UNDERSTANDING COLOR - Composition and Harmony for Painters

Thanks for watching everyone ! Tell me what your favorite color composition ideas are... As always, joy and inspiration to you ! ✨✨✨✨

It's so useful for me - the newbie of this career!

amazing

Explain and teach complex subjects in simple terms is a talent that few have and you are one of those

Really interesting, thank you for sharing your concept. I have been studying color theory for many years but this brings in another perspective. thanks for sharing!

Great video! Love how you proof your color theory at the beginning with that eye illusion!

I love how broad the application of the advice you give is. A lot of art channels are only helpful if you're trying to paint in the same way as the instructor. but this has such amazing carryover and you explain how it can apply from everything to painting to video games to interior design. and yet despite the appeal and advice being quite broad based - it is also so specific and detailed. really thank you, youre doing an amazing service to artists.

This was super helpful thank you!

This is SO HELPFUL. Thank you! I'm someone with a good grasp on theory, but struggling on utilizing it within composition. This was exactly what I needed!

Ty very much. Amazing video!

I fuckin love your videos. Helped me too much too fast. Thank you.

This is the one of explanations I like - I like to know “why?”s behind to rules.

Great tips, thanks

Your final comment about color theory is "feel free to break the rules". This is really the only color theory rule I've ever found to work consistently. I think many beginner artists drive themselves crazy trying to understand and utilize color theory when the reality is that color is intuitive. The rules you presented can be helpful when thinking about why certain colors and artworks grab our attention or evoke certain responses, but rigidly following them won't necessarily lead to a successful artwork. Your presentation was very clear and engaging, so thank you.

CMYK is print it's nothing to do with modern, RGB is digital, RYB Red Yellow and Blue are analogue ie the actual primary colours the human eye sees that make up all the secondary and tertiary colours.

I truly enjoyed watching this video, last I said this was over a decade for a video game content. Thank you 👍

This man looks like some painting himself...

Absolutely the best color theory video, thank you Florent!

Awesome video, thank you!

Merci pour tout ces bons conseils sur les regles...les explicatiobs sont à mon goût 😊 et l'accent (français...?) me transport "dans mon pays". Bonne continuation 🎉

Thanks very much for this!

Уважаемый, а может этот колор подойдёт?! Вы почему так разговариваете, не нравиться , берите и красоте сами

Wow! Thank you for this great knowledge of Color Harmony.

I am very grateful that i found your vedios 🤍

Ohhh man, you just gave me a light bulb AHA moment 💡💡💡. Thank you 👍🥰

they dont have to be perfect complements but if they are not there grey mixture will be leaning towards a hue and not be perfect zero chroma grey which can be good in the suitable situations.

Too too many artists think chroma and saturation are the same thing… it is not.

Le français est une très belle langue. Selon moi, la plus belle du monde. Malheureusement, je ne le parle pas très bien, est je l'écris encore pire. J'aurais vraiment apprécié des vidéos tutoriels en français parmi tous les vidéos en englais.

Looking forward to learning more! Thank you!

I love how your framework focuses on the way color guides a viewer’s eye through the painting. I’ve heard of the 60/30/10 rule before but mostly in reference to balance — which is only one small part of composition. Thank you for sharing!

This content is filled with innovative and engaging ideas. Reading a book with similar themes sparked my creativity. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze

Thanks!

Cool

Red-Yellow-Blue is not evenly spaced, it would be Red-Green-Blue, but those colors are not well suited to painting
The additive color wheel is red green blue, and the subtractive, or traditional wheel is the result of inverting it.

when adding light:
red + blue = magenta
red + green = yellow
green + blue = cyan

when mixing paint
magenta + yellow = red
magenta + cyan = blue
yellow + cyan = green

This is solid. Thank you.

amazing revelations.

What an incredibly informative and organized video! As a lifelong musician who has only recently started painting, these terms make so much sense to me! Also, the video was so visually pleasing, from the video quality to the gorgeous paintings to the diagrams and labels. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!

Very well done and said.

This is the one I've been looking for!

Thank you for sharing this invaluable video. I feel enlightened.
