How I choose which colours to use
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 січ 2017
- In short, I choose three primary colours plus 1 or 2 others. The main yellow I use is Hansa Yellow Medium. As for the red, I would look at the scene and pick a red that's closest. I pick blue randomly but if I want granulation, I use French Ultramarine. So the typical colours that I use are...
1. Hansa Yellow Medium
2. Some red
3. Either Phthalo Blue or Ultramarine
4. Yellow Ochre for mixing skin tones when needed
5. Pre-mixed green from tube for scenes with lots of foliage
My general tip for beginners is to use a limited palette. Pick three primaries and stick to that. Don't go more than 4 primaries. You can use convenient colours like Green, Yellow Orche, Burnt Sienna but they should be colours that you are able to mix from primary colour that are already in your palette.
The palette box in the video is the Winsor & Newton Deluxe Sketcher box. Paints were replaced with Mission Gold, Daniel Smith and WN.

Something I forgot to mention. Unless you're into realism, it doesn't matter which three primary colours you use. Each set of primary colours will give you a different look/style. E.g. A painting with vibrant primary colours will look different from one painted with pastel colours. The most important thing is to stick to the initial colours that you use, and not use too many.
Teoh Yi Chie thanks mate!!
So it doesn't matter if the 3 primaries you choose are the warm or cool versions? You can choose any random combination at all?
Thanyoujo¿.
@@claudiahemmings2080 it does cause for example: if you mix a warm yellow with a cool blue you won't get a vibrant green. So if ur using a 3colour palette I'd suggest getting a primary yellow, red and blue as in they are neither cool or warm, afcoirse a split prolimary is wayyy more convenient
Excellent video - I would love to see more videos like this, where you talk us through your colour choices and mixes. Very very interesting and helpful for learners.
I don't always start with primaries, but I also usually stick to a few colors out of a set for each painting. It's easier and it makes the painting look more coherent :)
"Some red"
You cracked me up hard on that one
Thanks. lol. That's the problem of having too many colours. It's difficult to remember all their names.
Leodoz ppppp

Thank you so much, Teoh! This really helped me out a lot, especially being relatively new to watercolor. I wondered why some of my paintings had color harmony and others didn't. Now, I know I was using too many colors!
that cafe painting is beautiful. I really wish I could sketch scenes like that freely but unfortunately that's not something I know how to accomplish without lots of planning. Landscapes are doable and interiors aren't for whatever reason. idk
Just go for it. Learn from mistakes. And draw more.
I have just purchased my first set of watercolor and I am hooked! I have been overwhelmed with the color selections available and have been thinking that this is going to cost a fortune! I'm so glad that I have just found your channel because now I know that all I need are primaries and a few convenient colors, thank you! Now I need to learn color theory and I will be good to go👍
+Jo Anne Owens Have fun painting 😊
Thanks for sharing and keeping it simple. It’s easy to be dazzled by the number of colors available. I love it that you don’t bother to remember the names of some colors :)
Excellent !! Love viewing how you push and pull the colour around ...very meditative.
Thumbs up !!
Thanks :-)
Thank you, Teoh. You really gave me an aha! moment when you talked about the greens. Now I understand why that warmer convenience green would be so jarring in the sketch. That makes so much sense! Thank you!
These colors are very pleasing to the eye; very balanced with cool on one side and warm on the other.
I've been reviewing my own choices of colours lately and you got me thinking a lot in the last couple weeks since I watched this. Thank you.
Thank you Teoh, that was very thorough. Extremely helpful for we novice painter's out here inundated with all the daunting pigment choices. Thanks you again...!
Wow. This video came at the right time! I was just thinking and thinking and thinking about what colors I should pick while I was painting last night and today. It's always a delight to watch you blend your colors. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks :-)
Great advice. Very helpful. I am attracted to paintings done in a blue/grey and gold/cream.
Thank you for this! I get so overwhelmed with all the color choices, so it's nice to see the range you can get with only 3-4 colors. I think it helps to tie the painting together too since the colors have the same undertones.
When I first started learning; or, relearning watercolors, as an adult, I was introduced to the Split Primary color palette. I purchased Susie Short's Essential 7 watercolor set from Daniel Smith. It contained a warm and cool version of each of the primary colors plus a tube of Quinacridone Burnt Orange. I learned how to make vibrant secondary colors by combining the right primary colors. I could make some nice neutrals by combining complementary colors.
