Thanks a lot ! Honestly, i'm painting since few months, and never understood colors. You just opened my eyes, thanks. I never found resources that quality in French
Thank you Susan for taking the time to make this lesson for us newbies! I'm so excited my drawing has improved, but it seems once I start adding color things fall apart because my values are off. Had to practice lesson 1 on values several times to get it to stick. Now I'm ready for this great lesson on color. So much to learn. Thank you for your patience and dedication as a teacher.
To me the warmest color would be somewhere in the orange umbrella. I can think of a cool yellow and a cool red, but i can't really think of a cool orange, as the warmest yellows and reds are those that lean toward orange.
This was a great explanation Susan, the way you used the colorwheel and pastels. It's a tricky thing with the warm and cool, but relationships make it make more sense!
The way you explained that a color can be cooler or warmer depending on the direction you are moving on the color wheel really helped me. I can equate that to musical notes that can be a sharp or flat depending on which direction you are moving on the musical scale! Thank you so much.
Second try: I'm 77 and have taken everything from tlit to math in college and your video, Susan, was one of the most informative on any subject I have ever seen! That's better, I think.
Thank you so much Susan. I am new to painting.You have provided a light bulb moment for me.On the way to buy a colour wheel from my wee art shop.The lovely man there sells Sennelier pastels individually so will be able to select my colours using the wheel.❤❤❤
AHi Susan, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us on line . It has helped me enormously in my journey with pastels. I hope one day to be an accomplished painter!
Nice feeling to go back to the school years I watched it with the corresponding difficulties in the google translation but I enjoyed it a lot of warm greetings from the snowman Athens
If you want to get brightest, truest colors, you can use primary colors and mix them. Get cyan, magenta and yellow pastels. The brightest red you can get is by mixing magenta and yellow. If you want the brightest green, mix cyan and yellow. Brightest, truest blue - cyan and magenta. That’s exactly why they’re primary colors in the subtractive system ( in printing, in painting, anything where pigments are mixed). You can literally get any other color by mixing these 3 pigments together. While you can never get cyan, magenta or yellow by mixing other colors. Try it out with paints, pastels or markers and you’ll see.
Oh yes! I’m a total fan of using these colors as primary colors. As a graphic designer I learned that these are the actual colors used in print to mix every color you see in any type of magazine or printed item.👍🏻☺️ lots of people don’t know about this. So neat that you do!
I always have problems considering which temperature blues are. I can differentiate a cool and warm yellow, red , green and purple. But never blue. If I compare phthalo blue and ultramarine I would consider phthalo blue to go towards yellow so that would make it a warm blue but everyone says it is a cool blue because it goes towards green. Ultramarine is usually considered a warm blue because it has red in it although I feel it's cool because it goes towards a cool purple. It's very confusing
Hello Mrs Jenkins, It was really awesome to understand the basics and moreover it totally cleared my doubts during the video itself. Thnx ma'am for explaining so well. Moreover I wanted to ask if you would be creating more lessons on color theory, like uk combining both this color theory with greyscale and neutral tones, it was explained in this video as well but let's say that one for making complex colors ma'am. Anish said hii, Tc ma'am, prayers for ur mum in law ❤️ Love from India ❤️ Arun
That’s a great suggestion Arun. I have some videos on “neutrals” and how to incorporate them in a painting, but I really want to combine all of these elements together into one video if I can do it in a simplified way. Please tell Anish I said hi and I’m thinking of him.
@@monetcafe ma'am tbh I've seen some of them but uk putting them all in one place will help us connect dots very fast, learning theory is one aspect but it's application is another therefore if we'll have that theory in one place, it'll be very easy for us to remember and try work on mistakes, rest I'm always on your sides, I'm very happy to attend every lesson. Anish was quite delighted to receive your greetings, he intends to extend his from lord's blessings and prayers. Tc ma'am, See ya in next video.
I'm confused about the Color Temp sketch. The SKY arrow is labeled "Warmer to Cooler" and is pointing from top to the horizon. Should it be the other way around?
Oh, whoops! I’m not looking back at the video right now but from what you’re describing it sounds like I did have it flip-flopped. Thanks for pointing that out sweetie.
@@monetcafe Thank you. I should add that I found this extremely helpful. I started with paper and graphite pencil as a child, and I feel like I have a good grasp of Value, but when it comes to Color Temperature I am still struggling. This gave me a good hand up.
@@monetcafe And thank you for making it clear in the "rule breaker" examples that the sky "temperatures" really depend on the location of the light source, whether sun or moon.
I’ve been painting for a five years Susan and nobody has explained this as beautifully as you just did . Wonderful video. Thank you Susan! Winsome x
I'm 77 and have taken everything from math to lit in college and your video, Susan, was one of the most informative I've ever seen!
Wonderful! I can’t tell you how much your comment blesses me Ed!!🤗❤️☺️
Very clear instructions! Thank you, Susan! Lots of prayers for you and your family!❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much, Susan! This was a wonderful lesson and clarified much of the struggle that I have had with color temperature. Much appreciated!
Hooray!! So glad it was helpful!!
Thanks a lot ! Honestly, i'm painting since few months, and never understood colors. You just opened my eyes, thanks. I never found resources that quality in French
I love the broken rules paintings and totally got lost until they became black and white studies. Thank you for sharing your valuable information
Best colour tutorial found😊
Wow, thanks so much for that Darren! That makes me happy.
Cool colour temperature vs warm colour temperature 😊❤

