Вставка

- In this video I go over matching color. First I talk about how to physically set your studio space up to match color then I get on the palette to show how I can mix up any color using the primaries and white.

Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" in my new home of Sarasota Florida.

I love this channel. Nothing pretentious about oil painting, no unnecessary empty talk. Just straight to the point "this is what I do and what works for me".
Take all my likes.
I gotta say best painting channel in whole UA-cam, I love the way you explain and I understand easily, thanks for your time
Seableking thanks! I really appreciate it!
The best for sure 🙏
Agree✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
Totally agree best teaching painting channel. I've seriously been looking for a channel like this for over TWO YEARS, but of course there was lot of content and tutorials, but never ever ever exactly what I needed or looked for. Until NOOOOOW, so haaaappg
I really love your no bullshit approach to painting.
Thank you, my painting-game really improved since I started watching your videos.
That approach is the whole reason I started the channel. Thanks for the support!
However long you've been painting it's always good to go back over basics from time to time. The way you approach a subject is great to watch, love your work as well.
I love listening to Chris! He really knows how to explain the painting process. I have learned so much much from him!
omg that trump impression lol. Great video as always very helpful.
Literally this is gonna make my paintings soo much better. I ve been drawing for a couple of years but I am a complete beginner at color mixing and this helped a lot
Glad I could help!
Outstanding. Clear instructions and very encouraging- every teacher should teach this way.
Dead on imitation of the president, I laughed so hard coffee came out my nose! By the way , love ur videos ur my absolute #1 oil painting coach , I’ve only been painting for 2 months but I have gotten so much better just from watching your videos and listening to ur advice! Thank you! P.S I love how you really explain painting like it’s football....it makes it so easy to understand.
I'm so glad you liked my imitation hahah It makes me so happy that you like my videos and that they help.
Hahahaha, Same exakt thing here 😂😂😂😂i just spit out my coffee, couldn’t believe it. I’m just starting with oils. And the fumes of the Terpentine bother me that much, and I can’t get some things here in Germany you use there, so I just found schmincke medium w. Hope I can go on now.
@@ceedee743 don't use turpentine, use odourless mineral spirits from an art shop; or even better, use water soluble oils.
Honestly probably one of the best youtube videos for understanding colors, definitely subscribed!!
Such a useful video! Chris is not only a good painter but an amazing teacher! I've always thought mixing colors is a complicated thing, but he just explains it in such an easy way to understand. Thanks a lot for this video!
i’m an absolute beginner and your videos are so helpful. Thanks for all of the advice, you have no idea how useful it’s been
This is the best video I've seen on color mixing. This has been a huge eye opener for me. I've taken these tips and am on my way to my first painting with using only the primaries and it's going fabulous
Best explanation of colour mixing ever !!! simple and to the point . thank you
WOW! This is sooooooo helpful. I could mix easy approximate colors but never understood how to get "exact" matches. Thank you. :)
Without doubt my favourite painting channel. Did my first oil painting today after delaying for too long…
Chris, you are my ‘go to’ for advice on all thing oil.
Excellent content 👏👏👏
This is the best explained video I’ve seen and also it’s not boring me while you explain😂😂
I'm new to oils and your channel. Your voice and no-nonsense, approachable style is 110% for me. Thanks
Nice video. Love that you get to the point quickly and illustrate with examples.
I’m new to oil painting and got my supplies all I need is paint thinner and canvas panels. Your videos are the best and well explained and straight forward. I’m looking forward to more videos from you.
I am an amateur painter and have no desire to ever be anything more. I do it for fun and don't want to turn it into work like a professional. With that being said and make no mistake I do want get better and always learn new stuff. I have watched quite a few of your videos and like them very much and intend to watch the rest of them. I like the way you seem to cut through the difficulties and complexities and explain things in a manner even I can understand :-) And aren't afraid to share the areas of struggle. Thank you for your hard work in making these videos. Don't think they are not appreciated, I do appreciate them.
The BEST explanation ever on color mixing!
This is amazing! I'm only just starting with mixing colors, and with barely any fundamentals so what you've demonstrated is really mind-blowing. Thank you for sharing your technique! The way you present it is really approachable and encouraging for me to experiment with.
This man is literally amazing! I started watching his videos since probably like November and I am loving his videos especially the paint talk videos and how he makes everything clear and how he explains it! his voice is so soothing! He gives so much advice to everyone! Thank You!
Wow, thanks!
Wow Chris, I think I finally found the painting coach I have been looking for. Thank you for your wonderful lessons.
Glad it was helpful!
I wish I saw this when I decided to get into art and digital paint back in 2020. It would have saved me a lot of time. I like using the mixing pad instead of color picking or color wheel. I still had a job at the time lol. I didn't find this channel until they cut us all and I started searching like June or July. I thank you for expanding my art skills. It gave me something to look forward to when everything else looked bleak.
Wow! Love the way you explained the colors. I finally untherstand how to do it.
You explain with no Complications. Thank you so so mush.
I sensed your videos on my Email , to look at it tomorrow.
You give me the desire to paint ever day, thanks again X
And I started to draw again, love it.
Your horse in the background looks fantastic, that would be great to see a tutorial on, I am in the middle off learning pencils drawings of horses, really hard but getting there
That’s all I kept looking at mostly, lol
I cannot tell you how useful I found this. Thank you Chris.
I really love your painting and I think this one is the 20th video I watch when I should be watching this first coz its what I need, color mixing. Im an acrylic lover but basically the principles are the same. Thank you for the free tutorial, I hope that you have more than patreons to cover us who can't afford to be one. hehe.
I’m in the middle of painting a portrait which is going rather well considering that I’m a landscape painter, but I cannot for the life of me mix a proper skin tone! Even using the primary’s, they’re all turning out too gray and dull. I have a rather tan and warm complexion, and my portrait is missing that spark of life in the skin. This video really helped a lot. I always come to your channel only when I need tips. I love how you don’t have a 3 minute long intro and how you don’t go on rants about other shit, you’re just straight to the point and extremely easy to understand. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’ve helped me improve a lot! Sending love from Canada❤️
This is the single greatest video on colours I've seen no cap
Very easy to understand. Exactly what i was looking for!
Oh man. The complimentary color to dull and add realism to the mix is an amazing tip. Way to open my eyes
You have an awesome channel. I gotten back into painting and am learning the ins and out of oils. YOU ARE SO GOOD at explaining things! Thanks for being fun and not boring. p.s. good impression there in the begining
You're a legend. Such awesome teachings, really grateful for the high quality content, thank you.
That helped me. I’m going to mix my own paint color swatch for my walls in my house, and this helped me remember color theory from art class in college. Thank you! What fun!
Very useful tips and cool sense of humor🔥 thanks!
Great information , haven’t painted for a long time, awesome reminder on primaries and secondary’s. 👍
Love your videos. Don't ever stop sharing your knowledge. Also I laughed so hard at the impersonation at the beginning. 😂
I stopped painting for a while cause I always got frustrated mixing & matching colors.. I appreciate this so much! Very helpful!!
Excellent, so well explained. This will save me a lot of wasted paint! Thank you so much!