It's fun to play with color. I love watching them mix and mingle on watercolor paper.
I just started to sketch and paint with watercolor regularly and find your videos to be extremely helpful and inspiring. I’ve learned a few things about Singapore and how life is there since following you too. Art and travel at the same time! So lovely! Thank you so much for your amazing work! 🙏❤️
Thanks again Teah, this was very informative and brought certain facts to light for me which I'd never really paid too much attention to.
I like to use colours that have nothing to do with the image I am duplicating....makes it more out of the box ...and keeps my "control factor" out of the way.
I always run out of color and usually can't duplicate the same color all the time...lol
I love your videos, they are always so informative! Thank you Teoh :) hopefully i can start a travel sketchbook soon when i'm overseas and i think your channel is so helpful.
Very helpful video! 👍🏽 I buy tube watercolors so I can mix them inside tiny discarded shot 🥃 whisky/vodka/bourbon (or whatever) bottles 🍾. They look really cool re purposed full of lots of different colors lined up.on the shelf. Just shake & go. I mix them strong so they can be watered down if necessary. If you need it more opaque then the mixed color needs to be mixed in a sealed container with a wider mouth.
Hi Teoh, I really like your color picks on yellow and blue (like on your 2nd painting). I'll try to implement it on my next drawing.
Teoh you are always amazing.
Thank you for sharing your process with us. I've learned a lot from you.
I used to draw people on buses and delis in the 70s then life got in the way but still feel the pull to get back to it. I tried going back to it years later while on a bus but felt awkward... now inspired with your videos, especially since you offer tips on being a discreet sketcher. I found a book when I was in New York in the Guggenheim called Every Person in New York by Jason Polan and got re-ignited. His sketches are only B+W. Your sketches and colours are richer. You need to make a book - your work is fabulous - fresh, clean, simple and compelling. Thank you!
This video is so helpful-- thank you! Would love to see more like this!!!!
Thank you for your all tutorials, it really helps.
thank you. very informative! i never knew that the colours in my palette had to have primary colours that i can mix with. it's no wonder my paintings sometimes look very messy! :( this is good to know, thank u so much
Wow, this really explains a lot in a short video, like it very much!!
Excellent tips, ! I'm always looking for simple ways to mix skin tones..
I just watched another video of yours an hour ago, where you called Burnt Sienna a convenience color, and now you're doing the same thing here. Thanks for your videos my friend, we really appreciate it... In this case I have to call foul. Burnt Sienna is NOT a convenience color. It isn't a primary, so maybe that's why you're calling it that. Burnt Sienna is made of a single pigment - calcinated synthetic red iron oxide. A convenience color is a blend or mix of at least two pigments. You may be able to mix browns from your primaries but you'll never mix calcinated synthetic red iron oxide from your primaries. I do have both Raw Sienna and Burnt Sienna on my pallet, but the only convenience color I have is Indigo.
Thanks Teoh for another interesting and informative video! 😊
Thanks, your explenations and tips really helped me a lot.
This was so helpful to me!! thanks so much Teoh.
I've just found this channel 1 month ago but already loved all your videos
Great lesson on mixing colors, would love me to see more on this issue.
Thanks. I'll talk more about that in future videos.
Your style is AMAZING
you are a good teacher. thank you for all you do.
Thank you. Very informative. I like the olive green by the way. :)
This is excellent... you should do a lot more of these... colour mixing is rare!!
Thanks. Good idea
Even if I only use primary colors I like to have 6. Three warm tones and three cool tones. It makes it more versatile
This is so helpful!! Thank you :)
Very informative video! I learned a lot from your channel all the time!
Thanks \ (•◡•) /
Very insightful Beautiful blends!
I am learning and enjoying your videos immensely!
Personally I always have some Green Gold which mixed with brown and greens makes beautiful hues. I also have some violet in my palette beside warm and cold basic colors and some sienna and umber. I will definitely add some yellow ochre.
Thank you again!
