My first workshop was with Charles Sovek and he gave a prize to the first person to use up his/her large tube of white. He opened my eyes to this sort of academic 'rule'. And I am not saying anything negative about this artist's work, but IN GeNERAL I noticed that artists who have this idea of 'saving' white had dark and dull paintings. So I say USE your white. There IS such a thing as white, you can buy it and squeeze it out on your palette. Same with blacks... Sargent used lots of blacks.

I think she's figured out a way to think about colors & mixing, and she's figured out what works for her. But the creative painter should explore mixing for themselves, and not be pre-emptively limited by other peoples edicts and rules. One thing to remember: add a drop of some other pigment, and that tube of white is no longer white! Mess around until your colors are working for _your_ compositions.

@monadavisstudio 3 ай бұрын

Ehe, to translate.. she means don't use white directly out of the tube on a painting. So the start of the conversation is a bit missunderstandable. I read into it never have white to mix with= not have it on the palett, and instead use a color to mix with, example yellow . THAT was so weird. But it showed out to be white to mix with a color. So still have it on the palett. Duduh. But I agree, knock down the paint was a great idea.

@itsshepherd5618 3 ай бұрын

I think they were being facetious with the title and beginning moments just for attention/interest. That’s my take. I think it’s (she’s saying it is) ok to use white from the tube - just recognize that whites are hues of blue (cool) if titanium and yellow if lead white (warmer). That’s my understanding as of halfway point of watching.

So...basically, think in watercolour when painting in other mediums. This sounds like one of the symptoms of learning by painting from photography. Cameras have limited dynamic range (values they can see) and anything beyond that gets blown to white or black.

You can get Titan Buff in Acrylic. Golden makes a good PW6:1 buff. It works as a warmer white. Some brands that offer a buff sell a mix... Goldens is single pigment. If I understand from what I have read from watercolor mfgs PW6:1 is a dirtier version of titanium white.

I come from a photographic background. We, as photographers, many of us know about something called "The Zone System." This was a scientific method nature photographers used such as Ansel Adams. Essentially it is the dividing the photograph into a 10-...19 black and white gray scale. Thus a specular WHITE, to a black, black, and ALL the gray values in-between. In photography, we used densitometers to measure the different spectrums of the shades, white and black, black. I understand why she might say that WHITE should pretty well be a non existent thing, but I tend to disagree, respectfully. I did take an art drawing class from a student from a Minneapolis Atilear (spelling 🤦🏻‍♀️) school... He had us sketch out a 10 point grey scale, going from WHITE to BLACK. The wise artist here seems to be of the same mindset. But I continue to believe that anytime you need to reference the most specular of all in a work.... such as DIRECT SUN ITSELF. There is no intermingling of color that should be put into the mix. Thus...🤔 (quandarence of my own) perhaps the canvas, the white of the paper should remain vergin of any paint, pencil, ink,...etc. to leave the highest white possible. But as far as "they" (makers) have not created a true white yet... Technically, I agree. I see her cup and saucer in the background. 😆 COOL! That was the very same first lesson we drew with our pencil grey scale. Thank you for posting this video. She is obviously so knowledgeable. 😀 Great teacher. Thank you Mandy❤

White paints are not lighter hues, and the variety in their temperature is due to the chemical properties of the various pigments, that is they absorb and reflect light differently. So in reality white paint is needed, but avoid using it excessively and on its own in the pure form.

White is my indispensable primary color. In the world of subtractive color it can't be mixed it with any other pigment. Yes, a 'neutral" white is a pigment that reflects evenly all the color frequencies of the light reaching it. So there is no white light? 5000K? Also, white pigment scatters the light reaching it. If it reflects it back at the same angle the light reaches it then it will be "silver". The light we call white is really composed of an even intensity of a range and spectrum of colors we call primaries. Actually white light is a continuous range of color frequencies. A range that humans only see a small part of. Painters are in the business of manipulating and reflecting light. No light, no art. Now as for sculptors they get to be seen and felt as well. Hey, shouldn't museums allow touching too? Oh, and musicians . . .

@Alithios 3 ай бұрын
