This was the first Marco B. video I've seen that confused the crap outta me. I need to watch this one like 9 more times.
100/10 recommend his Color Survival Guide class. Totally worth every penny. Haven't met anyone to date that has a better breakdown of color and values.
I’ve been thinking to buy it
It really helps that you comment this
@@tamuanimations I'm glad I could steer you in the right direction!
There's a lot of information here. The parts that I get lost on are the "pull" and "gravity well" concepts. It's not clear why and how, so when I have to make similar choices myself, I won't really know what to do. It would be super helpful to have this great observational collection of concepts broken down a bit more so I can actually learn the process. The paths you show on the color wheel are not obvious to me which to use, when, and why. I have no doubt you are right, because your results are amazingly convincing. Thanks you for your excellent videos, Marco. I have watched many of them and enjoyed them all. Thought I would take a moment to give you feedback from a struggling student of yours.
@4:30 There is probably a very big patch of mountain face (off canvas) getting a lot of sun on the left of this scene , and this is the light source that's creating the horizontal glow that that protrusion of rock is catching.
Thank you Marco; of all the color research I’ve sought; your understanding and explanations have always made the most sense to me over the past few years. Appreciate your time to make this video; like all the rest you’ve done.
Your videos are absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for posting them. What a privilege to have access to quality instruction. I'm very grateful to be alive in this generation.
Can you post your part of the collar soon?? It's been a while
Easily the best, most intuitive explaination for color theory my god
This was amazing. I always lessen something when you talk about colour. (Or about anything else for that matter.)
Neat. So roughly speaking, base color plus light color at like polar vectors
It was an enlightenment to see and understand this video. Thanks!
Yes, I have your course "Color Surviving Kit" and I learned a lot. Thank You!
2:06 My colours don't wiggle wiggle
One of my biggest art flexes is I have Marco Bucci as my teacher.
I wanted to study art, then i had a brain hemorrhage in the last year, which left me witch a blind spot. since then, i decided to focus on music (it gives me equal joy). seeing this really motivates me to start painting again. when i began painting a couple of years ago, i began by painting landscapes and quickly moved to figuarative stuff. maybe it is time to start with landscapes again.
You forgot to mention one important thing!
If you're using Photoshop, you have to switch to LAB color mode when drawing. It makes colors a lot less wonky to work with, much more accurate to the nature, allowing colors to mix well
thank you
This is amazing! I am going to be buying this course in a month from now/
Holy crap!thank you so much for this video!!
You were born to teach man gj
Amazing, your lessons are so good man!! thank you for the video
u make the best art tutorial on the entire youtube imo btw ❤and that is a fact just want to let u know lol
Love your explanations Marco! Everytime I'm in a pinch with colour theory, I always come back to your channel.
You rock!
Always a great job man. Thanks
Love those! Thanks
art collab video?!
Hello,
Sorry it's taken me this long. I've been on parental leave since receiving the painting in October. Because I produce videos alone, it's been tough to get anything of quality done with a baby crawling around my studio. I'm returning to work on March 1st, at which point I will put all of my time into getting the collab done and posted (the video is currently about 25% finished.)
I'm giving myself a deadline: *Friday, March 10.* See you then!
@@marcobucci awesome just making sure it didnt get lost or something ahah cant wait
I might have to watch this a hundred times 😂...
This is very informative.
Great video!
Alright dude.. you know that the art collab is more than just you right? You’re stalling everyone involved in the project. Let’s go
No shit, i know it takes time but holyy!
What’s this about?
@@dylanduke1075 there’s 2 big YT art collabs. This dude and another French guy have had the painting in their possession for almost three months now. Stop the entire process dead in its tracks.

The art god💕
I feel like the day my brain can actually do the logic I'll have figure all this out by trial and error anyway lmao
When is the Art Collab Video? :)
Where is the art collab?
Here's a few of them....
Here ARE a few of them.....
I don't understand. from the painting skin tones and how light affects color (your video on proko), you said that same saturation from local color and light in same warm/cool category, will not reduce the saturation, and only pull the local color towards the light, but in this, the result is not only moving towards the light, but add the saturation, making the object surpassing the saturation of the light even. Which one is correct, this one or the other one? Or both are correct and I'm missing something important?
I hope you or anyone good enough on this subject read my question because it drives me insane.
isnt sunlight white? i mean, why do we perceive snow as white if it's hit by yellow light?
Won't it be yellow?
Thank you for this in depth lesson 👍, so helpful
Any updates on the collaboration please ?

