How WU SIH SHIAN Uses Fascinating Colors

[@buddhathegod]

The way he uses lighting, shape and colors has always been so mesmerizing to me. I don't understand much of fundamental art theory, so it's very appreciated to hear you talk about to maybe give me some insights about what it could be about his style that I find fascinating.

Thanks for introducing to amazing amazing artist and his lovely artwork!I am so excited, lost for words,I wish I would have a guru(teacher) like him where you learn watercolor painting 🙏🙏🙏

Great video! Paul Pitsker would be a good candidate for this series, with his unique take on realism. His paintings deal with themes of empathy, anxiety, grief, wistfulness, and nostalgia.

Hey Liron, haven’t watched in so long. I dropped painting for a while due to work, school, and creative burnout. But I’m back and ready to grind it out. Thanks for continuing your passion. It inspired me to do the same, bro!

I think one of the reasons Wu Sih Shian’s color schemes work is because he deals with a lot of near complimentary colors. Take the painting at 8:08 for example. The building is a slightly muted red-purple. On the roof is yellow which is a complimentary color to the purple in the building. Then under the building you have bold greens, the complimentary color to the red in the building. Then even lower, the bikers are an orange-ish yellow which compliments the purple-blue shadows. There’s just a lot of colors that play off each other, enhance each other, and make your eyes dance around the canvas. It’s so well done.

I love how you break down these paintings and show the magic that is part of watercolor. Your videos are so inspiring. Thanks so much for taking the time to post them. Have a blessed day!

The energies in those paintings are exciting. I love the interesting cars, too, and the use and placement of all of those greens and blues. Very cool!

Fantastic works

What I like about Shians work and I don't think you mentioned is the intermix of the contrast of warms and cools. All the interesting greens and blues are always contrasted by a warm. If he paints a orange jacket or backpack he wraps the color in cools. Just my extra take anyway. Reminds me of Thomas Schaller in that regard. Very different work but that same constant switching warm cool warm cool. Then he does something a bit more playful with the yellowy warmish greens, and almost cool pinks. He is a master of analogous colors for sure. Your pointing out his blue street light is spot on. :)

Another watercolor Artist with the same style and brilliance, is Titus Meeuws from Netherlands

[@LironYan]

I love his work (:

[@davidschonberger8609]

Yes, he is from Taipei, Taiwan.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Wu Sih Shian may be partially colorblind, and is improvising accordingly. Many people that have seen my paintings point out the colors I use...Im partially colorblind as well. Where there's a will, there's a way.

The bright pastel colors convey a positive emotion in his work. I like it too. I have some yellow in a teal rug in my office and can see one of his paintings looking great on the wall.
