- How hard is it to match paint colors by eye? It’s time to find out! I’m putting my color theory to practical use and taking on the color matching challenge that @Jazza did recently to see if I can get a higher score, even though I’m a complete beginner with mixing oil paints!

I’ve had this idea on my list to do for months since I saw the artist do it perfectly on tik tok 🤣 but I kept putting it off because I didn’t think it would be feasible to do too well. You did great!!!
I was also team white and gold hahaha
Well now you HAVE to do it 😜
Lol that’s how I feel too 😂
I saw jazza do it and now you and it seems like so much fun! Great job!!!
Omg I love you guys Chloe and Sarah ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@ChloeRoseArt IDK because every time I see it it looks in a different color ( blue and black or yellow n gold. Idk why
Oh my gosh, EXCELLENT first attempt at this! Definitely one-upped Jazza, he'll have to do a follow up video to redeem himself 😉 😄
Using a 2d colour paper is way more easier to detect the differences than a 3d banana. It isn't a fair comparison to jazza's performance
@@Marnige actually, in sarah’s video she did do 3d objects, and jazza used 2d paper as well. they both did a mix of both, and i think it’s fair to say that sarah did better.
me screaming "YOU NEED YELLOW!" the whole time you were making teal 😂😂
I should have just started with blue and yellow and ignore the greens. I probably would have found it easier!
Same here-
The science behind seeing colors is so fascinating, and I'm kind of glad you're hooked on this, this video was so cool!
I’ve been hooked on the science of colors ever since my color theory video over a year ago!
Tip: when mixing a light color and a darker color. Start with your light and slowly add in the dark. Some pigments are much stronger than you think.
I would like to say Thank You for being a very normal, funny, enthusiastic artist, who makes learning inspirational & achievable. I have spent the last few weeks binging on your wonderful videos and smiling at your antics. I’ve sharpened my pencils, downloaded your colouring pages and watched the colour theory and b,ending videos multiple times. I started to learn to draw during quarantine, and then work took over again but I am starting to use colouring to deal with stressful days, and that is down to you!
Thank you!
Painters refuse to accept that CMY are the true primaries... Red, yellow and blue make for a more muted and natural palette which is often preferred.
The painters that do want to mix very bright, clean colors often use a "split primaries" palette, where they have a warm and cool version of red, yellow and blue. Obviously, this ends up including magenta and cyan... Proving once again that CMY is way more versatile..
The creator already made a video regarding the “true primaries” , I think you should take a look at it.
Now I'm not a professional color person/artist but I do think that a 'pack' of oil colors is often sold to "new" artists in stores and the "experienced" oil-painting artist will often buy both specific brands, and colors or even mix their own colors.
I say this because I work in a arts and crafts shop, and we do have oil paints, both sets and singles, but we only have the most "popular" colors in the store as most professional artists will buy from one of the other stores that is exclusively selling art materials, and therefore we just sell the colors that are most likely to be sold to the "average" oil painter :)
And no i have not once had a professional oil-painter buy our paints, but they do come to buy cleaning stuff and all that other stuff :)
A split-primary palette is such a good solution!
I wouldn't personally say that painters refuse to accept it :o
split primaries is a thing for a reason and it's the standard for basically all experienced painters, of course CMY could already work fine but split primaries gives a lot more mixing options in some areas, though generally speaking you want more colours than that even~
I've played with this a ton with watercolor and you can get anything with single pigment CMY triad, even muted natural colors. I almost exclusively paint plants and birds and can get those colors with CMY. But, it is easier with the combination of warm and cool versions. I was so blown away when I added yellow to magenta and got primary red! That just made me look at color in such a completely new way. How could red come from "pink" + yellow? I've only really done mixing extensively with watercolor so I don't know how or if it would be different with opaque media.
When I went to art school we actually used the printer colors, Cyan Magenta Yellow White and Black. In acryllics though. I love acryllics, but wish we had learned oils, or at least dabbled with both.
same here, in art school we use cmyk in both gouache and acrylic
99% First Attempt? Amazing!!!!
