The color theory video that changes EVERYTHING

[@ShariArts]

Great video! I would love a video on Value! It is so important. It has been awhile since art class, but I do remember my teacher, a masterful landscape painter, telling us over and over that "color gets all the glory while value does all the work."

[@Pointebrush]

Yes!! Your teacher was right. value is the foundation of the house. You can’t make it pretty if you don’t have good support! Added to the list!

[@windywednesday4166]

​@Pointebrush Yes... my son was just telling me about taking an image and putting it in black and white (on his tablet) then finding the values on a color wheel that he's turned to Black and White and using that to paint. You end up using all the wrong colors but it 'looks right'. ❤

[@marcusdekker]

value? i dont understand. What do you mean?

[@windywednesday4166]

@marcusdekker Value in art is the lightness or darkness of a color. In black and white, it is called a grayscale with white as the lightest and black as the darkest.

[@marcusdekker]

@@windywednesday4166 Much appreciated, ty

Margot, I would watch you even if you did a video on tractor maintenance! You teach so well, it's making sense in my head now! Thank you.

This was like Blues Clues for artists. So much effort being put into this, I love it!

[@stroodledoodles]

This video was such a fun way to learn about colour temperature, as a visual learner I really appreciate how you showed how different lighting looks in real life :D

[@Pointebrush]

I’m a visual learner too and I always have an easier time seeing it than hearing it! Glad I could help!

[@kgty1295]

This video was really good.

[@k8marlowe]

The time and effort you must have spent making this video is impressive. Top notch quality content for free on KZbin? Seriously, I am impressed.

[@judihussey5889]

You are an artist in SO many areas! As an instructor, an entertainer, an inspiration, and to hear your little one giggle at the end I would also guess as a mom!! You are an artist and a gift! Thank you for your joyful sharing ❤

[@otterwench]

Value video definitely welcome. This video was magnificent.

[@Pointebrush]

So happy you enjoyed it! 😘

[@polgara28]

If you made a video about the phone book, I'd be here for it! Yes please to values and color temps. What a great video! Loved hearing your son's giggles at the end. I bet you all have so much fun! ❤

To answer your question about another video: YES. I WANT ALL THE VIDEOS OF ALL THE THINGZZZZ! Pretty please & thank you! 🙏🏻 ❤

[@MyRedPoppy]

I think you are brilliant. Yes, I hit like on all your episodes because you are fun, imaginative, excellent teacher and of cause, the aim of the game, know how to impart and educate people so they get it. That is a skill a lot of people lack. They just talk but don't engage. Congratulations on your brilliant channel, looking forward to learning more. I purhased the books Petal and The secret life of colour. 🎉❤❤❤❤

Oh my sweet lord. You just popped out on my feed and this is the first video of your's I've ever watched and ... what in the what, why're you so good at this?! I mean, content yes content, but the whole *waves hand*... are you working in actual movies or ad shoots? This is more than just professional, this is ... genius (or maybe genie with all the popping in and out of scenes). 😮👏👏👏❤️ You've got yourself a new fan. 🤩

[@joannrabideau1657]

You’re most welcome!!

Yes please! I need this so much. So mixed up with the warm and cool colours!❤️🦋

[@Pointebrush]

I hope this clarified some things and let me know where your pain point is with everything and maybe I can do a video about that too!

[@annevickers3307]

That lesson was dynamic! What an ingenious way to explain how warmth and coolness works. I have had many lessons on this, and it has been difficult to grasp this concept at times. Thank you for giving me such a concrete way of understanding it. The visualization of the bath and the snow will stick with me forever.

[@Pointebrush]

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

Oh gosh this was a great fun video on Depth & Color Temperatures!! Yes I need a video on your fun explanation for Values too!

Hullo Margot, I can see your flare for the dramatic is alive and well in this video, so much fun! I have taken Alain Picard's class on painting the painterly landscape and he shows how to create thumbnails getting us to block our values and simplify to get started! He is running his portrait course just now and I know everyone who is taking it is awash in value studies and creating a likeness and everything to create a painterly portrait! I did like your video and I hope more follow suit!

Rock on Margot, keep dazzling us with your brilliance, we can only get better, your just brill.

[@kimatlastlooks2915]

Great video! A practical real world example of the Kelvin scale in light is when you go to purchase LED bulbs. How many of us bought ones that turned out to be that harsh white blue when we wanted that natural soft warm light. Most LED bulb manufacturers include the Kelvin scale on the box to help you get the right desired light color.

Margot, this was a great video on warm and cool colors. I love your videos! They are informative, different and refreshing! I would love to see a video on value, which is determined depending on the color we use, and confusing along with tone.
