    What a great video. I'm interested in the Alizarin Crimson you used... what the pigment information is, and you said you made a video on it? I can't find the video on your playlist can you provide a link?

      I think you go to my channel and an magnifying glass icon comes up . It is called Alizarin Crimson. The brand I use is professional grade Windsor Newton. The unprofessional grade will fade. Those reds are very fugitive over time.

    Thanks!! What is high key painting?

    • @jomackenzie7065
      @jomackenzie7065  4 роки тому +1

      Great Question. A high key painting is a painting that only uses the lighter half of the value scale and never goes below a five. Monet's painting of Notra Dam is often done in a high key.

    Hi, in which occasions would you prefer to use premixed grays instead than mixing it yourself? Thanks for your attention and thanks for your wonderful video.

    • @jomackenzie7065
      @jomackenzie7065  2 роки тому +1

      I have never owned a tube of gray paint. I always mix my grays.

      @@jomackenzie7065 hi, thanks for your reply I'm grateful. I liked particularly "daniel smith Janes' gray" (a mix of brunt sienna and ultramarine), I used it for tonal values study. Now it's empty so I wanted to try "Daniel Smith Alvaro's greys" (I got the warm and the cold versions but
      I didn't painted yet). I'm planning to follow Alvaro's classes maybe I will discover a new way to use it. For now I did only monochromatic studies. Btw I like to mix them by myself quite a lot that's why I'm very curious to find out how people exploited premixed greys in watercolours.

    I'm glad you have nice things to say about viridian. Michele Webber said it is terribly unnatural and doesn't belong in landscapes as foliage.

      @jomackenzie7065  Рік тому

      Wow...google Susan Abbott.She is my watercolor mentor. She only has viridian on her pallet. Look at her greens and also JOhn singer Sargent......huge viridian user.

      Came across my old comment here, and just wanted to clarify Michele Webber was talking about phthalo green blue shade, often called viridian hue. Real viridian is much lower tinting strength and I like it a lot.

    Informative. But your voice is too low and then the intro music blasted!!!! Please pay attention to that just like you pay attention to the qualities of paints. Quality counts.

      Steve Sidare indeed. I am not sure how that happened. It is only slightly louder n my computer. But i have a ear that has trouble and am very sensitive to high noise levels. I will err on the side of low volume from now on. So thanks for letting me know. I still have so much to learn.