You are amazing and a huge inspiration, it is really incredible the time you put into your videos for us!! I have been practicing art lately. Thank you so much. YOU HAVE A FELLOW MELBOURNE GAL HERE
Yas
Yahoo and happy day! Thanks for putting out a blast of fun video! You did great with this, and lookin forward to the painty stuff.
Be well alls, and chipper cheerios! 😄
So fun!! I've just started learning about Color mixing and keeping limited palette, which has allowed me to purchase professional grade watercolor paints for the first time in my entire life this week! Color mixing is a skill and it's helping me to better understand color theory in more depth.
Thank you so much for continuing to try new things on your channel! It's truly inspiring to the older (30+)new artists like myself!
Anyone who dares challenge Jazza is my favorite kind of person. Cant wait to watch rhis video!!!!!!
As someone who has seen people colour match in car painting I suppose I'm used to seeing it come to life so often its great
the colour struggle re: cyan and magenta is REAL!!!! for physical artwork, e.i polymer clay, pastels, paint having CYMK makes the process so much easier. There are colours that you CANNOT get with the standard RYB in meduims with pigments. I have to buy the magenta & cyan samples separately so often!
This was so entertaining and frustrating to watch ahaha 🤣 and omg I love your cat, he's so chill
I can't wait to see you learning painting, I'm sure I'll learn some more alongnwith you!
Golden acrylics, primary yellow, primary magenta, and primary cyan are the best. You can get an amazing range of colours. :)
Better color-matching comes with practice, as does so much of art! Jazza's had many more years of practice doing this, so.... good for you! One tip - when trying to make small adjustments, don't use the whole puddle - pull a little aside, add your additions. If they don't work, start with more of the original color puddle, and adjust that!
This would have been so much easier with watercolors. Painting with triads is very common and magenta is very popular for that reason. Also, any color mixing it's going to be harder if paints include multiple pigments. Also with watercolor you don't have to try as get values and hue at the same time because there's no adding white. You just add water to make lighter.
I am a watercolorist and I completely agree, except she's not trying to render the object in a painting, but paint it right on the object at the end. So you have to use an opaque paint. But acrylics would have been easier cleanup!!
You can mix any color with oil paints easily with practice. It’s only hard if you aren’t familiar with it. It takes very few pigments to make accurate color mixes with oils. I can make any color with titanium white, cadmium yellow, burnt umber, cadmium red, alizarin crimson, ultramarine blue, quinacridone magenta, and cobalt teal.
Very nice color mixing Sarah. I love it you're having fun. That's the main reason for learning & being creative. Excellent example for me too 🤗🤗👏🏽👏🏽
I love these matching type videos, especially when you do it Sarah 😜
THANK YOU for pointing out how annoying it is that many colour sets don't have magenta and cyan!!!! Bugs me sooooo much! I am an art teacher and when my kids have to paint the colour wheel, I also make a point of showing them WHY it can only be THESE primary colours when we want to be precise.
Fantastic video! I’m a Autobody painter and it was so neat seeing a artist perceptive and struggles on colour matching. Your video on the Cyan,magenta, yellow colour wheel re fuelled my passion for colour. 👍🏻
This was so much fun to watch! I want to learn to paint too so I can't wait to be inspired by your journey!
Good job with the color matching!! And good luck with learning to paint 🎨 🖌 !!!
This is amazing. I know you can match most anything using primary colors (both rbgy and cmy)and blk&wht. That's why i always keep those in my art supplies stock.
I’m excited about your painting journey. Thank you so much for sharing your learning experience with us. I’m determined to master it as well. And I’m excited to see what experiments you do with the RYB and CMY color wheels. Personally I think adding both to your pallet would give the broadest range of colors. 🫡
Oilpainters traditionally use red, yellow and blue - but I get where you're coming from, I usually get additional magenta and cyan for my water colours and I definitely use them in my acrylics, as well ^^'
There are color sets with magenta, cyan and yello - for example: Holbein Acryl Gouache Five Primary Colors Set or Schmincke - AKADEMIE Gouache (both gouache though). I think I also saw acrylic and oil in the past but I wasn't able to find it quickly.
Im painting a large canvas for my living room and i have to match the colors of the reference photo so this helped plus im a perfectionist like you 😅
This was so fun to watch! This shows how talented you are Sarah! 😍😍❤❤
Cant wait for you to learn how to paint!