The best painting channel
I have learned more about mixing colors in this 10 min than in any full length art class I’ve ever had
Thank you so much for all your content! My painting definitely improved since I started watching your channel and I love the way you explain everything. Would it be possible to make a video on portrait backgrounds (tips on which colors to use, how to do it, when it is appropriate, the lighting, etc.) It would be awesome :)
thanks, man, this is really good content!
I'm a big fan now I must say your a pleasure to watch funny, I'm on my second oil painting I'm learning so much from you so Thankyou my friend
Great tips! I never would've thought of these.
Glad it was helpful!
My personal favourite palette is yellow ochre, cadmium red, ultramarine, burnt umber and titanium. This is all i have ever needed for portraits.
Excellent again. You are a natural teacher. Funny too! 👍
Thank you! 😃

Thanks so much as always!!!
This was very helpful!!!! Thx
great tips dude👍
Man thank you so much. I have been struggling and struggling with getting a certain colour when my pallet has burnt umber, white, cad yellow deep, ultramarine blue, cad red, quinachronome magenta, etc etc etc. It makes it so hard to figure out what would change what I'm working with to match my reference. You are the boss today.
Thank you for your valuable information 👍🏻🙏🏻
Amazing & very helpful 😇👍
This is extremely helpful! Much less daunting! 🙏🏼✨
رسمك فظيييييع 😍💞💞💞
Excellent demo!
Glad you liked it!
I agree, best painting tutorials on line. Please can we have one on choosing portrait backgrounds and on glazing portraits, when to and how to.
Thank you so much for this video.
This was very helpful. I will start off with one color...by the time I finish I have a huge pile of the right color! But at least I'm getting there. I rarely use the same pallet of color. I just use what the picture needs. Perhaps I should rethink this. Thank you!
great advice thankyou
Maaan, u good at explaining 😻
Awesome guidance thanks sir
Great channel, thanks man.
Thanks Coach.
I love your Sebastian Maniscalco portrait!🤩
thanks man for your time
Mixing colors ALWAYS was my weakest link and I was desperately waiting for a video that does not just explain how to mix colors but 'how to get to one color from another'.
Subscribed :)
Yes, same here. This video was helpful compared to many others I've watched on color mixing.
You say that color mixing WAS your weakest link. So does that mean you have gotten better with it and did this video help you with that?
Color mixing is my current weakest link but I'm working on it.
This video was great for me thank you
Glad it was helpful!
The address to the nation impression had me rolling
Excelent video tutorial
What are your suggestions for preventing colors from getting too muddy?
Phenomenal polo player in the background, perhaps a tutorial on that painting when you have time.
