Hi there, Liron here!
In today’s video we’ll answer the question - how dark should you paint?
I’m sure you found yourself in a situation when you were going to paint a shape, a shadow, a detail, and toy just couldn’t tell - how dark should I go?
Well, fear not! In this video I’ll provide three possible approaches & solutions to this problem.
Here’s the gist of the options:
1. Match the values
2. Use 3 DISTINCT values
3. Consider the COMPOSITION
4. Bonus concept - the “Unfocal” point 😁
I hope you find these helpful, keep painting - you can do this!

Your teaching style is so practical Liron , I never feel like you’re talking to someone else. Even the terminology you use is very easily understood and that makes you such a wonderful teacher !
That's cool, going to practice mixing four shades. Another tip I've heard is lighter for far away and dark for close up.
I'm slowly understanding subconsciously the importance of values...either dark or light ...thanks a lot👍
Im obsessed with replicating "The Lonely Mountain" from the Rankin/Bass The Hobbit cartoon movie. I also love trying to do active volcanos.... give me all the darkness.
your videos are pure gold❤
For new beginners, I think the 3 Values tip is great. I think doing some 3 value monochrome sketches will help me to then apply it with colour.
Thanks Liron. Helpful and very useful as always.
I tried to paint that painting by sandstrom a while ago.Will have another go,captivating.
This is SO helpful. Being strategic with shading!!
TY Liron , I always struggle with this so I’m taking notes lol ❤️
I started wth WC relatively recent, since a couple of years (thought of myself more as a drawer). And I must say being afraid of the dark is a thing! Especially my first tries definitely have an overall too light look. Getting bolder now. Thinking in terms of tones helps. Also on a very practical level, good 100% cotton paper; the crappy papers I started to experiment with just couldn't take multiple washes.
excellent information! I love the whys!!!
Wow! What a revelation. I love your style of painting, and I hope to achieve such lively effects!
