RYB isn't *outdated* when you're still working with physical pigments and I think that's an important note.

[@aquabluerose7734]

CMYK is more accurate though in terms of what the primaries are (and CMYK is for physical pigments just like RYB.). It's just a slightly hue shifted version of RYB. You can't achieve cyan or magenta by mixing, but red is magenta shifted towards orange, and the RYB blue is cyan shifted towards purple. The yellow is fine though. The difference between using the rules of the two is more in terms of what pigments you buy though than in how you mix them.

[@GamerWolvenna]

@@aquabluerose7734 The color wheels are all basically based on how they treat black. In RYB black is the absence of color because it's based on how light interacts with the world (in RYB white is the combination of all colors). In RGB it's the opposite, because it is based on how physical paint combines. If you mix all of the colors together you get black, while white is the complete absence of color. CMYK black is a separate color (the K) that gets added into the other colors in order to create different hues and values. This is based on how printers handle color when you are printing out artwork. When you're painting, you're automatically using RGB colors because of the way the pigments interact when you apply them to the canvas. It's not based on the pigments you buy because they still follow the same rules of RGB color.

Like, the dark yellow and light purple, I thought that was gross and impossible to make look good. But then you showed the examples and they are beautiful! It's honestly impressive how good you are at utilizing your knowledge.

[@pendlera2959]

It's because "dark yellow" isn't really a thing. Lightness is intrinsic to yellow; you can't darken it without also desaturating it. Darken it enough and it stops being yellow and turns either green or brown. Same with orange. Once a color gets desaturated enough, it harmonizes with everything, just like white, grey, and black. That's why earth tones are also called neutrals.

To clarify a bit on the rgb/ryb/cmyk, NEVER use rgb for paint. Paint is color, and they mix backwards. While all all the colors mixed togeyher is white to rgb, because it's measuring the color of light, paint is measuring the color of objects we see like paints. Cmyk is the dots in old comics where they get printed out. Cmyk is the color scheme printers use to make colors, because it has a wider number of colors it can make compared to rgb or ryb. None of them are 'incorrect'but also not all of them are right for either medium either. Don't Use rgb with physical paints, or vice versa. Hope this helps ✨ EDIT: I am back and edited because this comic started to pick up in popularity and it was badly worded. Thank you for the corrections on cmyk! I'd recommend looking into the comments for a better explanation of cmyk :))

[@GamerWolvenna]

Thank you for posting this! I was scrolling the comments hoping someone had pointed this out. She kept saying CMYK is the "contemporary artists" wheel. Like there's some elitist group of artists out there that only use CMYK because they're too cool for RGB or something. CMYK is for print and the K is important because it stands for Key, and uses black. High quality printers have a separate cartridge for black and different values are achieved by adding black to to the mix of colors. IIRC most digital artists who create for print, still work in RGB and switch to CMYK at the end, so they can do any necessary adjustments before sending it off.

[@leonineKelter]

@@GamerWolvenna yeah, I loved the video but was really confused about why she called it that when cmyk coloring is older than rgb by decades, printing has happened long before digital art. It's anything but contemporary to me. I use it like every day for English assignments, it's hardly contemporary. Also like I said, you should never use it in traditional art because it isn't made for that and she said it like you can if you are some elite ultimate artist or something?? You just don't because paint can't do that lmao.

[@eztak.]

CYMKis also use for printer but not just for it, blue and red aren't actually primary colors, cyan and magenta are, RYB is a limited color palet that can't make every color that was used in traditional Art only because of limitations in the colours they could produce, CYM is a better system for traditional Art as it can make a wider range of colours.

[@mundaneal]

Nah, man, cmy is the new and improved subtractive wheel method for painting. It is not just for printing anymore! You can now mix those splendid colors! You get more saturated mixes when you use this wheel. Have you ever mixed red and blue together and noticed the type of purple you end up with? It is kind of dull…maybe even oddly brownish. This is do to red being a color that nears yellow more than it nears blue. When you use magenta it is closer to blue, therefore you get a lovely purple that is vibrant. Still…if I am honest, I think there should be two parts for each primary. Red leans towards yellow-it is great to make orange-while magenta leans towards blue-great to make purple. With blue, you can get colors like…primary cyan for those brighter greens and ultramarine blue for those lovely duller greens. For yellow, primary is usually better for oranges while something like…cad primrose leans more towards greens.

