Great job explaining the earth colors, now one question Master Jason, what do we need to be do or be careful with, when painting cooper tone items, because sometimes they look like more like terracota clay than cooper metal ones

[@walcottfineart5088]

Thanks for watching and great question! The key to depicting copper is in using the correct value placement, reflections and highlights.

It’s amazing how different the hie of the various burnt and raw siennas are between different brands. I find many burnt siennas are too red and most raw siennas are too yellow.

[@walcottfineart5088]

Yes that is true! It depends on the pigment source and which shade the paint maker decides to use. That's why so many artists often don't stick with one brand. They'll buy the particular colors they like from a bunch of different brands. For example my favorite Yellow Ochre is the one from Rembrandt, but my favorite Raw Umber is Vasari's.

Burnt sienna is a dark dull orange belonging to the orange family, transparent and good for glazing, mixed with white it makes good flesh tones, it comes from Raw sienna which is less commonly used, darker and duller than Yellow ochre, more bluey, similar to Yellow ochre and you can choose one or the other. Raw umber (warm) is dull but has a warmth to it, Raw umber (cool) is greyer. Burnt umber is more transparent, more warm and brown and great for landscapes when mixing blue and greens and painting brass and gold. Yellow ochre, Burnt sienna and Burnt umber are the most common earth colours. Transparent oxide brown is an alternative and warmer than the Burnt umber. (Red ochre, Terra Rosa or Venetian red) makes great flesh tones and salmon colours.

[@arammagied3266]

Thank you

[@M4th3u54ndr4d3]

Fun fact: Raw Umber comes from Umbria in Italy. The name that it was called initially was Burnt Umbra or Terre d'ombra, but was mispelled as Burnt Umber. BUT... it is not actually worng to call it burnt umber, because Umbria came from latin Ombre, which means "shadow". I think "umber" in english also means "shadow", right?

In Arabic the word umber ( عنبر ) is the same name as amber, I think the color umber tends to look like amber Just In my opinion..

Thanks very much for this demo. As for cool and warm Raw Umber, do they have different pigment numbers?

[@walcottfineart5088]

No, the pigment numbers with earth colors can be a little murky since the same one will cover many shades of that pigment. The best way is to test the color or look at a sample chart made with the real paint. The PI numbers are more about identifying the chemical components of the pigment rather than its exact color. Thanks for watching! :)

[@charlesreidy2765]

@@walcottfineart5088 Thanks for your explanation. I think I understand it now. Pigments can have the same index number, but how they're processed results in different hues.

[@alansartlog]

I was under the impression burnt sienna is typically PBr7 with Pr101 being called transparent oxide red / transparent burnt sienna though sometimes just burnt sienna like your tube but that's a bit rarer. I mention it only because you compared the two and said they only have a slight difference in color, but if you compare Pbr7 and Pr101 burnt sienna there is quite a difference in transparency, or at least that's what I've found. Hue as well but it's normal for that to vary just between brands.

[@walcottfineart5088]

Thanks for watching and for commenting! It just depends on the manufacturer. Some call PBr7 Burnt Sienna and some call PR101 Burnt Sienna. There is no differentiation between hues within the same Pigment Index numbers. :) Here's a good older video (not mine) that shows the differences! kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6SkpqykrbykqZY

[@junhua5819]

Do you find burnt umber becomes dull when paint is dry? It seems it absorbs a lot of oil and make certain areas sink. It's too bad because burnt umber is a very balanced brown.

[@walcottfineart5088]

Thanks for watching! Yes, Burnt Umber will tend do that as will some other colors. It's called "sinking in" and is perfectly normal. It depends on the chemical make up of the pigment, which is what causes it. It is easily fixed by "oiling out". This video by Gamblin explains the process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqe8kKWiZsmgobc You don't have to use their products though. Hope that helps!

Hello sir, I know I’m about to ask you a weird question but this question has been haunting me for quite sometime now. I just love to paint. I’ve made a lot of canvas paintings and I’ve noticed that with each painting I’ve improved my skills. But I don’t have a college degree in fine arts. Though I try to take you tube classes and learn new techniques from experts like you. Still, It bothers me sometimes. Is it necessary for a painter to have a degree in fine arts to be a good painter? And if yes, the how should one start in their late 20s.

[@walcottfineart5088]

Thanks for watching and for the great question! It is absolutely NOT necessary to have a formal degree in art to be good or succesful at it! I know of many talented and wonderful artists who came to it later in life and do just fine. I will say that having a degree in fine art has given me a framework in which I can orient myself artistically, but most of the technique and skill I have acquired came later through lots and lots pf practice and things like workshops and online videos. I watched a lot of KZbin for years before I started my own channel. It is never too late to pursue a degree if you want to, but it is certainly not required. Late 20s? You are still SO young and have lots of time to get where you want to go. :)

Thanks for the nice comment! Skin has many colors, depending on the lighting but, yes, you could use red ochre and white as a base color for portraits. You might need to warm it up a bit. Genuine Van Dyke Brown was an older color which was very fugitive. Tubes with this name today are usually mixtures of other colors, or variations on Burnt Umber.

Thanks for watching! Yes, I know about scumbling vs. glazing. :) You're right, I should have elaborated it further. My brain skipped to the next thing and I didn't explain it well.

[@fabrizio483]

Hi Jason, thanks for answering. I have no doubt you knew the difference between glazing and scumbling, it's very clear from your videos that you take the technical aspects of art very seriously and study them. Which brings me to the topic of White Spirits X Turpentine. I don't know if you've made a video on this (I'll check), but I've read that White Spirits, being a petroleum by-product is far more toxic and less compatible with oil paint than Gum Spirits of Turpentine, being a natural one. I know that many people have a problem with the smell of it, so they prefer Odourless White Spirits, despite the fact that lack of odour doesn't indicate lesser toxicity when compared to the non-odourless one. So what's your opinion on this as far as compatibility of the two? I must say that I try to use as little petroleum by-products as possible for environmental reasons, so that alone skews me away from White Spirits, but I wanted to hear your thoughts on it. Sorry for the long message and thank you very much.

[@walcottfineart5088]

OMG I have been pondering making a video about this very thing!! You are absolutely right. The odorless/mineral spirit petroleum based thinners should technically only be used for cleaning brushes...never to mix with the paint itself or make mediums. The white spirits do have a damaging effect on the oil, dissolving it slightly...genuine turpentine does not. I am planning on doing a "Mediums 2" video...I will cover this topic in that one. Thanks! :)

It’s a beautiful cool Italian Green Raw Umber in pure powdered pigment (so you’d just mix some w/ the oil you paint with on your palette) by Rublev. (Very high quality oil paints). It’s gorgeous. Wish I could share a photo of it. It’s very reasonably priced at approximately $7.50/ 100g (around 3.5oz). Btw, I receive no compensation for recommending that brand. I just think it’s a great quality pigment. I’ve bought several others from them as well 🙂
