I was literally just telling my friend I am about to go and work on my color theory. Then I hung up the phone and got a notification for this. God is good. Thank you Chris.
Perfect!
Me and you both. All the time God is goooood🙃
Action stunts, humor and a sprinkling of illustrative tips of gold. This channel has it all Lol this was a great and informative video. 😅
Haha thank you 😊 😊
Honestly I found the stunt cut-ins a bit annoying, I think there were too many of them. Or perhaps I'm just old.
Honestly, I appreciate your honesty. Sorry I annoyed you.
I don't agree on limited colors, in the right genre, go color crazy!
if you know what you're doing and could make it work. If you don't, better to keep it more simple. it's about the end result anyway, no one cares that you used X amount of colour if it looks like rainbow eyestrain simulator 2000. Art has no rules but you could always make it look more pleasing.
Sure, there’s always exceptions for everything. And I’m all for breaking the rules whenever you want. These were tips to help people who are struggling with color choices.
This is really helpful! Sometimes, I struggle with my color choices and feel like I'm just taking a shot in the dark. Thanks, Chris!
Glad to hear! Thanks!
I've heard about color theory forever but never knew what it was. When I do anything involving color, I've always just kept it simple: base or background color, the foreground or primary, main or predominant color, and no more than 2 accent colors, whether they're part of the same color band or their opposite comp color. I also find that one color with white or black is usually spectacularly eye catching as well.
Even if I did a tie dye print or some active noisy image, I tone it way down with background, foreground, 2 accents and if it works, black/white and a pop of color. Never had any issues with overuse of color lol. Even my home decor is this way.
Love you and your experience Chris. ❤ Thank you for making this!
Thanks so much!
Thanks Chris, incredibly useful advice and great tips.
It's all about that POP!
POPtastic!
Another really helpful video Chris !
Glad to hear it!
Loved a few videos from your channel already, so I subbed to learn more about animations. I always loved doodling and I started adding animations to my YT vids and I think it can separate me from other creators a little bit. Can't wait to learn more techniques from you brotha.
Great to hear! Thanks!
This helped me with color theory a lot! Thanks!
So glad to hear!
"Your -scientists- artists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should"
??
This was a good one, thanks Chris.
Glad you enjoyed it
ANOTHER great video! Thanks.
My pleasure!
OMG I was about to request this suggestion on discord! Thanks Chris! :)
Hope you like it!
You really outdid yourself here sir. Don't stop poppin!
🙏🙏🙏🙏
When you said “I know you do it” about the colorwheel randos, I was like dayum yea I did it many times yesterday actually, thought no one noticed
😆
Yo, them pops are looking extra saucy. The 180 bro!
Subscription earned!
Haha thanks!
Snarky Chris is back! Hurray! Keep popping.
😎😎
Key takeaways:
- Just when I was jonesin’ for another Chris & Chris show, this tasty morsel shows up.
- All this time I’ve wondered who you yell at off to stage right… mystery solved.
- Fun fact: your Skillshare on Fresco animation is the reason I signed up for Skillshare & I gave that golden nugget a re-watch over the weekend, can’t wait to check out the new one.
- greenphantomblahblahblah is a bit of a killjoy huh? He’s that discarded character from Wizard of Oz who’s missing a sense of humor. Please don’t listen to him. The masses have spoken. We love the Chris & Chris show.
- I love pubbles.
😊😊😊😊😊😊
great vid boy - u are great.
Thank you!
Great info but I was wondering what you do when getting your files printed - I’m used to working in CMYK but it’s not an option in fresco. do you convert the file into cmyk in something like illustrator ? And if so how do you avoid colours changing in that process.
Great Tips...Pro Tips!
Thank you! 🤓
This video was full of great advice color and some moments of ADHD goodness!!! Thanks for the video!!!
My pleasure!
I see that Bonehaus shirt!!!👍👍...artists supporting artists eh??😊😊
This is great - thank you! Definitely one I'll rewatch a few times. Also good to know that scooters just can't handle the pops.
Haha thanks! I think in it's day it could have, but that plastic is from 1987.
Awesome I am in❤🎉
Thanks!
I freaking love ya man. You are infofunnycoolish 😂🙃🤘🏽
Thnx!! 😊
Hey🙌🏻 Thanks for sharing this video😍, i like all ur videos, i am new to fresco and i am following each and every video of urs
Just wanted to know, can we import affinity designer's vector design into fresco?
Thanks so much! Unfortunately I haven’t found a way to import vector art into Fresco, I’m hoping that feature will come.
Chris, I have something to tell you…Your dissociative personality disorder is getting worse. AND I AM HERE FOR IT! 😂😂😂
Love the “new” style of editing. It feels genuine. Also, I wanted to thank you for all the time you have put into your channel. I’ve been experimenting with your style, and feel like a piece of my art style puzzle has been found. You’re a gentleman and a scholar!
hah! Thanks so much! I've been having fun and I'm glad you are enjoying my content!
@@chris-piascik having fun is the most important part! I just started doing a street shark rendition of your Kappa art using the RSCO brushes. I’ve loved using constraints to stay focused on the art… and not all those other silly necessary things
@kylenaumann2318 oh nice! That sounds awesome!
I want a print!!!
Excited to check out you Skillshare. Also:
1 . Great tips. Thanks!
2. Great pop. You ride BMX?
1. Glad you thought so!
2. I did for many years, not so much anymore as I had a shoulder injury that makes it difficult.
The Skillshare class is great, highly recommend. But all of his classes are great.
Thanks so much!!!
All these Ninja Turtles… I knew I liked you 😂

