Check out Tori's video here!! Seriously, this lady has just shattered my heart into a million pieces with her kindness: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anKlkGuViZh3pZY

[@Desillustrates]

her video was very beautiful

[@d.dcroozen8992]

I hope you make prints of the second painting you did. I think it's my favorite piece of art that I have seen you makr. Very beautiful!

[@lucak.3365]

I’d love to see this with light pink and a pastel/minty Green

[@taneets1429]

Luca K. I was thinking the same thing! Or a lilac and pastel yellow!

[@andreluizbarbosa9740]

I was going to request that 😂 been loving pink/purple & green together lately

[@chiarouchka1507]

using only pastel colors would make a kind of flat piece but i also would really love to see other color combos for this kind of exercise!

[@lucak.3365]

lo l yeah I see that problem, obviously with vibrant variations of the colors for contrast:) could work I think

[@lucak.3365]

Oh I just saw she actually picked it and my comment was actually seen a lot :) thank you guys I only just now saw

[@StrawberryLegacy]

I don't know when my hobby shifted so much from painting to PAINTS but I don't even see colours anymore, I just see pigments... I saw the thumbnail and immediately went "PO73 and PB28, nice"... and the other day I saw a bird on TV and was like "ohhh his feathers are PB15:3 and PR255, I love it!"... I think I have a problem sjdjskfjjs

[@gemammar1314]

PLEEEEAAASE TRY QUINACRIDONE ROSE AND EMERALD GREEN !!!!!!! Please They kinda neutralize each other with cool undertones

[@arvindshukla8040]

she actually did it! :D

[@juicyink]

Wowowow! I’m just, FLOORED! That was amazing! Guh, all the gorgeous shots of the coloring mixing and walking us through both painting process was a true treat! I love how in both of your pieces, you enable both of the colors to really shine. So much clarity in your washes. And the way you paint with larger brushes 😍😍😍😍 takes my breath away!! Thank you so much for including me in the fun! BIG HUGS!!!!! You’re the real mvp!

[@yaniquehutchinson6314]

I really appreciate that you include the paintings that you are less satisfied with. I think it shows artists that not all creations will be things you love or like. With things like instagram or youtube, generally we only see what people decide are their best works so it makes us feel like they have nothing but things that are worthy of sharing. It's good for artists to see that the reality is very different than what we see on social media. If that makes sense. :> Anyway I want to try this limited color palette too. Looks fun!

[@bentleyangeldekao7768]

Purple and green just generally curious but probably make a good landscape

[@theartist_harlivi]

That second piece is something I would be drawn to in a gallery...love it😍

[@cro.w]

My favourite go-to combo is White Nights' Claret and Indigo. They create this very beautiful dark colour I use instead of black.

[@TSS161]

limited palettes are my favorite kind of painting videos

[@elise2182]

Recently I've loved 'grounding' Cerulean with Burnt Sienna, because it doesn't compromise their vibrancy.

[@madamogee9041]

Both pieces are truly amazing! I prefer the first one a bit more, but the second one has its merits!

[@zeynepturkkan7908]

Rose colors and perylene green mixes are my favorite

[@borkborkie5471]

Yes tired faced color wheel for the win 😂

[@larrymisiak915]

Okay. You're a new artist to me. Your faces are incredible. Love your color discussions. You're someone to learn from!

[@everartokelli]

Great duo, I wouldn't have thought 2 fairly opaque colors would look so luminous. I like to mix DS Cerulean Chromium or (WN Cerulean) with DS Quinacridone Sienna for a soft grey, so will try to use them more extensively and really stretch the boundaries of a two color palette. Looking forward to more color adventures.

[@WaniArman]

I learn a lot about watercolor from your channel. This series will be a great help for me to learn mixing color with limited color.

[@kayrod1496]

I personally love using yellows, from lemon yellow to yellow ochre, in contrast with deeps blues and purples. I like to use the yellows to show to highlights of a person/thing and the purples and blues to show depth. (If that makes any sense)

[@InLiquidColor]

I cant remember if I told you or not, but my sister and I are dying for an eventual Skillshare class from you on lips/mouths. The first time I watched this video I had company over and was only really watching rather than listening, so I thought it was interesting you spoke about that during the second painting!

[@megantravers7303]

a warm yellow and a light/dusty/pastel purple

[@ChristinaTodd1970]

I ❤️ love ❤️ Clementine. It’s one of my favorite pieces you’ve done. So fresh and immediate but powerful and weird. Love!