[@eztak.]

@@mundaneal The weird thing about primary colors, is that anything we come up with is just a approximation, the real primary colors, that you would use to make any other are outside of human color range, but while CMY is not perfect it was the best system we come up with to mix the maximum amount of colors while using three primaries.

one really cool color effect you can do with anything animated is take a polychromatic scheme, and adjust the brightness so all the values are exactly the same, then have each color cycle through the colors of the rainbow at the same offset from each other. It looks really freaking cool.

FINALLY! I've been trying to find good lessons on color theory, and all the ones I found were still beginner level color theory. I actually learned new things in this video!

[@d36williams]

I worked in print, at a newspaper. It's interesting to watch how digital tools and better CMYK mechanisms in graphic software have led to much better print qualities. If you work with Lasers, RGB is thing that makes sense -- you add red light, green light to get yellow, add all 3 to get white -- called Light Additive; in print its CMYK, with K being black. Lasers build images out of darkness, while CMYK builds images on a (usually) white surface, so can be called Light Subtractive; when you put Cyan on white, you are subtracting all other colors from the light reflecting off the canvas. The ink in this case is actually a filter, filtering out other light

[@animanioid]

[@aepokkvulpex]

My art teacher actually talked to me about RGB/RYB once and I looked into it more after that. It's true that RGB/CMYK are the physical ways that color is combined in a technically balanced way, but RYB works not just because it's traditional, we also like psychologically find more harmony in those complements.

[@skitterly]

[@AlicornHana]

[@HadiaaidaHadiaaidaH]

My teacher didn’t teach me anything

[@GamerWolvenna]

There is no contemporary or modern color wheel. The three color wheels are based on different things. The RYB wheel comes from the way light reflects color. In RYB adding all colors together gives you pure white because that's how light works. The RGB wheel comes from the way artists mix paint. Adding together all pigments gives you black, while white is the absence of all color. The CMYK wheel comes from the way printers print color. Printers struggle to create tonal variation with just three colors, so they have a fourth color called "Key." Which is pure black. Printers add black into other colors to create darker values and add less black for lighter values. You only ever use CMYK if you're sending a digital painting off for print, and even then you'll probably work in RGB first and switch at the end. It's important to understand why each of the color wheels. None of them are outdated and none of them are more correct than the others. They all have different uses.

[@eztak.]

@@GamerWolvenna by using RYB you are limiting the range of colours you can have, it is based on outdated colour theory, red and blue are not primary colours, magenta and cyan are, you can't make magenta and cyan. with RYB, but you can make red and blue with CMY.

[@lagiacrusz]

It depends on what HUE. I aswell use purple, though I advise to stay away from warmer tones. Warmer fuchsias or grape colors fit pink, dark clothes but nothing bright and cheery!

[@valle..]

From what I heard, shading is generally done with complementary colors so if you're using purple to shade it means you're light would be yellowish

[@crackle6875]

If you do a lot of color mixing & don’t do digital art, RYB is a good basis to keep in mind* ESPECIALLY when you’re creating your own paint from scratch via non-synthetic items for pigment.** magenta= mix certain ratio of red to a certain ratio of blue (or certain purples - which is already comprised of red & blue - mixed with certain reds) cyan=equal amounts of blue+equal amount of green to create teal, you lighten the teal with either yellow or white to get to cyan. The type of green & blue you used will determine if yellow or white will be more efficient. Experiment a lot, to help you acquire a practical grasp of your chosen medium’s limitations and difficulties when it comes to color. **If you’re making your own paint, the binder can also affect your color’s final look.

[@StarPlatinum7912]

Hi, I don’t know if you have already tried, but procreate can help you find complementary colors with a bunch of different setting! You can choose from complementary, triadic, tetradic, split complementary, and analogous! They show you with an opposite on the other side of the wheel.

