I have some pinks and was always thinking whether the diluted Alizarin Crimson is the same as the Rose colors. I have Winsor & Newton Cotman Alizarin Crimson Hue (PR206), Permanent Rose (PV19) and I've bought Rose Madder Hue (PR206) only to see whether there is a difference. They all look different to me, despite the same pigment. So I would not say I could get Alizarin Crimson if I just use more of the Rose Madder.

I own all of the colors that you showed here, not all by the same brands though. And everything put together, I own 97 colors (yes, I counted just to answer the question) and many of them in several versions/by different brands. Yes, I know this is a bit excessive (even though looking at some people's wc collections, they would probably laugh at how small mine is), but I really enjoy trying out different colors and pigments, and I don't smoke or drink, so I can spend my money on paints instead. 😸 🎨

The abstract you mentioned that was painted with Opera Pink hasn't faded maybe because it is hung away from sunlight? Please don't risk your lovely work fading by painting with fugitive colours. Alizarin crimson has a bad reputation for fading, too. Love your videos Michele! Clear, concise with a smattering of humour. 😁😁
@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber 2 жыл бұрын
My Alizarin is permanent, as for Opera pink it has a bad reputation only partially deserved. The pink does not fade, only the iridescent part of the pigment. I have found it looks good after years hanging in the light.

Excellent video. I have only been painting with watercolour since September 2021 and it is now almost July 22. I have taught computer art for about 20 years. Using pigment colours is a very different animal. The transition has been a journey that won’t stop anytime soon. Your videos, Michelle, have been so helpful.

Very well explained and helpful. I have all of these colors And we'll definitely be experimenting with those mixes that are new to me.I have no formal fine art training, and started learning watercolor 3 1⁄2 years ago using an online video course. We started with 6 colors, A warm and cool of the 3 primaries.I then took a class on craftsy On luminous watercolors And added another 4 colors. Somewhere in that 1 year time., I got hooked and I now have a pallet collection Of 43 paints Plus Another 2 or 3 in the box that I will most likely not use but had to try. I have been doing mostly florals but I am moving into landscapes, so have a whole new Exploration experience Ahead of me. Just for reference sake, I am 70 years old, live in a small rural town on the west coast of the United States, and have little or no access to art education except online.Your Videos are some of the best I have seen.I appreciate you doing them on KZfaq because I am also on a very limited budget, So online courses Are rarely an option. Keep up the good work!

Michele, your skin is a lovely shade of ivory that looks like creamy velvet and it is so smooth and unblemished like porcelain. With your hair colour you look just perfect, not something from a grave, although I do love your little self deprecating jokes. Keep up the wonderful videos, I love them. Started painting with watercolours again, during lockdown , (always loved them but never mastered them, especially mixing them) after years of photography, oils, graphite, charcoal, coloured pencils and finally some pastel work . I have really enjoyed them and have done landscapes, portraits, flowers, old architecture and so on in 2021, photo processing for a while again, now its winter, back to painting again. Thanks, you are an inspiration.

I'm always watching these at 3 am and am too brain dead to even know what to say, except thank you! This probably sounds completely stupid I didn't realize this is how colors are mixed, I have just been taking the closest tube to my target color and trying to "push" it closer to my target. I mean, most YT channels will just pick two colors and stir, and call that done. But you go through the thought process out loud and then get even more particular about creating the right shade. SO helpful!! 💝💖

You really are skilled! 👍Maybe it would be even more obvious to us beginners if you show on paper every mixing step? For example when you mix two colours on your palett and you immediately see that you need a third to get the colour you're after. 1) It's impossible for us wiewers to know what shade you're after only by saying names. If you show us on paper you can say" no, that's too grey, not what I was going for. I believe I need some x colour in it." Then you show us how you mix it on the palett, and finally on the paper? 2) As a proffessional YOU immediately see what's wrong and know how to correct it, but us wiewers can't read your mind and that way know what's wrong? So please show every every step on palett AND paper? Thank you❣

I have all 83 QoR watercolors. I love color. I mix I play I convience I do what ever. And I agree you can't mix a bluish pink. It's a definite needed color. I don't really use mine the same as you do at all but I loved learning all tge ways you do. My skin tone fave for Caucasian is a conviencince color. I use QoR's vanician red watered way way down. And for darker skin mix it with paynes gray and water it way down. Or their van dyke brown. I have some beautiful things happening in the watered down of watercolor. But I sometimes take my quinacridone magenta way watered down as a glaze for rosy cheeks or lips or sunlight over any of those skintones mentioned above. I love the blue pink to mix with oranges and purples to make sky's super beautiful.