Marco thankyou for your reply, I don't expect anyone to rush a piece of art, I would like to see if you can tie this collaboration together as I think some have stamped there work rather then "collabing" together
@@joehoughton11 I do have something planned for my contribution that - I hope - will help tie the painting together on a narrative level!
If this painting is in wyoming or utah in fall or winter the sun could actually be that low in day time.
After watching this video...I still dont understand color....lol im screwed
Ten huh collab ????

@@marcobucci I have a two year old i understand ! Just looking forward to seeing how you tackle this, good luck and I appreciate the reply !
How is this video free
But wait, why should the sun light (even saturated as in the afternoon) add saturation to the local color? If a local color lit by a colored light changes in the way you said (the curve pulled into greys) that light should de-saturate the local color and not the opposite, am I wrong? In fact saturated colors are usually found near the change between light and shadow so the lit part is less saturated. Help pls :(
I'm also stuck in the same question found any answers yet?
lol sigh i feel like this is yrs ahead of my art comprehension
This painting is my desktop background
I’m a hobbyist and don’t have as much time to spend developing my technique, but I always feel like your videos give me a “shortcut” for a lack of a better term, or at least give me great direction. I’m definitely going to try and study this.
Less of a short cut and more like clarity.
@@pronoydutta614 yes!
Hey everyone - I see all the comments about my tardiness with the collab. TLDR: It will be up by *Friday, March 10!*
EDIT: It's up! th-cam.com/video/3Qn7fqWmIfA/w-d-xo.html
[End edit. Original post below.]
I'm sorry it's taken me so long; this was not my intention when I accepted the painting. I've been on parental leave (as you may know from Aaron's video), and while I did begin making the video while taking care of my infant son (initially aiming for a February release), I found that my production quality was dropping, due to the many obligations of parenthood, and I do not want to turn in a sub-par contribution! (I hadn't yet painted the physical piece; I stopped before I got to that point.)
I am officially back to work at the end of February, at which point I promise to put *all* of my time into getting this done. As stated above, my personal deadline is *Friday, March 10.* I know there's some who've already lost faith in me, and others who are wary, but I promise everyone it will be the same quality production I always strive for on my channel.
See you on March 10th!
Any art collab news?

This didn’t solve my color blindness, I want my 11 minutes back. 😢
I’m a year late and several doll hairs short, but paint anyways, and I think you will make some amazing masterpieces with unusual colors. So you will be different than millions of others. I’d say it could be your superpower
He was so technical about it, what are you talking about!
Great video! The way I see it, the configuration that mimics a rotated sky 4:44 might be due to the shape of the cliffs: The most reflected light they receive might not just be from the ground, but also from the directly sunlit cliff to its left. The further the the shadowy cliff extends towards the viewer, the more of its neighbouring cliffs light it catches. But the cast shadow on the sunlit cliff does not receive that much indirect light from its neighbour, wich is in shadow after all and hence the sideway transition, which of course is overlayed with the typical vertical transition for the usual purposes, and thus resulting in a diagonal pattern, or "rotated sky".
That is absolutely correct. I live and paint out there in the 4 corners area and see that almost every time I head out in the Canyon deChelly area. Very good analysis of that effect
This is so interesting! Thank you for the explanation ☺
But the way this effect works also helps draw the eye towards the middle of the painting. So it might've still been a stylistic choice by the artist.
@@lolzold4 Absolutely! Choosing your composition in a way that it naturally supports your stylistic choice is a very elegant way of improving one`'s painting
And they say art is easy...
How’s work on the art collab going ? Hope I have the correct artist for the next instalment ? 😊🥰🎨

@@marcobucci Aw no rush; thanks for explaining; congrats on new arrival. Must be tricky to juggle creativity and videos. The collab is such a great idea, had just lost track. Enjoy making it, and juggling crawling baby time. Hopefully see you on 10th (same date as third episode of podcast comes out so I’ll remember it). In mean time take it easy best you can with parental leave 🎨😊
Excellent video as always! Marco's color survival guide course (that he mentions at the end of the video) is completely worth the cost.
I’ve been thinking maybe I should buy it some time
I second this! Excellent course worth every penny.
Watching this video, trying to patiently wait for the TH-cam collaboration post.

