  • Sometimes a straight black just isn't the color you need. Maybe you want a red tinted black or a blue tinted black. Imagine if you could make a whole range of colors like payne's gray, cobalt blue, prussian blue, or dioxazine purple?

    With just phthalo blue, magenta, and yellow you can make so many different shades of dark tints that will sometimes work even better than the ones you can buy in the store. Plus only purchasing 4 of 5 colors in bulk and making your own colors can save you a fortune.

    Thanks again to my friends Sandra (czcams.com/users/SandrasSensations) and Chris Breier (czcams.com/users/ChrisBreier) for providing the split cup and teaching me about color theory in a way that made sense.

      Cool split cup! I was thinking the painting dried darker because the colors are transparent and you poured it over a darker color?

    • @LeftBrainedArtist
      @LeftBrainedArtist  Před 2 lety +2

      You are so welcome! Me neither. It was odd when I was learning but starting to become natural. It isn't necessarily adding yellow but adding the opposite of the color I was using. So purple has a complimentary (straight across the color wheel) of yellow so mixing those together darken/muddy/flatten each other.

    Interesting that you come from a background of EXACT sciences, but tackle one of the least predictable mediums to channel your creativity. OTOH maybe you are 'corralling cats using the science of fluid-dynamics. I like to understand the dynamics (control) of the pouring medium. And there are an exponential number of variables. Thank you!

    do the colors split when poured? I use acrylic fabric paint and when diluted for some things like sun printing, the blends will break into the base colors

    Curious 🤔 why didn't you use white to lighten the colors?

    • @LeftBrainedArtist
      @LeftBrainedArtist  Před 8 měsíci

      White makes them more pastel and not necessarily lighter. At least an opaque white does. I don't use a transparent white with my colors because I am doing acrylic pouring with my paint and I haven't found a transparent white that work well with this.

I'm in over my head with research on this tonight because I'm finding sources that say for instance, blue and yellow don't make green, but black. But we see it as green because both colors are typically "contaminated" with green. But we live in a world where such exact colors to create black are too imperfect to follow what color theory says, so in practicality, blue and yellow do make green. I'm frikkin confused