[@gayathriraja9309]

yellow ochre and payne's gray are some of my favorite paints to use together, it might be a bit of a challenge though as they are very removed from the primaries

[@K_i_t_t_y84]

yellow and gray are such an underrated pair.

[@ellinooralahti8772]

I'd really love to see basic black and yellow together, or maybe yellow and brown? Like a bumblebee or a sunflower!

[@lukasrohde376]

Nickel azo yellow and quinacridone violet (pv19 or quinacridone lilac from white nights is what I use) make some very interesting combinations. They mix glowing, weird brownish colors. Really interesting. Also, these two colors are wonderful together. I hope to use my white nights watercolors more often

[@hannahtooktoo7819]

Hi👋 I just started following you! I have been using acrylic paint for most of my art, and found you while looking for watercolour videos. You're videos have been so helpful and educational for me, as well as relatable. I understand you both verbally and non-verbally through your work. I just wanted to let you know I admire and appreciate your work 😊

[@ladislavsedlak9327]

Though the second one is quite creepy indeed, gotta say that's probably what makes the WOW effect there, I love it

[@BrendaFOBRocks]

omg im going to LOVE this series!! i did around four paintings of a building (the jfk library) with just an orange and a blue watercolor paint - the range you can get from just two shades is so gorgeous!!! i love it

[@saraiiaaa]

Magenta and a deep, cool forest green!! They look so pretty together but i never know how to make them work the way i want to. Would be excited to see what you could do with them! Love how soothing your vids are, and its rad that tori’s doing it too!! 💕

[@scalpfarmer8289]

wow that second painting 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@KRCanetti]

I wish my English were better so that I could express to the fullest how I enjoy this video, the limited palette and your approach.

[@nataliamorenomontano2805]

A zorn palette in watercolor would be so interesting to see 🤔

[@MissShembre]

I love the 2nd piece!

[@curiousrosesart3273]

Love the creepy look to this one with the eyes! And both videos were great

[@serraog4994]

Thanks for helping my art with my just two colors left 🎨😊

[@SosiCreatesArt]

a redish orange and turquoise are one of my fav color combos, yet i rarely ever use them in a painting T-T, i do use them in nearly all my sims house builds tho lol

[@lee_1292]

I’m obsessed with your channel! You’re such a talented artist.

[@user-cz2yx4fj9n]

My favorite color is bright opera 🤩. The mijello one is very pretty, maybe in a future video you can do a color combo containing opera.

[@inkstained]

I adore Tori! She is just the sweetest person and her videos are so relaxing ^^

[@alittlefella985]

gosh I love the second piece a ton!! The gradient shadow on the neck, the harsh dark shadows overall, the concept,.. it's done so well! I love it ❤

[@alejandrarosales7836]

I really like the idea of a dual color limited palette and I really enjoyed the painting and I feel it turned well overall I will add that there are a few places on the painting that feel forced and overworked like on the neck an eye nearest to your painting hand? It was very harmonious too not just color wise but line work and composition wise as well

[@barbhayes5613]

I really love this series of using only two colors! This has inspired to pull out my paints (when I should be Christmas shopping and paying bills...) I really needed something to get me out of a rut, and this is it. Cheers!

[@rebekahdavis8731]

I'm so glad I found your channel, I love the way you speak, your art and your calmness. You really inspire me to do better and not get upset and put off when I mess up or make something I'm unsatisfied with. Thank you for sharing your talent and thought processes with us

[@oliwiabachurska1810]

I love tori and you!! So awesome you did a collab, the video is amazing!! 💖

[@edgybuttmunch2430]

My favorite two colors to paint with are dark warm browns, and cool lime yellow/green

[@ohmybread1546]

I came from Tori’s video, and omfg I’m so excited to watch all your videos 😭🥺I love your art!

[@thepancakerabbitt]

Purple, green, and if you have it, gold. I think it could end up being so pretty and I'd love to see what concepts you'd come up with for them. I love your content, and I hope you keep up the great work ❤

[@_lxufeyscn_]

I have done something like this before and it’s so fun, it shows that having a limited amount of resources in art can still produce a beautiful piece. I’m definitely going to enjoy watching the series.

[@chaosdestructionlove]

I think I prefer the first piece but the focus of the second one looks super fun. I think it'd be really fun to try to do a two colour piece with purple and like a virdian green. I've noticed for years that green and purple make some absolutely stunning greys and neutral tones and I'd love to see a skilled hand take a crack at it.

