I AM SO GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR THESE VIDEOS! SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND AND KEEPS ME HOPEFUL THAT I CAN, ACTUALLY, PAINT IN WC SOMEDAY. YOU MATTER!
Oh my goodness, This is the first time I actually understood color theory. I just reached a major milestone. Pay attention to what she says about the color wheel, about choosing colors next to each other to make beautiful color schemes. I kept getting stuck on warm and cool and never really understood the color wheel until now. I think it's finally all coming together for me. I studied Lorraine Watry's color chart which is a spin off from Stephen Quiller's using Daniel Smith Watercolors and then put this tutorial about split Primary Pallet right next to it and like a miracle, it all clicked. I've visited many art classes online over the past few years; from books to online classes to paid tutorials, and have not yet come across anything explained as well as L. Watry's lessons. I'm so thankful I found her. I can't wait for our online zoom tutorial. Lorraine has a special talent for teaching not to mention her amazing paintings where each one is more beautiful than the next. Thank you Lorraine for sharing your talent with us.
Antoinette, I am so glad it was helpful! Thanks for the feedback and comment!
I realized my art store sells a box of 5ml tubes containing those exact six colors in the Daniel Smith brand! Thanks, I've been doing a lot of research and found your video very helpful
You are welcome. I am glad you were able to find the DS paints near you.
Lorraine, thank you so much for this information. I've read a lot about watercolor technique and theory and somehow the simplicity of what you explained in this video has escaped me! I really appreciate your willingness to take the time to share your experience with us.
I am so glad my videos are helpful.
Great information. Thanks!
You bet! Happy painting!
Thank you for sharing this great information, nicely explained. I love watching you with the paint brush in your hand, seems like it's just an extension of you. Will look forward to your next video.
Thank you Carroll. After 26 years, the paint brush feels like an extension of me! :>)
I just went to your website to look at the detail of this video. Thank you!
Burnt sienna and ultramarine make fantastic greys , there are roughly the 7 colours I use
I agree. It's a great mix.
I am a beginner but not completely clueless. You videos go straight to the point. Thank you for the great content delivered in a very nice timely manner. I have subscribed to several you tube watercolor channels, this one by far is my favorite. I want to continue on painting BUT I would also love to learn how to sketch and perhaps learn to to draw good sketches. Where do I start ? I checked your website and I don’t know where to start from. Kind regards :-)
Hi, I am glad my videos are helpful. I have thought about doing some drawing videos. I will have to add those to my list. I would look on UA-cam for How to Draw videos in the mean time. Just sitting down every day and sketching something like an apple, a coffee cup, or anything you have laying around can start to help train your eye and hand. It really is about repetition.
Thank you, that is helpful :)
You are welcome. Thanks for the feedback.
Very interesting, thank you 😃
You are welcome!
I have noticed that some pigment colors like PY140 as an example look different between paint companies and one company's phthalo blue is different than another company's phthalo blue or winsor blue. Would you mind sharing the specific paint brands that you use for each color? Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with all of us!
Hi Angel, Yes, the same pigment in different brands can look completely different. I have a blog post on my website that shows the colors on my palette. Here is the link: www.lorrainewatrystudio.com/blog/2020/6/3/the-colors-on-my-watercolor-palette
hm, my palette looks similar, but I use a green instead of the orange yellow and I have a primary and secondary palette.
Maybe that's why some split-primary palettes work well, because some modern colors are more primary and secondary colors are used instead
of e.g. having no primary colour and instead having two colors that are too much in one of two directions and when mixed come close to one primary colour.
Through the too high proportion of these two colour directions a bit into a muddy look.
Yes, the variety of pigments available and the differences from one brand to another for the same color can make a difference in the out come of a mix, too.
I have 12 wells on my palette, and I plan on using the ones here. I added yellow ochre and raw Seinna and was wondering if indigo would be a good choice as a neutral tint.
I think indigo would work fine as a neutral tint and a dark.
Also I was wondering if these paint tubes are one pigment color or combination of pigments in one tube?
Most of my paints are one pigment colors. On the blog post with my color chart, it has a red X for the paints that are more than one pigment.
Hi, I have a question. I have dyslexia and because of that, my math is terrible. I just got a 36 pallet of White Night water colors. Id like to make a color chart but Im so confused on the spacing. I only have 7x10 paper. I know I cant possibly get 36 colors on it. How would I do the chart on a few pieces of paper? How would you break it up? I was thinking of doing 18 paints?? Idk.. Im still learning, forgive my ignorance. I Love and appreciate your videos, Thank you
I think the easiest thing would be to tape the back of the paper together and make a bigger piece. Then you can decide if you want to do 1/2 or 1 inch squares and lay them out across the bigger piece of paper. You can leave them taped together or remove the tape to store them. I hope this helps and I appreciate the feedback. Happy painting!
Lorraine Watry Great idea! Thank you!
