If your videos were used in schools, the kids would actually learn something. These are simple, SO easy to learn, and you learn ALOT from these videos. Thank you so much.

[@koreyaverill3766]

I'm an art teacher, and I am using them!

[@pancakesareawesome3121]

In actuality, I got here because my teachers used his videos

[@rcmpoffdayintah4738]

​@@koreyaverill3766 sounds like some kids are "actually" learning something after all 🙄

Middle school Art teacher with really 'squirrely' kids...taking over for the retired art teacher & towards end of year...this video is one of the best I've ever used...thanks so much!!

[@supratiksarkar1195]

Who will pay the teachers? These videos take a lot of time to make.

[@sdmproduction07]

I hope our school classes of other subjects should have this much funny

[@thedrake5072]

Thank you for this. This made the whole topic of colouring a whole lot less scary to me. Now... If you could do a video on shading... maybe... Whatever you do, Very good video. Have a great day.

[@KlassikTP]

I have been struggling with shading for a few months now. Pretty sure it will be handy

[@MzShon84]

Great idea. Definitely interested in shading.

[@michellinapierrenaregianna97]

Shading please!

[@AmritaSingh-is7lh]

I would say for shading wherever there is overlapping make it a little dark like a shadow hope you understand.

[@shanggosteen9804]

I love your emphasis on creativity. Art school's usually restrain your options for what style looks nice, what color palette fits well, what is this characters emotion? I love that you encourage experimentation. Art schools should let people find whats right for them instead of limiting their options

[@doodette6591]

Been an artist for more than 10 years, I still go back to the basics every time. Brad helps me so much! My motto as an artist is "Stick to the Basics"

[@Vall_Ey]

The explanation is so clear, made it so easy to understand, usually tutorial like this use complex terms, with fast talk, and almost like alien words, so stupid person like me will get confused or even fall asleep.

[@szczypcia]

Brad, OMG. This whole school idea is simply fantastic! Your art style, animation, knowledge and ability to get all this precious info through to other people is incredible. I'm from Poland and honestly, if only our kids had your videos dubbed into Polish, they could benefit soooooo much! As for now, I recommend your films to the ones who know English pretty well as there is a lot of foreign language stuff going on in your videos. Thank you for posting all of this :) We really appreciate it :)

[@hridaymenon]

It is just incredible to know that Brad is doing all this for free!!! Thanx Brad. 🙏

[@JakeMorgan-ef2zf]

After 50 billion of hours on KZbin, I can not believe how much I have learn with just one video. You are amazing and top class teacher!

[@flaccidacid6819]

this guys videos are a god send. every other art teacher on youtube is so pretentious and has no clue how to actually break down how to do these basics. they NEED to be dumbed down. thank you so much brad. i've learned more today watching all your videos than i ever had in all the years of trying to find help in other creators that say things along the lines of "don't draw what you see draw what you feel". thank you for actually knowing how to teach people.

[@Chris-Dodge]

Never thought saturation and contrast played a part as well. Learned something new.

[@samuelcampos497]

This channel is a treasure. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos with so much dedication. The quality of content, video, animation, storytelling… all is amazing!!

[@corwin32]

[@lolomanolo111]

i love how i came from not even being able to draw a little tree, to making somewhat good looking heads in just a day, this tutorial are really amazing

[@GonselFly]

I have never learned color theory the way I learned from you, Sir Brad. You're awesome. Please continue doing more.

[@GooberThe4th]

Hey! A little bit of info to add to this video is that red and blue aren’t true primary colors, magenta cyan and yellow are, it may seem weird but think about it, yellow and magenta make red and cyan and magenta make blue! Printers can print the color red, blue and almost all other colors but the inks they use are C M Y K Cyan Magenta Yellow and Black (Don’t ask me why black=k)

[@GooberThe4th]

Also CMYK gives more vibrant colors in art (unless it’s glass art or some other type of light art then it will make white) try making a vibrant purple or green, then compare it to the same but using CMYK! It looks much better in my opinion!

[@GonselFly]

Nice trivia. Thanks.

[@littleravendesigns5587]

Wow this is one of the best explanations of color theory I’ve seen. It’s basic but to the point and not over done.

[@johnathonroman8467]

Thank you for this, I just started with digital art and have been watching all your videos and advising my kids to do the same, they're all trying to do digital art

[@AA-rr9ly]

this was the most helpful video of the color wheel ever!! other videos just make things too complicated and mention too many jargon without explaining anything. thank you for this!!!

[@theirishman088]

im 42 and took art all through school and a couple classes in college and this was really fun. Im getting back into drawing and your video was very creative and fun to watch and i picked up some new ideas i forgot about and didn't know. thanks!

