to me! I love love love your book💕💕💕💕💕
I've been considering getting an agent/manager. Arts storefronts has approached me, but their plans are quite costly (although they seem to cover a lot). Getting a coach, like you might be my next step! Thanks for making this content!
Ah, by surprise, your TITLE caught my interest before discovering it is you. Almost finished with my White Crowned Sparrow painting, Strange, as a child I would SEEK the warm sun shinning through the window on a Black table., My world , hour after hour to look out the outside world. to stay QUIET, not make a mess to eat, or play, or make a sound. THAT SUN Was WARM. I would see the seasons change, the colors change. I was not allowed to play in the SUN, or I would get too dark, being part Native Indian, Insult to my mothers side of the family tree. Lilac trees would come into bloom, cool colors, browns. Yes, I see it now. That childhood of hours, days, years until she gave that black table away. My world taken away when we moved to project. COLD. No wild life.
Thanks, Mr Baumann, this book is getting on my wish list. I lost your beautiful videos a bit out of sight recently. I bless you and your creativity. Best wishes
Can you please tell me , if i would like to sell my paintings online not in any gallery just online, is it good to take 2 dollars per square inch if i lived in India...?
Strong disagree. The example you give of orange being cool is highly misleading. Everything in art is relative, including color temperature. There are warm and cool versions of each color as you explained. Lemon yellow is cool RELATIVE to other yellows but it is still warmer than green or blue. Pthalo red rose is cool compared to cadmium red medium but it is still warmer than violet, blue, or green. So if you use a cool yellow and a cool red to make orange, it may be cooler than other orange mixtures, but it is still a RELATIVELY warm color. It is warmer than violet, blue, green, etc. It is even warmer than yellow. The shadow of an orange sunset is most likely somewhere between violet and blue depending upon atmospheric conditions. Both of those colors are cooler than even the coolest orange. Even if the shadow is a violet color with a lot of red in it, on the color wheel it leans to the warm side, but again, it is cooler that the "cool" orange of the sunset. Everything is relative. Every color lies on a continuum. If you start with any color, lets take cobalt blue just for an example, and you add just one little drop of yellow. It shifts the color ever so slightly towards green which is a warmer color. The result is a slightly warmer color RELATIVE to the original color. But it is still a cool color. It is still blue or even maybe green if you added enough yellow. But still a cool color. It is cooler than any violet, red, orange, or yellow. Try the same thing with cad red. It is a fairly warm color. Add one drop of yellow and it shifts the color ever so slightly toward orange. It makes the color ever so slightly warmer. So cad red is cooler RELATIVE to the new color, but it is still a warm color. It is warmer than green, blue, violet, etc. Let's consider a red barn, half in light, half in shadow. The shadow side will still be quite red. So does that mean the shadow is warm? Yes...and no. It is on the warm side of the color wheel. In isolation it may be a warm color. It is warmer than blue or green or even violet. But RELATIVE to the sunlit side of the barn, it is a cooler color, albeit red. The sunlit side will be warmer, it will lean toward orange. The shadow side will be cool, it will lean toward violet. Even if it is still firmly in the red family. It is the RELATIVE temperature relationship that needs to be considered. Warm light does result in a cool shadow RELATIVE to the light. And with cool light the shadow will be warmer RELATIVE to the light.
Will you go on believing that for as long as you want, after spending 30 years of teaching students every day of my life, and writing a book on the subject I think I'm a little bit more of an expert than you are maybe you should consider taking my advice rather than trying to school me. Good luck with all of that!
@@StefanBaumann I am also a professional artist and have been doing if full time as my only source of income for nearly 30 years and I also teach regularly. I have won several awards and my work is in collections internationally. I am an avid plein air painter where I study light, color, and atmosphere. I am very adept at seeing and mixing accurate colors and values. So I think I'll continue to study light and color from life, thank you very much.
Dear @@StefanBaumann. How would you paint the following, regarding color temperature: A room, with objects in the room, the objects having a (diffusely) lit side (value = 6) and a shadow side (value = 4), the light coming through a tiny window from outside, where part of the landscape is in full sunlight (value = 9), and the other part of the landscape is in relative shadow (value = 7). In this dilemma (where the lit parts in the room are darker than the shadow parts outside), are the lit parts in the room warm or cool? Conversely, are the shadows outside warm or cool (seeing that the outside shadows are lighter than the light parts inside)?

Great fun. I remember your talking about temperature, but I didn't get. Great to hear the result of your research.

Thank you for all the knowledge you provide...excitedly waiting for your book in the mail! Hoping to be able attend a workshop in the near future. ❤
Stefan what you said about painting orange in a sunset as opposed to lemon yellow and red is very instructive. Will try it and report
Thanks, Mr Baumann, this book is getting on my wish list. I lost your beautiful videos a bit out of sight recently. I bless you and your creativity. Best wishes
Big fan ❤ waiting on my autographed book. I know I am going to love it!
I love you!
I love you more
Thankyou...explains all.
Cute
I got the Lemon Yellow, but what Red are you saying you use? It sounds like you are saying Phthalo Red Gray?
Thalo Red Rose
@@StefanBaumann Thank you sir
Can you please tell me , if i would like to sell my paintings online not in any gallery just online, is it good to take 2 dollars per square inch if i lived in India...?

Thank you Stefan. Good advice as always. Enjoying the book very much! 🖌🎨
