Colour theory doesn’t have to be complicated. Complementary colours pop. Analogous colours feel calm. Triadic colour schemes feel energetic. Monochromatic palettes lock in mood. Once you understand these basics, lighting and colour grading become far easier. You don’t need expensive setups either - clothing, environments, and simple LEDs can all create strong colour contrast. Intentional colour instantly makes content feel more cinematic and professional.

Black kills the delicacy and turns pink into dirty cement.

Black kills the delicacy and turns pink into dirty cement. I previously showed you the Raw Umber mix for soft skin tones, but adding Alizarin Crimson + Viridian Green + Ultramarine Blue creates the intense richness you need for petals and fabrics. For the perfect balance, mix two parts Alizarin to keep the redness dominant, with just one part each of Viridian and Ultramarine to deepen and cool the shadow. It creates a deep “Royal” depth instead of a flat grey. For color mixing tips, see the link in my profile. #mixingcolors🎨 #paintingtips #oilpainting

Here’s how I use complementary colors with tomatoes 🍅 Start with the opposite color on the color wheel, so for red start with green and for green start with red. This layer should be lighter in value so add a little more water to your mixture. This technique is a great way to make the colors a little more realistic since it’s helping bring down the saturation. Paper used: Arches 140 pound cold press.

Why do you need it? Color chart helps you to know your palette better. You can use a color chart to choose colors for your future painting as it consists of all possible shades from 2 pigments. The best way to do it is to put shades of 3 primary colors: yellow, red and blue. You can see that if you put 2 similar colors together the shade won’t look very different like what happened with phtalo blue and cobalt blue. I wanted to explore mixes with opera pink for a long time and finally I did! What mix is your favorite?
