Darken yellow acrylic paint. Painting with acrylics for beginners

Getting the right colour can be so difficult and frustrating, but your clear guidance helps me a lot! Very much appreciated, Toon!

[@toon-nagtegaal]

That’s great!👏🏻👍

Thank you for your silly yet logical teaching of colors. Having the focus color in the middle and on each side a different shade or tone, has really helped me to grasp the variations of "tones". I've learned, ( relearning), so much. I also am thankful for your pop-ups with definitions or examples of the moment 's color theory. I apologize for any grammatical errors, I'm still relearning everything since a horrific car accident I was in a few years ago. Have a wonderful day.

You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful. I wish you a good recovery and enjoy painting! 🎨❤

Thank you! I agree with the person just below my comment....."difficult and frustrating"...you are a good teacher!

[@toon-nagtegaal]

Thanks! I know the feeling, because I found it frustrating myself. Until I learned the logic behind all of this. There are two things needed: a basic understanding of color mixing and (at least equally important) training observation. As soon as you better know what you see, it's way easier to get to that color. And luckily these are things most of us can easily train and it's fun as well! 👍

Thanks for this! Colour mixing is my nemesis

[@toon-nagtegaal]

You're welcome!👍

Wow I like the way your easily teach the color mix…. Thanks a lot.

My pleasure, I’m glad it was helpful👍

I'd intuitively say that getting darker warmer yellows would be by mixing it with burnt umber, which is something we might have.

[@toon-nagtegaal]

Yes of course, that's also a great one! 👍👍

[@soarpurpose]

I don't like colours mixed with black, especially yellow.

[@toon-nagtegaal]

😂luckily there are other ways to darken yellow. But I have to say that a muted and/or darkened color out of context often look 'ugly'. The same color can look completely normal when seen in context of the surrounding colors.👍🎨

@@toon-nagtegaal I watched a few of your other videos. I liked that you pointed out and demonstrated is more than one way to get a colour.

[@yuriination]

WONDERFUL explanation! Understanding which colors are warm or cool really helps too.

[@toon-nagtegaal]

Thanks, and you're right, that's a good way to look at colors as well!👍
