THE BEST WHITE IN THE WORLD

  • I am not even sure if white is one of the colors. Which is odd because it can look so great
    amongst them.
    That is, if you pay attention to a couple of key ideas.
    And that is what I am talking about this week.
    And not just talking, but demonstrating.
    Join me for a few minutes as we take a closer look at my favorite non-color, white.
    In this weeks video I am demonstrating 3 ideas.
    #1 White will work better in your art if it’s just a little bit harmonized with the surrounding colors.
    #2 Adding the tiniest amount of pure white in a spot or two of your painting can be a subtle
    but potent final adjustment.
    #3 OK here goes... I am going to share the recipe of my not so famous, custom white color. It is called “Lyla’s White” and is named after my eldest daughter, Lyla.
    I love both so much.
    We sell “Lyla’s White”, along with our other standard, custom colors in the Art2Life Store. www.art2life.c...
    But do me a favor and keep this recipe a secret just between us…ok?
    In the comments below, let us know, what you know about white.
    Happy art making today...

    I keep several squirt bottles of white mixes handy (a marble in each bottle helps with thorough mixing). One bottle is Nick's beautiful Lyla's. One is Payne's gray with titanium white, which is gorgeous, and I am still experimenting with a pale robin's egg blue combination, if anyone has suggestions.

    I have mixed whites but mainly for fluidity. To tone down the brightness I spray an instant coffee mix into Titanium white, acrylics of course. Walnut ink works too. Sometimes i mix white acrylic artists ink w thicker open acrylic white, a craft vanilla is fun to add to that...

    I had not thought much about whites until this video, which I found this very useful as an older 'emerging' artist. I can't wait to mix up Lyla's White and play around with whites which using some of the colours in my artworks.

    I've just mixed my own, with the addition of some flexible modeling paste and an iridescent medium. Looks posh!

    *Just spent the entire day watching most of your videos. Very inspirational. Thank you.*
    2 things I would love if you could discuss:
    1) How you decide which underpainting sections to mask around (keep) with the (usually white) overcoat and how you decide what to shape use. Also, do you envision the final overcoat design beforehand? How do you keep the interesting masked around areas balanced across the entire painting?
    2) If you could go over small paintings like this occasionally and show what you would do to make them better.
    Thank you ahead of time!

    @brandythompson6544 3 роки тому +1

    I agree with all you said-- the white is like no other color in the pieces-- it also needs to have balance and harmony with the other colors in the piece. Great idea to mix all the colors and add just a hint of it to the white- amazing how it makes a difference.

    Nice it reminded me of a commission I once got for a wedding. It had to be a painting in White - and I really enjoyed to make it playing with subtle tonalities intuitively.
    But at that time I was not quite aware of all you show here - and its really fun to see your videos.

  • @ltwig476

    Great mix! Thanks Nick. In oil, Iv'e been using the cad yellow light with a touch of raw umber. Turns the yellow a bit too gray. The opposing side, I use tiny bit of Paynes Gray & Ultramarine Blue. Because ultramarine is the closes blue to the richness of a cad. But now you got me thinking about replacing Paynes with Sap Green. When viewing the pixels of Adobe colors, you can kind of see how the pixels effect each other laying beside or translucent on top of each other. Instead of always grabbing white to lighten, lately I have been grabbing cad yellow light for rich light browns. A tiny bit of cheap orange cad instead of expensive orange cad serves to tone it down. Strange how you can make cheap paint play with expensive.

    It is NOT "A COLOUR"...it is the "perfect"(if that is possible) combination of the 6 COLOURS(aka:hues)found in a rainbow The proof?...: if you were able to shine "pure white light" through a prism, you would see: Red,Orange,Yellow,Green, Blue,Violet(aka the rainbow colours). In theory, if you were to reverse this experiment by shining Red,Orange,Yellow,Green, Blue,Violet-coloured light back through that same prism, they would blend to make "White Light".Sincerely, David W. Jones, visual artist/painter/art instructor since 1983.