[@Bhavana_Bora]

One of the greatest teacher in art 🖌️

[@nicksaffels5281]

Wow just found this channel but I absolutely love it. I’ve been into art seriously for about 4 years. I’m no professional by all means but I know my way around art, and seeing this type of content puts a smile on my face. You make it so fun and simple for beginners to learn the fundamentals the right way. Can’t wait for this channel to blow up

[@reenapant6430]

This is by far the most entertaining yet the MOST INFORMATIVE AND HELPFUL art channel on yt... literally saved my art grade ❤️✨

[@sushmabagla5927]

Loved the way you are explaining so deeply about colours

[@glacousxx]

Hey brad I don't know if you'll read this but youve helped myvart immensely and the recommendations for apps have helped my animation as well. Thank you for this simple yet informative video.

[@nadinepitzer]

I loved every minute of this! The humor, graphics and information were perfectly weaved together to create an amazing learning experience. Thank you for the time and effort poured into this.

[@niki714niki]

Wow. You make things so simple and easy to understand and yet add so much more detail than I thought I knew about the color wheel. I appreciate you taking the time to do these videos!

My man is finally back, I humbly accept this awesome video to learn from!

[@Generational_Wealth]

How did I not know that you had another channel? 😍 KZbin recommendations FINALLY got something right! Subbed!

[@in___aaa]

i really love how brad explain about how we can use the contrast of saturated color to stand out, usually tutorials i saw don't recommend to use saturated colors at all and that makes me really sad. my art uses saturated colours, yet i always receive compliments about how i color or my pallettes. seeing tutorials which don't recommend them at all makes me think that my art is wrong and not good.

[@atharva350]

the world needs you brad sirrrrrr

[@axentric]

Out of everything I have read on color, your simplification of it was perfect and made the most sense. Thank you. 💖

[@arthobbyist.]

I love how you put soo much efforts with the animations! So entertaining & at the same time, very helpful! Thanking you! 😊

[@samyaks.h1990]

Thanks for this guide. I got to know so much more about colours and now I can apply this to my drawings

GREAT VIDEO. This was the video I was looking for! Thanks for sharing!

[@SuperShammy]

Just had to do a color research project for one of my college design classes and this video is literally the info they gave us. So congrats everyone, you just learned what I did but faster, for free, and far more entertainingly! THANKS BRAD!

[@Aspeneves]

How did I not find this before!?!? I'm showing this to my class, this is a great supplement to my lessons!

[@nunuallen4327]

This is so good, the vocabulary of it all-value, hue, color, saturation, the artist terms that no one really, really explains. I do have to go over it again though, maybe write it down to review it again because I did get a tiny bit confused then I was drawn back in, if anyone understands what I mean. So yeah this was awesome.

[@Unmie]

I'm starting to watch more of these videos and I would really like to have a full class learning from Mr.Brad then any other subject.

[@Kumar-jc3bu]

What an illustration bro, your video is a must for not only artists but for all. God bless you. Grow to the top.

[@userCB3yx2wr3h]

"And stop talking to yourself, ladies will think you are weird " was not something I was ready for in an art class haha 😭😭These videos are so cool man. You would have done well here with much less effort and humor but you still made them cool. respect for that!!!

[@unlaikable]

0:22 Thanks for reminding me too, Mama Brad

[@Strawberrihead]

That 64 crayon box is always so nostalgic 😢 thankfully I come from a creative family, and my parents (mom the artist, especially) have always encouraged us to express ourselves and experiment with different art mediums. Art was always my favorite part of school, but I decided not to pursue it as a career because a) I'm V lazy and b) art on a deadline is very daunting and stressful to think about. I'm definitely a hobbiest, but a little art 101 is always appreciated!

[@OddlyAnimated1203]

This is an AMAZING video! I never understood colour theory until now. I will recommend this to any artist who wants to understand colour theory.

[@bop78]

I just want to say- Thank you sooo much for creating your videos! I learned and understood soo much about color theory in this one. I used to be confused with it before, and being a starting artist- you make life easier and brighter. Thank you so so much!

[@Cre-Art]

Excellent. Clearly explains the differences between hue, saturation and value, which confuses a lot of people-not just kids. Nicely done.

[@mr.preston1632]

This is great in general if you are a modeler, pixel artist, etc this is already super useful

[@PCilla123]

BROOO YOU ARE A GENIUS USING THE COLOR WHEEL LIKE YOU DID!! IT MADE SOOO MUCH SENSE TO ME YOOO!!!
