Color Wheel in Pointillism

[@ollie54able]

Finally someone demonstrates and explains pointillism clearly and accurately. Muy bueno.

[@mannysschoolofart]

My pleasure. Please let me know if there is something else you would like to see.

[@jobrown8146]

Thank you. This made perfect sense. I was glad that I was able to speed the video up!

[@mannysschoolofart]

Glad I could help!

"Whichever primary colour is left out is the complementary " - so simple! Thank you 😊

[@b.comeau2597]

Wow! I’ve painted for years and love the idea of pointillism but this simple exercise helped me to better visualize how to create these colors since I tend to use many premixed colors ….this is so helpful! Thank you!

[@mannysschoolofart]

It's my pleasure. I've been doing this exercise with my students for years and it really helps them understand color mixing proportions that can later be used when mixing colors traditionally.

My teen art class is doing this exact same project…your video is so helpful! New subscriber here😀

[@mannysschoolofart]

So glad you found the video useful. Thank you

[@t.v.4551]

This is exactly what I was looking for. I’m so thankful for your video.

[@mannysschoolofart]

So glad I could be of service. Thanks so much for tuning in!

Thanks very much for your clear explanations for this technique ! I try by myself using acrylic paint and will see. Merci

[@mannysschoolofart]

Glad I could help. This works really well with acrylics and other paints, I just found it easier to explain with markers before moving on to paints. Please let me know how your painting turns out.

Great demo. If the technique.

[@mannysschoolofart]

Thank you so much.

[@susanblackburn5641]

Really nicely explained! Thank you

[@mannysschoolofart]

Thank you. That's one of my biggest goals is to explain things in ways that makes sense, but without getting to technical.

[@nileemascreation9847]

[@Pbjvlogs8245]

You did a great work

[@Beeaertee]

Nice work.

[@aolmonkey]

Ty now i have a better understanding of it

[@SophieBird07]

This is great. But how do I get greys or black without adding black? Also, this seems next to impossible to do with even when a tiny watercolor brush. But perhaps this is why Seurat did much larger paintings than some! Still, I’m going to try this. Thank you! It will be fun nonetheless.

[@mannysschoolofart]

If you are doing this with markers you can create a dark color (not black) by using all three colors with the dots super close together. You can't make grey because grey has white in it, but you can use a grey marker if you need to. If you are working with paints you can add black and white to your palette. If you are using paints you do not have to use the bristles of the brush. You can either use the handle of the brush to create your dots or you can use q-tips. They also sell this micro foam brushes and they work pretty well. Testor # 281213. I hope this helps.

[@GulzarAhmad-sw1kh]

Each time you use a pencil of different color, its tip is masked by the color already present.

[@marcosignorelli7075]

Great!