That is interesting about there being no cyan and magenta in paint sets. I have some acrylics in these colours but I think I got them separately. Maybe you could try these. They are called System3 I don't use acrylics much any more but would love to see if you could make a painting just using printer colours.
My gouache set came with cyan and magenta, but as far as I know, the brand I use (Renesans) isn't easily found outside my country
Colour matching is veryyy hard but you still did amazing! You never disappoint us, Sarah!
I could never tire watching you Sarah. The way you explain things and just have fun in your videos .. it's inspiring
I have just bought some paint and now you're learning painting, perfect timing lol 😁
I need to see you do a gouache portrait of the cat please🤞😊
Good tip on starting to paint and mix colors.. Always take very small amounts of strong colors to your weak. Example: put out a glob of white then take very small amount of black to white glob to make grey. Also depending weather the paint is cool to cool or warm to warm you can end up with a muddy or unexpected color. Like adding Yellow to black can make green. Men tend to see colors different due to the fact they were meant to be hunters and see distant in lower light and have more of that night vision chemical in their eyes then women. =) Hope that makes sense and helps! Also Happy Paint Journey to you!!!!!
This was the mistake I made with the orange! Definitely good advice
Yay! I am so exited that you are interested in paining! It is not easy (as you know) but my advice is to usually let the paint dry before you continue fiddling with it. Trust me. I have learned that the hard way😅
This sounds like something I will struggle with too! Thanks for the reminder!
Certainly a fun video! Color matching is a skill. Some are very natural at doing it, some others take the learning curve. This could lead you to a new exploration of materials, maybe? Not oil, I guess… but Acrylics? Watercolor? I think you did a good job!
I constantly mix matte acrylics with color pencils and the results are interesting. I have a book with color mixing that gives you accurate percentages for each color you need (no, not a Pantone book). It was aimed at typography, to contrast it with background). It was a really good book to use as reference and practice when studying my major. How I used that percentage in the book? I changed it to drops or mm3/ cm3. It worked most of the time. Specially when dealing with the tasks given by one of my teachers. He gave us a reference painting that we had to reproduce to a 100%, not only in shapes, but in color it must’ve been identical ( or you failed ). The name of the book is Type & Color, I don’t have the publisher here with me right now. It’s now a very old edition, maybe 1990 or 1991. Thanks for so much fun videos!
I have the book you mentioned. It is my reference book to create two or three color combinations with Cyan, Magenta, & Yellow.
This is the information for anyone interested:
Type & Color
A Handbook of Creative Combinations
Authors: Alton Cook & Robert Fleury
Rockport Publishers, 1989 first edition, 1990 second edition.
I will try to find the copy of my book, and share pics on my Twitter, I might not have time this week to do a flip through video to add to my channel. I am in the last two weeks of my semester and that is a lot of final projects to grade.
Once you see the pages of this handbook, you will understand when I said that the learning curve for color matching is easy to attempt with good results on any media (dry or wet).
Wow the cat was so smart I feel like she understood what you say. Brilliant
Wow....u are soo good at it
You are amazing sarah ☺️
I hope Mr Jazza is shaking in his boots right now 😎😂
I'm excited to watch you learn to paint. I'm a watercolor artist and colored pencils baffle me. Imo, painting is sooooo much easier.
I don’t know if you want to try oils or acrylics, but there are water soluble oils that clean up with just soap and water. As others have said a split primary palette with the inclusion of a black and white is so versatile! Artist grade paints almost always have a magenta available. Gamblin has a nice one that I use. And so does liquitex if you’re looking for acrylic paints
The kitty mixing at the end was my absolute fave so cute wow !
You are literally the most creative person on TH-cam!!! Sarah you learnt colour matching in one min without even practicing first 👏
And you also proved that women can perceive colours better than men 😁 Please keep entertaining us like this! 😄
Okay this isn't fair. You were such a natural! awesome vid
FIRSTT! Haven't watched this yet but i know I'll love it and I'm excited to learn something new about a new medium ^^
Oh my goodness! I can't wait to see you paint! You're gonna do good.
Yaaayyyyy we're ganna learn paintinggggg
Good luck
You did amazing! Jazza was good...but...you were better! ;) Way to go!!
