  • This is a reshoot of my last video. I realised that I did not explain myself so well in that video, so this new video should explain things more clearly.
    In this video we bring together everything we've learnt so far into one palette. If you are unfamiliar with the terms used in this video, please check out previous episodes first:

    This was absolutely the clearest video of colour mixing I've ever seen in my life. I'm getting my washi tape out. The best method EVER.

    • @OtoKano
      @OtoKano  Před 5 lety +1

      So glad you like this method! Happy painting Ruth!

  • @1973jfox

    Thank you. The most informative yet simple to understand explanations of color theory I’ve seen on CZcams yet.

    @dorothyeileen Před 3 lety +5

    Wow. This is so Super helpful! I am really appreciating your training and teaching style. I'm so glad to have found your channel! I've been catching up on all the color theory videos this week. I can't say enough about how happy and lucky I feel - to have access to such a deep dive into color theory. You're awesome!

    Thank you for another great, easy to understand video. Thank you also for showing us how to make user friendly palettes with these ideas. They are very helpful, as I am a beginner/intermediate.

  • @angiewright-artist8246

    Excellent video Oto! The diagram and sticky tape to separate keeps it clear visually and you were very concise summing up the explanation and pointing out the differences and how to use to your advantage

    Thank you for creating this series. I started watching last night and I have to say this is the most thorough color theory series I’ve come across. Thank you so much for providing such detailed and thoughtful content. I’m a makeup artist who is starting to dab into watercolor. Much appreciated! Love from Alabama, USA ❤️

    Watching video while testing QOR paints...:) Both episodes make sense- thank you for trying so hard to explain something that might look a bit tricky until you try to apply rules in real life.

    • @OtoKano
      @OtoKano  Před 5 lety

      You're so right. It is a tricky concept until you try it in real life.

    I very happily just became a Patron of yours! I should have done it sooner! Your content is fabulous and love hearing your soothing voice and even the way you swirl watercolor on a porcelain surface is mesmerizing! Your color theory explanation is so easy to comprehend and love the many steps you have broken it down to and it is free!!!!! I am so happy to "Patron" your channel!!!!! (I only Patron 3 others - your friends Eve, Denise and Steve ) and I learned of all 4 of you (and other CZcamsrs from Lindsay, the Frugal Crafter. Like she says - the rising tide floats all boats! Love that you all refer to each other and more, to many to mention, okay - Teoh, Marty, Sade, Karia, stop me!Lol!

    @gerridauer9092 Před 2 lety

    Thank you! I watched your series and it’s the first time that it’s all made sense to me in terms of mixing and muted and brights. I never realized the importance of the different shadow colors to show off the bright colors either.

    Dr. Oto Kano, you are brilliant! I had figured out that proximity would give me a true purple, cr and wb. But I had not been able to figure out the green (the reason) using blues and yellows. I knew how to get there, but not why. Thanks for making it clear in such an easy way.

    Your color theory lessons are awesome. QUESTION-since you use a single green for E&F, could you then use the xtra space on the 12 circle palette for the cool yellow??
    Thanks for all of this wonderful information

  • @martie837
    @martie837 Před 8 měsíci

    I’m a little confused. It seemed like I’m supposed to have an extra three colors if we’re doing a warm and cool of the 3primaries. I ended up going by your list below. Really cool series!

  • @erins.5420
    @erins.5420 Před 5 lety

    Do you have yellow shade or blue shade for (E) green? Yellow shade will mix a perfect neutral with the quin rose. Blue shade will mix a purpleish navy like you showed in your demonstration. Love the egg palette! And idea for mixing within the brackets for brights. There are a few exceptions to the rule but great way to explain things. Happy New Year!!!!

    WOW!!!! OK, I just watched this video twice, saved it to my Watercolor playlist and has completely opened up my eyes to color mixing. I have been so lost on this topic, but this video and series in its entirety has been fantastic. Question - What is the palette (rectangle) you are using? I need one of those ;) Thanks Dr. Kano

    • @OtoKano
      @OtoKano  Před 4 lety +1

      It's just a ceramic plate I bought cheaply from a local discount store. Any ceramic plate with maximum flat surface will do :)

  • @carolferguson5467
    @carolferguson5467 Před 5 lety

    Would that be true when painting were in wet on the paper, does that create muted colors?

  • @dragonsong86
    @dragonsong86 Před 5 lety +1

    This makes sense to me until I try to use a color that is right by the primary split line as the base color for mixing. For example, if I use E where you have (E) as the base for mixing, then on the right hand side where you have (E)+(C) and (E)+(B), I would mix E+(B) and E+(C), right? But then on the left hand side... there is nothing there to mix it with going counterclockwise that is still within the E to (B) 3rd of the palette. So what do I do to get the bright red-orange and muted red-orange? Should it be E+A for the bright and E+cool yellow for muted? Hope my question makes sense! lol

  • @MissNiyuu
    @MissNiyuu Před 5 lety +1

    Should I pick warm or cool primaries?
    I want to try Schmincke horadam so I thought getting the primaries in tubes would be the best thing to get, but I can't decide if I should get warm or cool tones...

    • @OtoKano
      @OtoKano  Před 5 lety +1

      The best option is to get both. Here's a video explaining why: czcams.com/video/AjGvtp0lOtw/video.html

  • @alvax2455
    @alvax2455 Před 5 lety +1

    very interesting, thank you! What about browns and blacks? are all browns muddy? how to decide how to mix a brown, an e.g. burnt sienna-like color? thank you.

    Help!!!!! I'm confused about something. In the upper pallet you have 15 colors. In your porcelain pallet you only have 13 colors. How do I number the 15 colors. What happened to the missing colors? I thank you in advance. Eddie Hi. I was wondering if you had a chance to answer my inquiry. Thank you.

  • @skye4365
    @skye4365 Před 5 lety +2

    excuse me dr. kano, can I request a buff titanium video? I'm planning on learning urban painting and I saw two Daniel Smith sets that was advertised for Urban Painting and they both contained Buff Titanium and I was curious if you'd only use it as its pure color or could you use it for mixing. Im planning of having it in my palette but if i'd only use it as it is, it would be useless.
    Sorry for the long question😅

  • @roudhamm

    I still don’t understand why you don’t have a spot for a cool yellow ;( 2 red, 2 blue, 2 orange, 2 purple, 3 green and 1 yellow.. these numbers trigger my OCD :( pls take one of greens out for another yellow oto, MAKE YELLOW GREAT AGAIN!

    • @OtoKano
      @OtoKano  Před 5 lety +5

      That's totally coming Burak! This is just for learning color theory. In practice, when painting in real life, of course having cool yellow is amazing. It's my favourite color to have and I never make a palette without my holbein Aureloin.
