Paint 4 mini landscape paintings full of color and learn color theory in the process!

In today’s video lesson, I’m learning about color through play. I follow a few simple rules when working with and choosing color:
1. I focus on a basic understanding of complementary colors and how they interact (side by side, they pop; mixed, they create a neutral).
2. I remember that certain colors are dark value colors (red) and others are light value (yellow) and their tendency toward a range of values influences how much impact they have in the painting.
3. I paint with a light touch so that colors can mix and flow organically and stay luminous.
4. I choose colors for a painting based on my observation - what the reference photo suggests - and my gut - what feels right based on what’s already happening on the paper.