This was fun loved it. I love how you explain everything ❤
😂 getting ideas from jazza? I love it!
AAAAHHHH ITS LITERALLY YELLOWGATE ON THE TEAL 😭😭 adding yellow is muddying the teal because it’s making the blues greener
Nicely done! If you look at a full line of paints you can find the CMY Colors. Most are available open stock, but not always at your local stores as they do not sell! You may also need to look at the larger companies or more extensive color lines like Lucas, Liquitex, Golden! My favorite paint company is DaVinci of California, they sell everything from watercolors to oils!
Those might be to much to ship to Australia. I think they are worth it but that is just me!
I'm telling at my phone the way most people do at sports. "YOU NEED PHTHALO BLUE AND PHTHALO GREEN AND WHITE!!" 🤣🤣
Looking amazing girl friend! Love the cute pony tail!
I loved this video😁🥰Thier was so much info👍Thank you for all of the work you and your man do to make these great videos👏❤❤❤
Congrats on your mastery of colour. Also, wanna see you collab with Jazza now.
So excited for your learning to paint videos! Also, you did pretty well in this challenge
Love your humor.
You’ve been talking about painting for awhile, good luck and I can’t wait to see your journey!
During a college class (psychology strangely) the teacher was showing us one of those grey scale images that if you stare at it then look at a white wall it will be in color. The spot you stared at had 3 dots red, green and blue.
The teacher was trying to explain how it works and a student asked why the primary colors were red, yellow, and blue then. The teacher didn't know the answer to that. I raised my hand and said that there were multiple color wheels. That the projector for the class was an RGB, as were tvs, etc.
This is such a fun challenge
Can’t wait to see Sarah Renae Clark… the PAINTER!
Aww, the cat, that’s a new level unlocked. The teal, I was thinking more blue needed?
As a painter, and of you want to start painting, get a warm and cool yellow, warm and cool red, and warm and cool blue. I know that doesn't seem to make sense, but look into it. And then a good hot pink like Opera rose which you just can't make out of any primaries. That will give you a set to make any color imaginable. Oh. Duh. And white!
A split-primary palette!
Can't wait for the painting video good luck!!!
I loved watching this, makes me want to try!! Also your cat is SO cute.
This was hilarious fun!
wow you did amazing!!
Thank you Sarah ! Fun and a good learning video !
Loved the NerdGirl part about color theory! Also, I think I’ll go score some beginner’s oils and learn with you!
I’ll probably start with acrylics and do oils at a later stage 😊
I think you did great and can’t wait to see you try painting for the first time. Btw women can definitely see more colors
Hi from Australia, I have drawn, painted over the last 45 years. I could never get it just right, so I gave up. Now I had to give up work do to my health. I read, doing computer cross-stitching and colour in digitaly, l love to organise things a little OCD l know so when cleaning out boxes of my children and grandchildren l found all their colour pencils (DERWENT, FABER-CASTELL, J. BORROURS, school sets) which are hard to medium creamey. I have watched your videos and it has inspired me to again try my artist smouldering down deep. So l have switched ever pencil and markers l have found around the house. I have started to colour in some old colouring in books and hinting about how l love to lose myself in and received several books. THANK YOU😍🥰💋💋
Ahhh Sarah I love you soo much I’ve been watching for a bit but have never seen any videos this early
Thank you for referencing the best line ever from Crocodile Dundee 😂
I take it this is in RGB comparison strictly? RGB is not linear, so your percentage will not match the human-perceived distance between colors. RGB -> to -> LaB and a DeltaE metric is the most common for human-color-perception. There are far more complex colorspaces and DeltaE formulas for getting even closer to human-perception.
From what I can tell, (dunno if it's some app telling you or working it out yourself) working out the problem, the sum of your remainder (absolute value of N-N) for [R]/256, [G]/256 and [B]/256 / 3 * 100 == your percentage over/under. "0" would be a perfect match. In that case, this means that 100 - UnderOver% == how close you are in RGB.
Here's a chart I did plotting my findings:
RGB is a 3 concatenated strings of hex values padded to always be 2 digits prepended with a #.