I am looking for a “proper” ultramarine, I am wondering what brand you are using/if you have any recommendations? 😊
Hi Teoh thanks for an amazing lesson !!! I missed what kinda paper you've been using in this tutorial ??? Thanks again...🤗
hi Teoh. I'm new to your channel and I have a question. I WS recently at my near by art store and I found a Jane Davenport set of watercolors. I never heard of her before but the watercolor set came in a very useful container and I had a %50 of coupon so I got it $15. I have never worked with artist quality paints before only cotman but I barely had to touch these paints to get pigment out. however when I first looked at the half pans they looked so grainy. they looked like my aunts palette when sand and sea air got into it at the beach. Is this grainy texture to the paints while still in half pans normal? would you ever be willing to try these paints because your opinion would help so much since you have tried so many paint. thank you and sorry for long comment
great video! it's been about 8 months since i got my first watercolor set and I've spent most of my time on learning how to paint more confidently. I'm still learning & experimenting with different techniques but this video gave me a lot to think about in terms of how to mix paint and produce various colors. I really appreciate the basic knowledge of color theory here, I will definitely look at colors a lot differently when I paint from now on. :) I am learning a lot from your videos! thank you
+Shelby Miniesta Thanks 😊
Thx so much n I learn much from u . U are so nice !
Thanks 😁
Great advice!
I did the split primary set-model. 3 cold primary colors and 3 warm from Winsor and Newton professional line:
Warm: French Ultramarine, Scarlet lake, New Gamboge (
Thanks for the great content. So helpful. How did you get the third divider for the Deluxe Box? Did it come with it?
I enjoyed this segment Teoh as I do the others.
Gary.
thanks for the helpful video! :)
i hope i was the one who inspired it ;)
I can't remember. LOL. I get this question quite often. Now I can link to this video whenever I see that question again.
Great video! :D
Thank you :-)
Hey Teoh! i've seen the box you're using, the WN deluxe sketcher one, but there are only two rows for the paints, did you do modifications for yours to fit more?
+Noah Fryer-Kanssen There is a version that sells three rows of full pans instead of 16 half pans.
Hi! When you sketch a populated scene, what do you draw first? I imagine it's the people because they move? But I could be wrong.
I usually draw the background first, but I will leave areas to draw people who are supposed to be standing/walking in front. Drawing the background allows me to get an overview of the whole scene. If I draw people first, I might not have enough space to fit the background later on.
SO INTERESTING. Question: If I select three primary colors to paint with, should they all be either cool or warm or is it OK to mix them?
It’s okay to mix them. There will be limitations. Eg. Cool yellow and cool red can’t produce warm orange. But it’s still some kind of orange
I am very new to watercolour and found this video very informative.
Thanks ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )
I decided on 6 colors for my palette.... qu rose ds, pht blue gr sh ds, h yel light ds, f ultra ds, burnt sienna wnc, raw sienna wnc .... I really enjoy the mixes of those 6
Do you have any other suggestions?
Those colours are good
@@teohyc thank you
Excelent tips.
Thanks \ (•◡•) /
I’ve been told yo use ‘warm’ colors up front and ‘cooler’ colors in the distance. Some of the same colors are called ‘warm’ and some are called cool’. Could you go over the difference in the so-called ‘same’ colors and how to use them? How can one have a cool yellow and a warm yellow? A warm red versus a cool red? How does one learn/know the difference?
Warm and cool is a relative term for comparison. The shortcut is to use the colour wheel and see where that colour is on the wheel.
Every single video with a view of your palette, the paints look moist and soft. Is that because of the humidity in your area?
+Josh Lawson Not sure if it's the moisture but it could be. If your paints are too dry, you can use those mini spray bottle or mister.
Yeah, my paints dry to rocks pretty quickly (Why I love M. Graham so much). I use a mister prior to painting, let the water sit for a couple minutes, and by then the top layer is loose and moist. Everytime I see your videos, the palette/paints always seem super moist. Was curious if you mist them prior to your videos, or they stay mist due to the humidity. GREAT WORK MAN! I LOVE YOUR STUFF BTW....
8.24 which brand use blue-green?
That should be Phthalo Green (Blue shade)
👌👌👌💕
💗😊💕Thank you, brother💕😊💗
is the sketchbook from khadi? :) and what was the paper you used for the sketch?
That's the Khadi Papers sketchbook. The loose sheet is a Daler Rowney Aquafine.
thank you!
Which brand use Your phtalo blue?
Daniel Smith
@@teohyc thank you for answer
not using water brush?
+Vishal Namani I don't like to use waterbrush. It's difficult to control the water flow
Why does it always sound so loud and your home? 😜 do you live in Thailand?
+Kiki Kreates I'm from Singapore
What brush did you use in this?
Nevskaya Palitra. A sable watercolor brush from Russia
Teoh Yi Chie oh! Explains why ots so familiar. Im glad my local art store sells it. But its like... 5$ each brush
she has been in the sun for awhile to long.