Depending on the language you speak, you might have the concept of light blue being something entirely different from dark blue and consequently have a different word for it. In Russian, for example, golouboy (голубой) is light blue, siniy (синий) is dark blue.

Wonderful video! I thought I understood the basics of mixing but am still getting mud. Your videos are clear and just technical enough to explain what's happening. Thx Michelle. Hugs from Texas.

This was so interesting. I would never have thought of using viridian green with yellow and pink to get those beautiful neutrals. Thank you for making it so simple and straightforward.

🙆🏻♀️ *I have never watched skin tone mixing videos before because I don't paint portraits (🤔 or any type of skin period, for that matter 😂) so I nearly began fast forwarding the video until I heard "even if you don't paint portraits these mixes may be very useful for crockery colors"...* *I'm like, 😳 "Whaaaa... 🥳 Woohoo!" I do lots of still life scenes that have dishes galore in them. Now I have a reason to watch all the skin tone mixing videos I had skipped on before! Thank you so much for opening my eyes!*

Oh, I never buy a color set (we don't yet have single tube paints to buy in my country unless it's W&N and DS) that doesn't have a blue-based pink in it. No matter how much I love the other colors, blue based pink is a must for me.

Woo I guessed it right! Lol. Took me over 20 years to learn that magenta was what I needed all along to get the hues I want 😂

Whenever I watch one of your videos, I learn something useful. Thank you so much for sharing the benefit of your experience with all of us! -Oh, I have all those colors, but not any phthalo green.. The color gives me indigestion. Never ever thought of mixing quin rose with it to calm it down, since I don't have it(!)

Fascinating to see you starting with blue, then green, to ultimately reach (Caucasian) skin tones! That never would have occurred to me! Also nice to hear how to mix good purples (my favorite color range), I think as a youngster I tried to make purple cake frosting by mixing red and blue food coloring, and never could get a color I liked! Very useful to learn these tricks, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!

Thank you for watching! I am sure the food colouring wasn't your fault. If you had the wrong red and blue it wouldn't have worked no matter what you did :-)

The thing with Viridian is that true Viridian pigment is quite beautiful and subtle. Unfortunately what's labelled Viridian is more often than not actually Phthalo green!

My absolute favorite watercolor paints are d.s. quinacridone rose, d.s. phthalo green BS, d.s. or m.g. phthalo blue GS, d.s. lemon yellow py175, and S E N N E L I E R D I O X A Z I N E P U R P L E. Sorry I had to type this way, you tube AI changes spelling and meaning in what I type.

Fab, I've always wanted to buy opera pink for my palette to add spark, now this is giving me the tipping point to do it! Thanks so much. Good to know my Quin Rose will suffice in the mean time.

La vie en pink! Before I had a proper blue-based pink watercolor, which looks more likely a Quin Magenta, what I did to make a blue-based pink was to mix a bright neutral red and a red-based purple. They made decent (if not muted) pinks.

Good explanations. The camera angle was a bit wonky to the point I felt like I was sort of standing on my head or something. A bit circle light could help with the shadows. Just something I noticed that distracted me--if it's something you think would be good to adjust somewhat. I'm a TOTALLY new painter, so I appreciate any help I can get!

thank you Michele another informative, interesting video that i enjoyed...i knew it's an 'older' 🌼video but as a new subscriber i'm catching up...i came across a lovely colour mix: rose and raw umber makes a greenísh grey neutral and another: rose and viridian softens it to a lovely versatile colour. 🎨