# | RR | GG | BB
hex is base 16, we normally use base 10. It's just a fancy way of saying I can count to N with a single digit! (in computer terms, the extra 6 from from letters a-f)
so in base 16: we have 0-F (16 possible 0-9, A-F) single digits.
Weird Count: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b,c,d,e,f,10,11,12,etc....
so in base 10: we have 0-9 (10 possible 0-9) single digits.
Normal Count: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,etc....
To keep things simple I posted the hex-to-dec conversion to work with numbers, not both numbers and letters, posted the difference between the two colors separated r-g-b values, and shown the math worked out for the average.
in the "Diff:" Category, a positive number shows how far UNDER you were, where a negative number shows how far OVER you were per the 3 colors.
Results are super close to your video's posted scores.

Color matching a kitty? You win
There are definitely cyan and magenta paints!! Many painters love them actually. My guess as to why you didn't see any is that you were shopping inexpensive student brands. The pigments that make magenta, and ESPECIALLY cyan, are expensive -- and never used in cheap sets or student grade paints. But it also might be an oil paint thing. I would have used acrylics; it's much easier cleanup!
Love that you did the kitty too!! Great job !!
That cat really loves Sarah. They don't normally like their paws touched.
He just loves ANY attention ❤️
Thank you so much for mentioning the accounts, because I wanted to check them out and Jazza didn't mention them! I am pretty sure they were wiping the knife between picking up pigments, it would keep your palette cleaner.
Blick Artist Oils Cobal Blue, Cadmium Yellow Light, Cadmium Orange, Viridian, Ultramarine Rose, Ultramarine Violet. Williamsburg Handmade Oils Pyrrole Red and Lead White/Flake White, these would be a good range of clean colors for mixing. expensive, but it should be enough to mix pretty much any color you could want.
I once got a paint set that had RGB and CMY colours and Black and White. Made colour matching in the colour theory class I was in so much easier.
Meanwhile, here I am, screaming at fifteen-year-old me for not paying more attention during the "boring color theory" part of art class. I think you did quite brilliantly!
With the teal one, very difficult. PG50 is the cobalt teal pigment, a pure pigment that can't be mixed. You can get teals with the PG7 and PB15 and white, but it will not be quite the same. Not as bright and cheery as the pure cobalt pigment. So color mixing has a lot to do with the pigments you choose.
About CMY: cyan in paint pigment is very close to PB15 with white added. Magenta is PV19 or PR122. Yellow can be any pure, not to cool, not too orangey, yellow. Hansa yellow, Cadmium yellow, Azo yellow are some good options. It's all about the pigments. I learned all this after having your same frustration. Hopefully this helps!
Ooh this is helpful! Thank you!!
@@SarahRenaeClark you're welcome. I wish I had learned this long ago. I wondered why some reds and blues did not make a pretty purple when mixed. Now I know it's because I was using either paint tubes that had several pigments in them instead of a single pure pigment and it produced muddy colors when mixed with other paints with multiple pigments. Or I used two different paint colors, like cad red and ultramarine blue, that produced muted colors because their tones were almost opposite on the color wheel. You know that already, but knowing the pigments really helps when trying to get a specific color.
Tu es tellement talentueuse! 😍
suprisingly a lot of countries teach red blue yellow as THE primary colors. in america i was taught that red blue and yellow are the only primary colors even in my highschool art classes... my school didnt have a good art program when i started there, but by the time i graduated art was one of the biggest programs. though they still taught RBY
You did so great! Color matching is so hard 😅
I thought you were gonna swatch paint on your kitties paw for a minute 😂 fun video :)
Not with oil paints! Nooo 😂
I'm team white and gold too. It boggles my mind how anyone can see blue and black. Oddly enough the dress is blue and black. 🤔🤨
I know, right? That baffled me.
You should do a video making something using watercolor and colored pencils. I love watercolor, not so good at colored pencils, but I think combining them could be really cool.
I watched a painter friend take half an hour to get a mix just the right color. Nice cat.
Oh my gosh bringing the Crocodile Dundee references!
What a fun challenge! Congrats on that 99%! =)
That was fun! Thank you.
Doing this challenge I feel that people should only be able to use the primary colours, white and bland, AND neon colours in the primary colours as they can brighten the colour while keeping the intensity.
