If one desires to paint a person or landscape the way it truly looks, drawing and value are the foundation to this goal, not color. If drawing and values are wrong, the painting will fail to capture the essence of the subject. First drawing, then values, then use only red, yellow & blue, then use a full palette of colors.

My brother is a color blind photographer, but a great designer. All he hears from people is, how great your colors are. Get everything else right and being color blind is no problem.

Thank you so much for simplifying the color mixing techniques. I have looked for months for a simple explanation to this mixing madness when I was ready to give up I saw another good video that is even more detailed, but they used your name as their point of reference. I am so happy right now and can move on with my new hobby. Most explanations are so complex that you are more confused than when you started watching the video.

I agree, most make mixing color so complicated. It's very very simple to get basic, or general color...using nearly any red, yellow or blue. The more exact we want to get our color, the more we need the correct, red, yellow and blue. And...if we want our color match to be nearly perfect...then...it gets complicated... But even then, the right red, yellow and blue will get us 99 percent correct...in most cases.

Wow. That girl in the photo is gorgeous and you made her even more gorgeous in your painting... which seems impossible. I just found your site today. *When I see the subjects of some of your videos, I feel I should slog through them even though they sound boring as hell (like "value" of colors) and as I force myself to learn about the subject at hand, because I know I'm SUPPOSED to learn "it", I suddenly start to freak out and FEEL what you're saying. And I get interested in what you're teaching. And it doesn't seem as bad as memorizing times tables... kids probably don't do that any more... or... maybe learning how to spell phthalowhatever. Fabulous. I will watch your videos every day until I can repeat them in my sleep. Thank you.

Yes, values are to painting, what rhythm is to music. Chords are the color. One can have wonderful chords in your music (colors in your painting), but if your rhythm is off (values are off), your song...painting doesn't work.

Thank you Dr. Bob. That's why I posted these videos. Learning how to paint is like learning a language, or how to play an instrument. If you can learn how to play the piano, you should be able to learn how to paint quite well, with proper instruction. Very little good instruction out there in my opinion...glad you enjoy the lessons.

The problem with red acetate over a color Renee is that, if it's a red or red related color you put the red acetate over, the red color looks much lighter then it really is, because of the red acetate bias.

On my videos I sometimes use my iphone, take a photo, then go to editing in my iphone and turn the photo into black and white so one can see the value. One can also take a photo in a number of apps, I often us "top camera". After one takes the photo with the app, one can transpose the photo into many different images, one being black and white. Type: "photo editing" into the app search and nearly any photo editing app will help you see your photo in many ways.

Glad you enjoy my lessons. Remember, whether painting in watercolor or oil....getting the color right is one of the most unimportant parts of painting. If you watched my lessons, and if you are a realist, what's most important is: Get the drawing right...most people don't. Get the values correct...this is huge. Choose a subject that isn't too complicated. Choose a subject that has great mood. Create a painting with a powerful composition and design. These are the things that make a painting powerful, not color or technique. Very few understand this.
