How to create the perfect painting course
Learn how the Munsell colour system / wheel works, how hue, value and chroma are represented in 3 dimensions to give us a standard system of naming our colors.

Thank you very much. This video has helped my studying for my Colour Chemistry examination.

[@ericbombardier]

Thanks for the video. Way better explanation than my online course.

Please don't forget to like the video, also leave your feedback on the video. Feel free to ask any questions about the Munsell colour system or using the Munsell colour wheel in your painting and I'll do my best to answer them

Thanks Thanks Thanks!!! That will help me on my visual arts exam this wednesday :)

Nowheregirl88 I think more elaboration could have made big difference.. surely it's nice but need more visualization..

[@dashinglight800]

thank you so much

Sounds like you say "7 step in between" in the video at 2.00. Thanks for the video.

lol, and indeed I do

I am looking to work on the theory that different hues have different strengths and so should occupy more or less space around the wheel, whilst still being split into the 10 hue factions. Mixing paint colours can be scientifically and mathematically calculated in this way. This theory must also apply to the colours of light eg. Blue is a dominant atmospheric colour in a landscape due to refraction through water molecules in the atmosphere. Another theory would be to include the existing hue portion numbers 1-10 into an algebraic equation based upon a percentage of strength or weekness of each colour hue, value and saturation. Do you know if anyone has already done this or not?

only the Munsell system as far I know, you can see this represented on the Wikipedia page : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munsell_color_system

Why did Munsell think that the color wheel should include red-purple and blue-purple? Purple is already red-blue.

[@PaintBasket]

black, white plus 9 steps in between = 11

[@tanuki505]

2.00 with 9 steps in between. The Munsell system has 11 total values.

Black and White? - is this guy really from South Africa?

[@PaintBasket]

I was born in SA yes

[@trapez77]

Why did Munsell think that the color wheel should include red-purple and blue-purple? Purple is already red-blue.

[@PaintBasket]

the one is a warm colour and the other is a cold colour

[@trapez77]

I know that, but why isn’t red-orange and yellow-orange, or green-cyan and blue-cyan included?
