    The Zorn pallete is a revelation. The infinite varieties of value that can be created from yellow ochre, ivory Black, alizarin crimson cadmium red and titanium white is genuinely astounding. By reducing the choices available it is somehow easier to concentrate on the painting. It's almost freeing. And tye Mote you use it, the less desire you have to go jack to a massive range of colour. It's not so useful in landscapes but can create a muted look .
    Your portraits are so vigorous. Love them. I'm going to have a go at 100 and see if 8 can progress any

      @LizaFlahertyArtist Рік тому +4

      @@LulArt yes. The alizarin makes pinkier pinks. It's got more zizz. I knownits probably not the traditional line up but it gives another dimension. I onownits probably cheating.
      I forgot to mention raw umber.

      Thank you for the lovely comment! I have been wanting to try the Zorn palette for ages, I think it suits portraiture so well. I really enjoy the muted-looking greens you can achieve with ivory black, yellow ochre, and titanium white. You've inspired me to finally give it a go! I'll try the traditional zorn palette first and then I'll try it with your additions (Alizarin and raw umber are two of my favourites, both staples in my palette!) Thanks for sharing your knowledge/experience with everyone. Good luck with the challenge, if you give it a try- I think you'll have a lot of fun! :-) 💛

    @arleebean has a wonderful video series on painting in limited palettes in watercolour. It might be neat to see how some of those unique combinations translate to oil or gouache.

    That limited palette with Viridian and Alizarin sounds interesting but really hard. Love to know how that watercolour ground works out. I've never heard of such a product!
    I've tried the Zorn palette with watercolour and it was surprisingly versatile! I want to give it a go with gouache sometime.

    From another art UA-camr @thefrugalcrafter I've learned clear gesso from liquitex is a really good base for coloured pencils and pastels because of the grittiness. How are your portraits going now?

    • @emhuesart
      @emhuesart  Рік тому +2

      Ooh thank you, I'll have to give it a try with other mediums! I can see how it would be great for pastels. The portraits are coming along slow but steady 😅 My next video will be a 100 heads update! I can tell that I am already learning so much from the challenge, I think it will be worth all the struggles!

    The Winsor and Newton clear gesso is the best. Smooth texture and actually drives completely clear, no milky finish. And craft acrylic paint gives the same effect and is a lot cheaper 💜✨️