You are so welcome Nan! It’s definitely all learnable and you can do it!
That was such a clear and useful video! Thanks! I love your paintings!
I just love watching those colors in color wheel! Thanks for this informative video 😊
To me the warmest color would be somewhere in the orange umbrella. I can think of a cool yellow and a cool red, but i can't really think of a cool orange, as the warmest yellows and reds are those that lean toward orange.
Super helpful! Thank you SO much. Becoming a Patreon member in 2021 has been one of my best decisions of the New Year.
Awwww...... bless you. I love to hear that! And thank you so much for your support on Patreon sweetheart!
This was a great explanation Susan, the way you used the colorwheel and pastels. It's a tricky thing with the warm and cool, but relationships make it make more sense!
Thanks Marilyn.... I'm thankful you liked the lesson and I can tell you get it!

Exactly! There are actually many things that art and music have in common. Glad it was helpful J A.
Great explanation. Saving this one to be able to watch again....and again
This was an excellent lesson, I'm glad I found it!
Glad it was helpful!

Wonderful, Ed! your message makes me so happy! I really love to teach and share and I’m so grateful this lesson was a benefit for you.

Thank you very much indeed. Great teacher.
This is incredibly helpful, thank you!!
This was so helpful. Thank you.
Great lesson !!!!
Very great, true lesson. Thx so very much Monet Cafe! ✨🌹🌹🌹
Another great video!
Love the appetizer tray. This was way more easy to understand than other color temp explanations, thanks
Wonderful! I so appreciate that feedback. I always wonder if others will understand how I explain things. That is very helpful Jill.
Thanks for the tutorial.. amazing learning I hv
Yes yes yes. This is excellent I paid for a college class on color and wish I'd seen this first
Thanks your video, explain very well. I learn more as a beginner.
Wonderful lesson on the main and very esential rules of the art ! The teather 😉 is just as wonderful, thank you so much Susan 🌹
Thank you so much!
Ohmygod this makes soooo much sense! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
You are so welcome! I am thrilled that it was helpful.
Thank you! Loved this!
So glad you liked it!
Wonderful teaching Suzan, so so helpful, a very big thank you for your teaching techniques. Many Blessings. ❤. Sylvia
AHi Susan, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us on line . It has helped me enormously in my journey with pastels. I hope one day to be an accomplished painter!
Keep it up Fiona! You can do it!
Really amazing lesson, thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
It makes sense to think of yellow as the sun and as blue as in winter That helps me
I love that comment because I've had so many people say that they think red is the warmest color. For some reason, yellow works best logically for me.
Thank you for a great lesson !.
You are so welcome Petra :)
Nice feeling to go back to the school years I watched it with the corresponding difficulties in the google translation but I enjoyed it a lot of warm greetings from the snowman Athens
Thank you Mihail! It's nice to have translation options, but I know often they can still be challenging. Greetings and warm wishes back to you
Great tip on the round palette.
Thanks....It was one of those happy accidents!

I feel the same way about ultramarine blue… It does seem lean a bit towards purple.

bonjour, comme je regrette qu'il n'y ai pas de ss titre en Français 😢
Maybe u meant to write Art Principles not Art Principals.
