Are you looking for ways to make your acrylic paintings stand out and avoid harsh colors? Want a calmer and more balanced look and feel to your artwork? Then using neutrals (also called naturalized colors or grays) in your paintings is the way to go. There are lots for reason why you would want to use grays/neutral. In the video I share my favourite way to mix neutrals/grays using complimentary colors.

makes sense to start with the lighter color! That was my mistake when I gave up! Now I will try!

Thank you for sharing your experience. I have tried mixing my own orange with yellow and red and add it to ultramarine blue, but the mix was not always satisfactory as I got different results depending on the choice of reds or yellows I used. I will buy cadmium orange in the future to get more consistent results.

@rhonalow3271 7 ай бұрын

It is probable that she uses paints which have only one pigment… whereas you are using an orange composed of at least two pigments, plus the blue, giving a much muddier, browner, colour. Try single pigment paints.

Wonderful why did you choose Cad orange and ultramarine and not other oranges and blues? Could you also suggest other specific colors to make neutrals. Thanks again

@TheDanishPainter 2 жыл бұрын

Yes it could be ultramarine violet and lemon yellow. I'd love to do more videos on complimentary colors. What I really need is more time and an assistant so I could spend more time making more videos about painting and color. Thanks for watching :)

Red and green are opposite on color wheel, orange n nlue, yellow n purple, in lay terms...also combos yellow-orange n blue-violet... They key, i believe, is opposite colors on the color wheel ... Seems like magic, eh? Learning something new everyday 😉💃💕 thank you, marie louise 🥰💕🥰🕊️🌏🕊️
