    Showing the color wheel while explaining shadows is really helpful.

    You dropping the paintbrush without it having any purpose in the video, as in you could have easily cut it out gave this short a bit of realism that was so out of the blue that I realized how used we are to “perfect” and edited content

    • @MalleryJane
      @MalleryJane  Před rokem +56

      Right! I was mad at first and thought I could cut it out but you would see that random mark, or start over or just show it how it really is

    "Sorry, dropped a paint brush."
    That is too relatable, cause whenever im painting something that is really coming out good. Im certainly gonna drop a marker or a brush and ruin it. 😢

    I love this color theory explanation AND I super love that you didn't edit out the paintbrush drop and resulting *imperfect* mark. I appreciate the authenticity of this teaching story!

    this is fine but you should also be aware of the reflective light that comes from surfaces--the sand is golden, therefore there would be a reflective golden light on the underside of the cactus

      A little bit, really close to the bottom, but the biggest thing showing up would be the blue from the sky 😊

  • @ravensnerdworld
    @ravensnerdworld Před rokem

    A few years ago i studied graphic art and design at a tech school and after learning colour theory i almost never use blacks in my art anymore. Using colours for your shadows just elevates the art so much

  • @leonieschmidt8322
    @leonieschmidt8322 Před rokem +4

    Thats a great tip :) but the color wheel is actually not completely right. you used red instead of magenta, which can lead to muddy mixed colors (for example greyish purple). This could be confusing for beginners

    also keep in mind that the color of the shadow will depend on what around the object, especially in full illustrations. Shadows are a result of the ambient lighting and the absence of the direct light, so for example in scene on a sunny day with a blue sky, the lighting will be yellowish and the shadows will have a blue tinge. But in a different scenario, like where you have light shining into a red room for example, the shadows will be red to reflect the ambient light of the room and the bounce light from other objects in the background. For isolated drawings like this, I like to pick a color that’s roughly opposite the color wheel from the color of the light, which mimics that effect of ambient light pretty well.

    Just to clarify to people, the complementary color for red is light blue, not green. The red used as shadow here is in a slightly different hue to become a true complementary color

    • @HannahIrene719
      @HannahIrene719 Před rokem

      In the CMY model, red and cyan are complementary. In the RYB model, red and green are complementary.

    What a fantastic idea. I figured darker colores for shadows instead of black looks nice in acryl. But I think I would never have thought of this. I gotta try if it applies for acryl too :D
    Btw how do you keep your brushes from spreading out? I always struggle to drae think lines :o

  • @necipdemirbuga7024
    @necipdemirbuga7024 Před 10 měsíci

    using a darker color adjacent to the main color is imo prettier example: if you use blue as a shadow to green or violet as a shadow to red

    Do the same color rules apply when you’re painting underwater scenes? Or do they change because of the way the light refracts through the water?