[@themontu7066]

No - RGB is a digital color wheel. RBY is pigment based. One's not "contemporary" and the other's "outdated," it's specific to your medium. You're a digital artist, therefore you're concerned with the primary _pixle_ colors (RGB). However, people who use pigment-based mediums (there are a TON of painters still out there) use the RBY color wheel because red, blue, and yellow are the primary colors that do not have other colors in them. You can't mix two or more colors together and get red, yellow, or blue. When you're using pigments, that's important because you want to know what your base colors are, and mix from there. Green, on the other hand, is a combination of yellow and blue, and therefore not a true primary in pigment based mediums. This is important because there's no amount of mixing of blue and red that you can do to get yellow, and therefore you can't get green, either. An RGB primary color wheel is impossible with physical mediums.

I imagine this is very helpful for a lot of people, and it was even educational for someone like me who already knew most of the content. I've definitely used discordance before, but not knowingly; now that I know what it is, I'll be able to apply it more consistently ☺

This is exactly what I've been looking for for a YEAR YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW BADLY I NEEDED THIS IT REVIVED MY DRIVE TO DRAW

[@justsplendacious]

This was great! Thank you so much! I grew up taking a number of art and design classes, so I'm very familiar with the traditional color wheel, values, basic and a couple adv. color schemes, etc., but I'm grateful for the update on color wheels and adv. color schemes. The explanations were super clear, especially with the variety of visuals! ...Which you know...but anyway, great video, thanks!

[@MORGUEMAW]

This was really helpful, i always thought Monochromatic was black and white/greyscale, awesome video!

[@jellydarling1008]

Very cool! I new most but the last one was completely unheard of. Going to play around with it

[@derpy_blue]

it literally feels like a class because of the sound quality, it sounds like a teams meeting 😹 I love the vibe!

[@popcorn_sandwich]

I’ve heard of colour schemes before but you have made them very easy to understand

[@Casuality7070]

Thanks! I was testing these techniques out and they work like a charm!

Tip: on Procreate, the Harmony color chooser helps you with color schemes.

[@thefluffycloud9251]

My art teacher showed one of your videos in class today and your video was in my recommended when I got home which is a cool coincidence

[@boopboop6379]

You explained discordant colour schemes better than my prof did - she said "it's basically just any colours you want!" So confusing. Thanks for this :))

[@noutjeee17noutjepsychic]

I indeed had never heard of most of these :D, only mono & complementary. But now that I learned about these, I cant wait to practice with them! :0 ✨

[@manniskorochdinaproblem8808]

Ok, this just helped me so much, now I have to learn how to use the polychromatic one

[@VioletSmeiska]

This is so good for me to learn right know so I don’t have to worry in the future, thank you so much for taking time out of your day and giving the world your knowledge

[@thatlittlemonstrosity]

as a colorblind """artist""" I put a lot of time in understanding colors and this video is very helpful. I can't really rely on my eyes to choose colors and using the schemes and color combination with some thought to it might make my art better (it's better to use already existing combinations than making my own at my stage of learning). I do believe that color can be the most important thing in the art since it can tell almost everything about the character and the mood. Making characters in a specific color scheme can make them feel like they belong in the same art and thats why I put a lot of time to learn and choose colors

[@mergimergimergi]

I've heard about all of them, just didnt know how they were called. Thank you for the video!

[@beeso4460]

As someone who has NEVER understood color theory... your videos finally made it click. Thank you so much

[@centexasphalt3554]

Why this was actually really helpful! Thank you! !

[@japaneseextremme3811]

One class I regret not taking is a Color Theory class. So this is very nice. My method recently has been to just find color schemes I like and then just eyedrop from those to use as my own. Its a great way for me, slightly color blind, to make sure I have an attractive palette.

[@PersonWhoAsked]

i actually wanted to learn more about colors the other day, so kinda perfect for youtube to recommend this to me

[@alexandrateall5527]

[@novaknavekey]

No no, I’m with you. That red and cyan combo is preetttyy.