Hey Chris, I was just looking at the App Store. The (fantastic) thumbnail picture in the App Store (for Fresco) - is that one of yours? 😮
It is! Thank you!
I dont get tuts that how to draw from basics on Fresco 😢 !! Can u teach me how to?? Bcs teaching is a gift that is given to someone!❤😢
Drawing from basics isn’t software based, you’re better off just looking up beginner drawing videos. It doesn’t matter what you’re using.
Hilarious lol and insightful as always
Glad you enjoyed it 🤓
You’re a big child. Lol, love it. Where’s the Green Machine Big Wheel?!!! Or the one with the hand break on one side for spinning out lol…😂
Oh yea, also excellent information. ;)
lol I need that
You’re tha man.
Appreciate that!
in the i have no idea what i am doing part. i saw the eyes first then i saw the text i read i have no idea i am doing and the i find the what . just saying that to tell you that the red color surrounding the what is easy to lose. and i saw the nope at the end
Whoops. 🤷♂️
Great video. I am a guilty person. I have been a color criminal. I vow to reform my ways. Thank you for showing me the way.
Hahah glad it was helpful!
your other you is *quite* hilarious!😂if it doesn’t make your *braincellz x-pload* too much, do you think you can *add more of your moving cartoons* in videos too? when you add moving cartoons like the popcorn, it *helps me concentrate* on what you’re saying better.
*another example* is when ur discussing fresco, like you sometimes have the *cartoons talk as you* if that makes sense.😂😂 but i will say, your videos are getting so good! omg! and you’re almost to 50k!

Thank you !!!
Thanks! I try to incorporate as much fun stuff as I can!
2:04 nooo broo not The kiddy fiddler aka diddy
LOL
You will be nice if you do a video for finalizing design on Adobe Illustrator or photoshop tutorial for dummies like me because when you do the tutorials you go to them fast😂 they are some dummies over here who wants to learn Count Me In Coach😂🙏🤓🤓🤓
Thanks for the feedback. I do plan to do some simpler videos in the future. IN the meantime this may help with the the Illustrator stuff: th-cam.com/video/F2oV-vtUXlA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=R7uy1rynX2s9o882

Casually 180s
😎 still got it, lol
Is it bad that I actually preferred the one on the left 😰
Maybe I just suck
Nah, I do too. I just don’t like the desaturated colors he chose for the left. If his limited color pallet was had the same reds and greens of the first one I might feel differently though.
Tbf, I also sorta disagree with the premise. Maybe a limited color pallet is his art style (and mine tbh) but I think letting the medium having more of a hand in the work is sometimes cool. One of the advantages of digital art is the wide range of colors and the ease of changing them.
I agree for the most part, but the point I was trying to make was that being intentional with our color choices will lead to better work. It doesn’t have to be a limited palette, but maybe starting minimally can be helpful. Ultimately you’re right, these are my preferences and there’s always exceptions to every “rule”.
Yo Sir, you got some skillos. Interesting for me is the design process. Methodology. Come up with the juice and the brainpower. Maybe you can cover a session of digging deep into the mushroom power…
Thanks! I do have a bunch of process videos where I talk about my thought process. I do that on my recent x-men + ren and Stimpy video. There’s also some videos that’s that go from sketch to final where I talk about that stuff throughout.
@@chris-piascik Alright, alright, alright…I definitely check them out. How about logo design ? You got some in your pockets, Sir ?
@TheDudeway haven’t made a video about that yet!
@@chris-piascik Can’t wait Sir.
I had to check the playback speed if its higher than normal.. Please give some breathing space for poor souls like me :)
Sorry about that! Just trying to get in as much info as I can without taking too long.
I see why this works but remember, if you follow the rules your work will look like everyone else’s.
Finding out which rules you can break and when it is appropriate is what all the greats did.
If somebody didn’t break some rules we’d still be making flat medieval style paintings.
Go break some rules… selectively
In the video I give lots of suggestions for different ways you can use color, nothing is a defined prescription, but rather broad things you can do. Sure breaking the rules can yield great results, but some things just don’t work.
@@chris-piascik Amen Brother. I have learned the hard way. I'm a talentless hack but I still aspire to greatness
Not going to lie, the weird ass random side crap makes your videos damn near unwatchable. Like every time you almost make a point, one of those things just completely interrupts the flow of thought and blows your point completely out of the water. It’s a shame, because you’re clearly sharing useful, important information, but you’re so concerned with being hilarious, that you’ll willfully ruin your own point just for the haha’s. It doesn’t make your videos funny, it makes them a waste of time.
Thanks for sharing
Also, what a shitty comment. If you don’t like my videos I’m sure you can find thousands of others on the same topic.

Kick rocks nerd
Great value pitbull with the terrible take. Before you vomit negativity next time, go outside and take a deep breath.
I’ve been drawing since I could hold a pen. So way over 30 years. The thought of having an iPad back then, infinite paper and limitless colours would have seemed like a dream, so the biggest challenge isn’t technique as much as it is learning to hold back. Colour theory is next level.
It is crazy!
