Colour Theory - Tumblr Posts
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:
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 :)

Avant garde makeup artists would be wise to take cues from the Brown Pelican. Known for their incredible aesthetic sense, they use natural materials and dyes to accentuate and decorate their faces and gular pouches. Above, an accomplished artist poses to display their latest work during the 2013 Multimedia Pelical Arts Competition.

I'm thinking of making a series.
Making two images, one in the day and one at night the nighttime one will feature a ghost and a story behind it.
The main goal is to practice backgrounds and lighting, maybe even colour theory cause boy.... I suck at backgrounds.
Why ghosts.... Honestly I've been thinking a lot about life and death. About what happens when we go and how it effects or doesn't effect the world we leave behind
As you wonder down the country roads, passing through the flooded fields.
A ghastly shape catches your eye, as they gracefully drift by.
The knowledge of their departure is lost, to all those living currently.
Yet you are theft wondering if others see them fluttering. Upon the water surface gliding by so quietly, as the death that took them.
just uttered the phrase "colour theory is more art than science" out of my lips and got telepathically attacked by the seinfeld sauna image like akira
TRUST THE PROCESS
TRUST it's like Colour contrast for colour theory or smth idk
This was rather interesting. You always get into arguments with people who perceive a colour differently from yourself.
shading colour tips
hey yall its me the Art Mom™ to help you shade pretty
rule 1: DO NOT SHADE WITH BLACK. EVER. IT NEVER LOOKS GOOD.
red- shade with a slightly darker shade of purple
orange- slightly darker and more saturated shade of red
yellow- i think like..a peach could work but make it a really light peach
green- shade with darker and less saturated shade of blue or teal
blue- shade with purple
purple- a shade thats darker than the purple you’re using and maybe a little pink (MAYBE blue)
pink- darker shade of red
white- a really light lavender or blue..or i guess any really light colour??
black- okay listen dont use pure black to colour anything unless you want to leave it with flat colours because you cant really shade black lol
grey- a slightly darker shade of purple or blue (less saturated)
brown- slightly darker and less saturated shade of purple or red
aaaaand thats all i got lol. let me know if there is anything i should add to this list!!
