An Artist's Guide to Colour Schemes

[@shadowstarr7]

You've really brought the color wheel to life. Sure, you read about using color schemes but seeing the usage in action - especially at the end with the 4 examples, truly brings on that "Aha!" moment. Thank you!

[@Quillworth]

Yep, this was huge for me. I'm self-taught and have struggled with this for years.

[@DavidWilson-me6bs]

This is a great tutorial. What I found the most impacting area was after describing the colour schemes you then used them in thumbnail examples with a reference picture...WHAM! This gave the descriptions meaning. Thank you so much.

[@RubystarMakeup]

This is wonderful!!! I’m in the very early stages of choosing a colour scheme for a painting and this video is so so useful

[@cshula1]

I understand the color wheel much better now. Thank you. Great lesson!!

[@burnettsuzuki]

So glad to find it. The practical applications of color schemes are really helpful and are easily understood to try.

[@marcuskwek4500]

Thanks for putting so much effort into this video. I love the colour wheel now!

[@janey2562]

A very helpful video. I'm so lucky to have come to this channel.The best color scheme video I've ever watched.

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

+Sharon Pate-Martin let us know how get on Sharon

[@sarahconroy3634]

Wow! This really helped me understand the split complementary scheme. Thank you. Mary

[@mrs.s8855]

Thank you for this tutorial. It's helping me understand color schemes.

[@believer1338]

love it. best way to describe without making it complicated Thamks a lot

[@tasha5246]

What medium are you using? Open acrylic? Your paint is staying moist so long, yet you’re rinsing your brush in water…. Great video. Thank you so much!

[@dotimbro553]

I really enjoyed this . Color theory is hard for me as i am very new at this and i don't do a lot. But the examples put it all together for me. Thank you very much.

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

Wow. We are happy that we helped you in this way Dot.

[@primetime0104]

Very good video. Thank you so much

[@LolaBeM3]

Thank you for sharing. Very helpful.

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

You are always welcome Lola.

[@Quillworth]

Thank you so much for this. What paints are you using?

[@kashkashikas]

Great video and v helpful! I wanted to know, what palette did you use for the acrylics? it looks like paper. I used thick paper as a use and throw palette but my colors dried v quickly on it. Your paints did not dry without a retarder (i'm guessing). please advice!

[@chrrissss]

What a great tutorial.. thanks

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

You are always welcome. Have a nice day. [Emmalyn]

[@cindylong2782]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@rezahosseinzadehnasser993]

Very helpful indeed. One question I have: Is it possible to mix the colors of the scheme as well? If so then new colors will be produced which will negate the using of color scheme. Thanks anyway for your detailed explanation of how to use color scheme.

[@elsagrace3893]

Reza Hossein yes, he begins mixing the colors on the second demo. No, it does not negate the color scheme. Have you ever painted?

[@taur611]

Great Video. Thank you!

[@kirans966]

Amazing info. Thq very much

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

+Kiran S glad you liked it

[@anujdebnath260]

What Medium have you used to color this?

[@aliaa8581]

I love ur vids

[@TheZacLuthor]

Why are blue, cyan, and magenta part an analogous color scheme? They are not directly next to each other.

[@shadowstarr7]

Will this video be added to Art Tutor's website as a class? I have been a member since the beginning (dlWood), and I never saw this video before. If it is, where did John get that particular color wheel. I have seen many, but not one exactly like the one he uses here. I like how it shows the Hues, Tints, Tones and Shades. Great video!

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

Yes, we'll add it to ArtTutor this week. It was created for our social media channels as it's shorter than our typical classes being just one 18min video... but it's worth having on the class list nonetheless. John created that colour wheel and you'll be able to download from the class materials on Monday

[@shadowstarr7]

I will be looking for the video Monday! Art Tutor is the best!

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

Just added it now for you :)

[@shadowstarr7]

Just watched it again, just printed off the Color Wheel of the Galaxy, just am tickled pink! I am very excited because I printed it on my glossy photo paper and just happened to lay it down next to my Munsell color chart that I printed out of an M. Kessler book and from Handprint and caught my breath - OMG!!! John's color wheel and Munsell's (both styles) are spot on together! Yet John's shows me Hue and 3 steps of lightening and darkening which is a great help at a glance. Thanks!

[@jwalzer]

Is there a link to the class? Thx

[@ghy518]

well done

[@aimeemay6019]

this is so fckn awesome

[@nelidagarcia7412]

What type of paint are you using? Great video!

[@elsagrace3893]

Nelida Garcia what kind of paint are you using? AMERICAN much?

[@ajbtllr1530]

elsa Grace I don’t see why you’d complain sarcastically 😂 Like...so what ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they’re just asking about the paints, I’m sure the paints used are Oil Paints.

[@nelidagarcia7412]

I got it that the question was not so smart but it really had nothing to do with being American or anything else. I honestly think I was commenting on a different video and by mistake placed it here. Oh well.

[@ColleenReynoldsArtCRBEndeavors]

May I show this video to my college art class?

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

Sure thing Colleen :)
