Also To Add To This, If You Paint With RYB And Only Have One Paint Tube For Each Primary, Ur Seriously

Also to add to this, if you paint with RYB and only have one paint tube for each primary, ur seriously limiting yourself. If you have a cool and a warm version of each primary, u can mix pretty much any colour. This is called colour bias and it literally saved my colour mixing.

To make a long story into a short one: warm blue has more red. Warm yellow also has more red. So when you mix them you're essentially mixing all the primary colours, which creates brown (albeit a very greenish brown). To bypass this problem you can mix cool blue and cool yellow, bc cool yellow has a blue bias and vice versa. So no brown undertone.

I learnt all this after a very frustrated past me decided to google how to paint better green, and i found this article which explains colour bias in more detail:

Draw Paint Academy

How to Mix Vivid Greens and Why You Must Understand Color Bias

Learn how to mix vivid green using different blues and yellows and what color bias means.

It's a very interesting read and it's the article that made me go from hating colour theory to liking it, so i highly recommend it :)

be careful, little moth of the gleaming light

be wary, little moth of blinding your sight

be cautious, little moth of the warmth so bright

be mindful, little moth of which you cannot fight

stay distant, little moth from the fire burning bright

Hiding under the cut for insects but I found a moth indoors so I picked it up gently (whilst carrying a new printer under one arm PLS) and helped it to go outside but it wouldn’t leave 😭 I love moths they are so silly littol fellas

Took a lil video, it’s rly windy atm and I live by the coast so hence seagulls

helllooo

whats your favourite moth?

I can't really answer with any of my top 3 bc they'd reveal the approximate region i live in :(

They're all moths ive seen personally while mothing or that just turned up one day. On a sidenote i recommend mothing and familiarizing yourself with the moths in your region to anyone who likes moths. maybe I'll make a post with some tips!! Cuz it can help a lot with the monotony of seeing the same (normally saturniid) moths on the internet over and over

Anyways the subfamily my favourite moth is from is arctiinae (tiger moths, and other moths like wasp moths)

Some tiger moths:

And yeah!! Some fun facts:

Did u know some arctiinae moths release poisonous froth from a gland close to their eyes to protect themselves?? They're called frother moths :)

Some tiger moths can hear bats' ultrasonic echolocation sounds, and reply with their own sounds. Although it was first believed this acted like sonar jamming, we now know that for some species it's acoustic aposematism (aka the audio version of bright warning colours). And for some it's both!!

Isabella tiger moth caterpillars can overwinter mild below zero (in celsius) temperatures because they produce antifreeze
