YAY! Another limited colour palette video. This is one of my favourite series you do. I myself often do small series of paintings with only 3 "primaries" when I am trying to get to know new paints. I think the exercise is very educational. It's a little like applying a filter to a photograph, it gives a series of paintings a specific mood.
There are quite a few pyrrole pigments, the most ubiquitous being: pr254 (your standard middle red), pr255 (a warmer, orangey red) and pr264 (a dark, cool red).
That's what I heard too. Paints using these 3 pigments are typically named the same way they name Cad Red variations; Pyrrole Red (PR 254), Pyrrole Red Light (PR255) Pyrrole Pyrrole Deep (PR264).
I've been binging your videos this summer. They're very relaxing and informative to have playing in the background while I work. Thanks always for the great content :)
Your sky, on the left, above the buildings, using the wet on wet technique, looks like the rain, it's appropriate with this grey weather. Bravo Teoh, your sketch in ink is already incredible ! 👍🏻
What a beautiful sketch. The design/composition, the very dark of trees contrasted with all the lovely line work, is exquisite. I am always drawn first to composition and contrast, then color. I love this sketch. Also, it seems like no matter what colors you demonstrate, your work always looks good...at least to me.
Nice sketch . I never liked bismuth yellow ! It's not just chalky looking it's also dirty looking . It's better suited to a more opaque medium like acrylics but even there I avoid it . You can always dirty a clean color but you can never make a dirty color clean again .
Great review as always. That doesn't look even remotely like a lemon yellow though, and I'm glad you compared it to a real one so everyone could see the difference. Lovely painting too!
I like his pronunciation of many words, but, yeah, RED is good. Also, yes only 3 colors required. This is the most basic "limited palette" possible. Any other colors can be described as "convenience colors" because it is simply more convenient than being forced into mixing every single color. Also, you can extend the range of colors available to you by doubling this pallette to 6 colors - a warm and a cool tone of each of the primaries. As you increase the color count, you get more convenience, but at some point it's really impractical to have a large number of paints, and that is true not just for watercolor, but just about every medium (except maybe coloring books).

Thanks for the video Teoh -- nice work with the limited palette with primaries. And the sketch is incredible. Congrats.
Very nice art you created with those colors! 😊 These limited palette videos are fun to watch. Thanks Teoh.
Wow! So much detail in the sketch!
I'm surprised you didn't get a more vibrant green from using the lemon yellow and cobalt blue.

That drawing was phenomenal!!
Thanks :-)

Now that you mentioned, it does look like it

I really enjoy these limited palette videos, always fun to see what you do in them. Really nice sketch as well!
Thanks ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪
I like this triad. I was expecting the greens to be very muted down but they look lovely. I love the sketch as well!
I have a vermillion labelled 254 but I swear it must be 255. it has that lovely orange undertone and is exactly right for cut strawberries.
Interesting color combination. I like the greens. Thanks for sharing 😊
Yes indeed it is full of info and helpful too, thank you Teoh
Hi! This mixing series are very helpful.😉 Could you show yellow ochre + permanent red + cobalt blue? Have a nice day!
Nice sketch . I never liked bismuth yellow ! It's not just chalky looking it's also dirty looking . It's better suited to a more opaque medium like acrylics but even there I avoid it . You can always dirty a clean color but you can never make a dirty color clean again .
I don't like Bismuth as well. \ (•◡•) /
Another amazing job, Teoh!
Thanks 😁
i never thought to do a limited pallete kind of challenge for myself. i'm rather new to watercolors so this would be great practice for myself.
You'll learn a lot \ (•◡•) /
Great review as always. That doesn't look even remotely like a lemon yellow though, and I'm glad you compared it to a real one so everyone could see the difference. Lovely painting too!
Daniel Smith Lemon Yellow looks most like lemon 😁
Is the sizing in the paper repelling the pigment? That looks difficult to manage.
The paper works fine with watercolour. It's not the best but I still enjoy using it very much.
Is the Strathmore visual journal mixed media or water color paper?
It's the watercolour one.
I noticed that when you always swatch colors the paint avoids(?) the ink, is it a problem? And if so, is it because of the paint or the ink?
I'm not sure what that happens sometimes.
What a coincidence. I have been searching what color i have to pick for 3 primary color
Nice
Why are you using such a big brush?
To cover a large area?
I see you are painting wit a large brush little items... i should go to a found 2 or 4
I don't really mind not painting within the lines since my style is semi-loose. Painting small items is indeed easier with smaller brushes.
Hhhhh if i would do That THE whole drawing would be the same colour. I like your style. I wish I could do that too...
What a great drawing Teoh - not so keen on the product.
I don't know about anyone else but I enjoy the way he says Red LOL also so technically you only need a 3 color pallete then
I like his pronunciation of many words, but, yeah, RED is good. Also, yes only 3 colors required. This is the most basic "limited palette" possible. Any other colors can be described as "convenience colors" because it is simply more convenient than being forced into mixing every single color.

@@gbenother8755 that's what I thought I want to make a small palette with the 3 primary colors and white for my skintone
Your ink seems to be repelling watercolor
Yeah, it's weird. But I think there might be issues with parts of the paper surface.