Happy to see you back, Marco.
All of this does make me wonder if Edgar Payne used a colour wheel to work those colour transitions out. It's quite phenomenal really. And thank you for sacrificing yourself and taking the payne out of our paintings somewhat! 😊
Thanks for making another great video.
Hope all's well with you et al.
hey marco! thanks to you I was able to switch from digital to traditional art. value and hue is kind of a mystery to learn with traditional art. your color theory videos made something in my brain go click and now picking colors, traversing through colors etc comes natural...irl. you are the best :)
And not a single word about the way light (its intensity and distance) affects value. Sigh... Well, back to eyeballing I guess.
Marco, you're the absolute greatest on youtube lessons in the whole planet. I wouldn't have gotten this far without the knowledge you share with us, thank you!
❤Hi Marco - any idea when we can expect the TH-cam collab piece? ❤❤❤

Wonderful. No one explains light the way you can. I have recommended your video on ambient occlusion to so many people and now I will do the same with this one.
All aboard the Edgar Alwin Payne Edgar Alwin Pain Train!
Any idea when you are going to start the TH-cam Art colab?
Where's the colab vid?

You litterally made art possible to learn for me! I will buy your courses just for gratitude a feel for your support to the community(and also for all my unanswered questions :D). Unfortunately, I am unemployed now, but when i get a job and get some living i will remember that I have to support you back. :) You definitely made dreams come true for a lot of people that were struggling with their art level and didnt know where to search for info. I wish you best luck and health, you are amazing, thank you for your hard work. :)

Amazing Amazing AMAZING TUTORIAL! Thank you for sharing this! And I learned about a new artist I'm now going to study!
I loved the chess metaphor, u are amazing, u taught me so much
Did anyone tell you that your painting style is so impressionist? The way you are building the colors and the way you put them together are so unique.
It's crazy how much info you get from just one painting explanation
Thank you Marco
Marco, master of colours! If I wouldn't have studied all the great tutorials you so generously share with us, I would've understood very little. Now I feel like having reached a new level of understanding. So, it's only the tiny bit of applying it to my own work though that gets me. 🤪

I think Marco's version had way more saturation in the shadows for non blue colors. shadow means less information including color information.
Shadows can still have saturation, so I guess it's more of artistic expression
This video is precious and informative! Thank you Marco ❤️👍 always excited to see your video
any updates on the Collab painting?
Two month for each painting is atrocious for my patience

im at level 277 at the color puzzle app. i know how color transition works thanks to it
and its free
I would have preferred the other way around: "Learn painting by understanding this color.". *Sigh

I don't paint myself and haven't drawned anything in a good while but this was inspiring. I always found colors, shading and highlights hardest to get a grip on and this helped me understand it a heck lot more :D
Thank you Marco! Again you bring easy to learn videos. Colors have been a challenging part for me, and you can explain those in tangible ways
Awesome video very helpful💪🏻💪🏻 Did you already start with tenhuns art collab piece? Can‘t wait 😃😃
Man, Marco, you're one of the greatest teachers I've come across. The way you explain things is so digestible and really touches on the process in a way that just doesn't seem to be covered. I've been looking more into color studies, and this is definitely sitting in my back back to learn and review again.
Thank you so much marco your videos help me a lot with color theory it was hard to understand at first but i kept rewatching the videos and the pieces slowly connect together i think with your channel i can learn so much
i just painted a portrait of robert pattinson's the batman with this lecture and i gotta say i think it helped alot who woudl've thought greys could communicate so much while being so invisible to the naked eye!
Sowhen a saturated light hits a local color it makes more saturated and warmer, the light will eventually fall off going from warmwarmer to cooler colors. The shadows are the parts when the objests arent hit with light but they still visible bcuz some secondary light sources bounce weaker rays on it, weaker, cooler and not as bright as the main light source. The mixture of ambient light in the shadows is a transition of the colors towards gray. At least thats why i got from this video.
What would you recommend for someone who is color blind? I have the protonopia variant and I don't know what base colors things have. Usually I just end up searching for hex colors online but that leads to using only primaries often. Any tips?
I need u coz I love uuuu
When will your episode of the art collab be posted
Oh my god. What a great video. This is like, an integral part of what I was missing.
man i love your videos
Good evening, Marco! Your videos about digital painting are incredible and it would be great, if more artists could watch them! So, I would like to translate them into Russian for people, who don't know English. Could I do that? The link to the original videos will be in the description for sure
What would i need to follow your course? Just ps and a tablet to work on?

Why am I getting Calculus vibes on this vid about light& color😭
A bit too complicated for me. Why don't you pic color from color wheel?
9:22 lol, that got me good