[@boltlight1244]

This has always been one of my favorite color combinations. Grayish blue with a fiery orange ish scarlet is just wonderful together.

[@aries_chaos]

Love both of these! For sure that second one is me on a Monday morning (especially today). Seriously inspired by your work!! Can't wait to see more.

[@mashed1476]

I'm sold on the idea of 2 colour series! and also i think the second painting is my new favourite piece from you

[@jasmin5246]

Amazing work, Arleesha! Love both artworks! You just inspired me to play with these colors more. Didn't care so much about Cerulean blue before. Your color mixes are simply beautiful!

[@thelinus]

I love this idea! Can't wait to see more of these videos. Also, absolutely in awe of your talent.

[@_Potato_Salad]

After a long day at work dealing with a million annoying customers asking me where their order is, your voice and video's are so soothing. Really loved seeing how just 2 colors can be enough for a great piece ♥

[@KLHFM]

tbh , i want a huge painting w the second pic on my wall! its absolutely incredible

[@amandaclarke-peterson7116]

!! Thank you so much Arleebean for this tip about removing the tape with a heat tool! It’s really frustrating to complete a beautiful piece and try to take off the tape and tear the paper. Super helpful! Thanks!!

[@cassiesmith4826]

Love love love the 2nd one so much.

[@mob_by_night]

Something with the Pēbēo watercolors (Alizarine Crimson and Primary Phthalocyanine Blue specifically) those two are so ughhh nice together, they make a pretty little almost neutral purple and they pair with the Burnt Sienna and the Burnt Umber very nicely. I honestly recommend getting the 12 set of tubes

[@tirameowsu]

aahh I was so excited to see you teasing for this on instagram! you and Tori are my favorite art youtube channels so this collab is such a cool thing! I love the idea of this series and I'm looking forward to seeing what color combinations you end up making art with 💞

[@Agunez93]

I'm so excited for this series!

[@hanahle985]

I got the mijello pure pigment set as my first professional paints and I'm so in love!!! They are so pigmented and vibrant so a little go a long way. Colours made using them are so clean as you said. I can't wait to try this colour combo in one of my paintings ^-^

[@emilyblack5281]

I really love both pieces! Also the color wheel was so cute and would make such a cute sticker!

[@izzysauls7737]

Juicy ink is my favorite artist and you are my favorite watercolor artist! I love that you two are doing a video together!

[@gosiaplummer4794]

I loved the first guy! And each stage of it was beautiful! Those eyes! 😍😍😍I didn’t even start second part!

[@TheImaginaryCat]

I've been really interested in limited palettes lately and this series is going to be amazing!

[@minigul]

I would love to see a limited palette video with Payne's Grey and maybe some kind of creamy yellow! Like yellow ochre? And maybe an added accent of Carmine? Those are essentially my three fave colors ever!! Loved both pieces you did with this palette, especially love the expression on the first one

[@jammie8690]

I love the atmosphere of your second painting, and I’m happy to see you revisit your Paul Rubens!! Loved the video :)

[@greenasmr001]

I think an alizarian crimson and a phthalo green of some sort would look lovely together

[@ocrionbunny4543]

Wow! I love love love that second painting so much

[@minnalillian2774]

One of my favorite color palettes - rich green gold PY 129( the more deep yellowy kind like from daniel smith) phthalo turquoise, then quin coral and/or quin magenta

[@christineingram55]

It’s interesting seeing what you can do with just two colours..love both of thes ..Hers was fabulous too 😀

[@phedran]

Love the second piece particularly, the vibrancy of colour makes it seem so luminescent! Watching your journey feels like slowly giving myself permission to create freely, without judgement.

[@abigailstaten129]

This is my favorite painting by you! It’s so different from your others I just love it💗💖💕💞

[@gwenlynn7261]

I love this new series I'm obsessed with anything color 😍 I especially like that this is not a primary based limited pallet, because they can get very samey .... I actually have private project based on huevember where I experiment with a limited pallet and the cobalt teal plus pyroll red is so nice ( very similar to cerual plus cad red) Some of my favorite combinations are diox purple+viridian , yellow ochre + bordauxe (or quin violet) and cad orange / transp orange + white nights dark green ( I think pg8?) I love when one is transparent and the other opaque or granulating you get so interesting effects 😍 Oh and I actually really like the second painting! Little creepy

[@gwenlynn7261]

Ohhh and!!! That series would actually really nicely fit as as a collab series where eg Denise picks 2 colors and so because Tori and you together was fun so maybe there can be more 😄😄 wow I'm really hyped now for future episodes of this I'm excited for what's next

[@msellenandrea]

I love the second one, such an excellent concept :D I also love exploring limited palettes (And have even been thinking of doing this for my patreon). One of my favorite duos is perylene green and quin magenta (PR122). They neutralise each other perfectly and makes a black, with lots of gorgeous purples in between.

