Thank you a lot for the Quick Tip. I understood: CHANGES IN VALUE: As objects move into the distance, their values tend to get closer together and merge to some average value. This is what happens: ♦ the lights get darker. ♦ the darks get lighter. CHANGES IN SATURATION: As objects move into the distance, they become less saturated. That is why intense vivid colored objects jump forward in a painting and less saturated dull colors tend to recede. CHANGES IN HUE: In general, the cooler hues are found in the distance and the warmer hues are closer to you. As you move into the distance yellow disappears first, followed by orange and red until only the violets and blues remain.
Your quick tips are so much more than "tips". You have a rare ability to present things in a very simple, easy to understand and non intimidating way, unlike so many teachers I had.
Great lesson! I purchased three full length lessons and they are worth every cent. Clear, easy to understand and full of excellent content. I recommend them 100%. Thank you Diane!!!
Dianne, when you are doing one of your downloads and for the sake of time you already have your notan mapped out, did you use a "terpy" Fr. ultra marine blue and a bit of Oxide Red to sketch with? Thanks!
Steve, I've not used acrylics as my painting medium since the early 1970's, so don't feel qualified to give you a definitive Quick Tip on how they work. What I can say here is that you can blend them by keeping them wet, and using a fine mister to help keep them wet is a good idea.

Good summary, Karl.
Nicely summarised. Thanks
@Dianne ma'am....many a times I find cool colours in the foreground and warm colours in the distance. Can you please tell me how to go about that?

Joani, I use a Tombo ABT N65 pen brush.
Would that work on linen as well?
It should work on any gessoed surface. The Tombow is water soluble so it can be easily edited and used on any non-absorbent surface as an under layer.
Oh wow, good to know - I love the Tombow markers - have 3 shades of gray.
Thanks for such a simple and clear explanation.
You are welcome!
You're an awesome teacher!
Thanks.
Thank you, this was very helpful.
My pleasure.

Could you do a quick tip on how to blend acrylics in a painting?
