Thank you for sharing this important info on shadows and making them interesting! I never thought of shadows as being more than just gray or dark areas until now. You help me “see”!

[@learntopaintwatercolor]

You are so welcome!

Perylene Violet is my favourite for tree shadows.

Matt, I heard you say this kind of before and I'm so excited that I actually did what you're telling. Thank you again for the lesson!!

Unbelievably handy tip. 🥰as a beginner, I was doing grey shadows. I painted a ball with blue and green shadows while I watched your video. Game changer ❤️thank you so much.

Loved this!!

[@nickyrollingsart]

I've been trying to apply your landscape painting advice in general to my work - it's definitely been helping with loosening up, but I had not considered when to use warm v cool in shadows, I'll have to test it out in the future! Maybe it's just the Australian summer but I definitely struggle to connect the shadows up because I find things tend to dry so quickly.

Valuable points. Thank you.

Molte grazie per questo interessantissimo video! Io spesso uso una specie di grisaglia per le ombre, dove la compresenza di colori complementari mescolati sulla carta e non sulla tavolozza crea un bell'effetto, naturalmente tenendo conto dei colori che devono riflettere quelli provenienti dall'ambiente. Grazie!!!