[@denhicool]

Omg, i really love the second one 😍 new subscriber!!

[@norina.s]

I was literally binge watching all your vids!

[@Moonchiild000]

I absolutely love the second piece! I would love to see a warm purple and gold!

[@delilahrodriguez2073]

I would love to see an old school red and blue

[@Shesvii]

What an amazing colour combination. And gorgeous pieces. I love them both! The second one is super unique and the highlights on the lips actually look good. Some colour combinations I love: • Quin gold + perylene violet • Indanthrene blue + perylene green + perylene violet • Gamboge + dioxacine violet • Perylene green + vermillon (Sennelier) • English red + indigo • Caput mortuum + phthalo greem

[@terramorgason25]

quinacridone rose and naples yellow!! 💖💛

[@Ilovecomputergirl]

thankyou for giving us such a cool vid, you and tori are so talented!! i would really like to see a yellow and purple combination, i wonder if that would be a bit of a challenge. I literally screamed in the middle of my theatre class when I saw that you uploaded lolll

[@sleepyyghostt]

aah im in LOVE with the creepiness of the second one!! honstly both of these are just incredible.... i think i wanna try joining in on the limited colour thing !

[@tracyhickman1359]

Thank you for the tip about heating up the tape!

[@MaeBelleArt]

Brilliant! Very Much enjoyed the show. Hope you take it to other places for more people to see. Thank you!

[@violet_9464]

Everything about this video is so relaxing, absolutely love it. You’re bloody incredible I’m so in love ❤️

[@mikayuki9838]

This video is awesome!!! As always ! And I would like to see you painting with payne s grey and madder lake deep!!!

[@itsteganyay]

I really enjoyed this video and will be off to see Tori's in just a sec! It's wonderful that you are both collaborating, and I am a huge fan of limited palette videos! For color combos, I never see anyone doing paintings with purple and yellow. From my own experience they are the complimentary colors that generally make the least pleasant neutrals, but I found recently that I really like the look of Sennelier's Red Violet (PV16) mixed with Nickel Titanate Yellow by Daniel Smith (PY53). Red Violet is hard to use in mass tone because it has a lot of binder, but the granulation is lovely when you dilute it. You may not be able to get a wide range of values, but I think any piece made with this palette would have a very cheery feel to it :)

[@benamisai-kham5892]

purple and yellow!!!! or lavender and a spring green!

[@kristyphillips547]

Fantastic idea and great video! I've just discovered the joys of Prussian Green and Quinacridone Magenta paired together. They're stellar!

[@MeowMeowKapow]

Hooray! Arlee+Tori art babies! Mazel tov, you two crazy kids. =>.

[@vladdoodles]

You should try a neon green and earthy purple.

[@amiwyman2505]

Quin gold, quin magenta, and paynes gray Lunar blue, rose of ultrmarine, and nickle azo yellow

[@panbeing]

I love the second piece so much, especially because it was unsettling

[@evenmegan]

My absolute favourite colour combi is purple + orange, and for a third option a light blue

[@elvie2230]

Oh my gods I've only just recently found you and your art is beautiful. The way you mix colours and how it's realistic but not quite is something I really want to try and seeing it done so satisfyingly is inspiring. I'd love to see a yellow and green combination. 💛💚

[@BiggerinRealLife]

inkandheadphones she has videos on Skillshare where she teaches he techniques for multicolored skin.

[@elvie2230]

@@BiggerinRealLife Ooooo that's so cool thankyou! Though I probably don't have enough money for skillshare. 💙

[@averyartisticraccoon3007]

Those are both great! And I’ve never heard of tori (sp) I will go check her out now!

[@Schesso]

Thank you so much for your videos! I'm trying to learn how to watercolor so they are really helpful to me. I followed you on Skillshare and went ahead and subscribed to you on your Patreon. Looking forward to learning!

[@delilahrodriguez2073]

My favorite pair of colors ❤️

[@ema1027]

My favorite color combination has been chartreuse and royal purple since I was a child, but they can be challenging to put together; by all means try it for yourself.
