How to Organize COLORS on your PALETTE

[@zoe999mu]

Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and expertise! Much appreciated. I would love to totally “ feel” the whole chroma/ value/ saturation concept so that it becomes instinctive. You are an amazing artist!

[@davidshimp5116]

Very helpful, practical, clear advice. Thank you!

[@lucytkmts]

This super great. You have solved my problem of being confused with too many colours.

Q: Can you comment on the toxicity of pigments? A: Don't eat them.

Dear Arthur, thank you for sharing this with us. I wonder what's the point of including both Yellow Ochre and Raw Umber. Wouldn't one of them suffice to bring down the chroma and value in for any group of yellows? Same goes for Transparent Red Oxide and Burnt Umber/Alizarin Crimson. I'd assume Alizarin Crimson is there to serve as a cool red, but don't the other two basically serve as darkening agents? I'm also curious about your choice of Vermillion and Led Tin Yellow as opposed to usual Cadmium Reds and Yellows. Would very much appreciate the response. Thank you!

AWESOME LESSON

[@LoveBystroem]

I find it quite hilarious that you have both real Vermilion and flake white. Do you drink terp aswell? Nah I’m kidding but I enjoy hearing your thought process. Very similar to mine in some ways actually, I really like having very specific purpose for each colour. Warm, cool, dark, light

What's the brand of your pallette knife and number Sir?

[@AngeloBonaveraArt]

Having trouble painting scenes with many colors. Do you save mixed colors or remix then as needed when you find out of paper space?

[@ArthurGain]

I do either depending on the task but normally I remix. To deal with trouble you can try to simplify the colors first - by squinting while you look and by reducing the amount of pigments. When you have your value structure established - you can apply more colors on top of it

Can you write all instruments that you use to oil painting? Thanks

[@jeanluc5311]

Very interesting video ty

[@louiswolfe5012]

Can I be sent this pallete pls to try oil paints

[@zebposada]

Arthur, what are your comments on people critiquing so much Alizarin Crimson give it is very fugitive? Do you have arguments towards using it? Many people today have been using permanent madder deep instead.

[@ArthurGain]

about Alizarin lightfastness and possible color fading: it depends on the use and on pigments you mix it with. "...reasonable to assume that alizarin or madder lakes should be used as glazing colors over a properly dried surface. Alizarin or madder lakes will not decompose when mixed with various blacks such as bone black, lamp black and carbon black." --- quote from Natural Pigments website: www.naturalpigments.com/alizarin-crimson-oil-paint.html
