How To Simplify Your Colors And Values For Beautiful Landscape Paintings

You are a most generous teacher!

thank you

Finally, I get how to use temperature. Thank you for clarifying how to simplify paintings, I’m pushing my painting to be less tight and less overworked. This helps so much.

Great to hear, glad it was helpful

Your comparisons of grey-tone and colour versions of the (beautiful) paintings were very useful and your tonal simplification of the still-life was the 'icing on the cake'. The last example, showing the difference between the effect of cool/warm colour versus their values on the wall and the grass of the church, was an eye-opener. I replayed those few seconds of the grey-tone and colour versions over and over as I would have sworn that the grass was a much higher value originally. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I struggle with discerning the 'value' and 'temperature' concepts of colours for a while but I think this video has given me an 'ah-ha!' moment. Thanks again.

thankyou Phil such good information - so good you showed us the values then the colours

Glad it was helpful!

This was excellent. Thank you for your pointers. Amazing values, colours, half tone - things we unconsciously see without maybe taking another minute to be more deliberate. Love the vids.

Glad it was helpful!

Good one Phil; your examples really drive home the main points in this video. Just when I think your last vid was the best so far you keep coming up with an even better one. Those paintings were amazing, BTW; and they really illustrate the lesson you were emphasizing regarding values and color temperature!! : )
