Thank you Yong, I have learnt more from watching two of your video's than I have in the past 50 other video's that I have watched from other people on youtube. I loved your colour mixing video, by using this video I can save a fortune on buying paints, just buy the three primary colours... Really appreciate it, thanks

[@SillyMe048]

Thank you for making this video. This was helpful! How do you mix color for skin tones?

[@YongChen]

+Jessica Quach With this mixing color system with the limited color palette, it makes the painting process simple. Most skin-tones are mixed from all three primary colors, but Red is lot more than Blue and Yellow. Thanks for your feedback.

[@sonhoang-sq9fw]

Thank you.

[@halfabee]

Reading the comments below interesting with some very self appiniated comments. My choice is to use two red warm and cold, Two blues warm and cold finally 2 yellows warm and cold. Depending on the warmth of my colour mixing result I chose accordingly. My 3 (6) primary colours are :- Primary Yellow, Permanent Yellow Deep, Spectrum Red, Primary Red, Primary Blue and Ultramarine. Works for me. Stole this from a Winsor Newton video.

[@soongloege3241]

Thank you.👍👍👍👍

[@viktorolar2392]

Thank you for your videos ,it is very useful. What kind of yellow color do you use? I can read Prussian Blue , Winsor Red and Winsor Yellow . Thank you!

[@YongChen]

Yes, correct. They are Winsor & Newton brand, so if you need detail information of these three primary paints, you can read more about them on the website from the links on this enjoyingart.com/materials/

Focus on what you want, then you will look for the color on your palette, and less confused. Follow my videos as I described why and what I need at each step. Thanks for your comment.

[@rolandherrera506]

good clip, but blue to red looks like mud

[@gloriamcleod9756]

it still looks violet to me, maybe your screen resolution is bad maybe

[@YongChen]

Roland, the video was taken in a bit low-light. This video is more about sharing a theory, it is the foundation of a painting system. I encourage everyone to share their experience. Thank you for your comments.
