Let's explore color theory in all its weirdness. Join me as I mix paint, bust myths about primary colors, analyze color schemes, and tickle your brain with color science.
This is a fantastic review thank you (especially for keeping it to four minutes of actual content rather than four minutes of content and twelve minutes of filler).
Wouldn't the molecular structure of the pigments (based on the source of the pigments) have an impact here? After all, RGB wheel deals with light in the mode of energy. Whereas paint is dealing with matter.
My brain perceived the colors the same until you finished the right side. I actively noticed my perceptions shift from the same color to different colors.
This is what Sir Ernst Gombrich called "the Spreading Effect." it's why type in a book looks gray, while it's actually black. The white page seems to "spread" over the black type.
My personal suspicion is that, just as man has numerous blood types, I believe man (collectively)has numerous numerous color vision processes. I believe our understanding of 'color blindness' is misguided because of this. I say this as a partially 'colorblind' watercolor artist. Let's not forget that the brain can/does form new neuro-pathways when introduced to new awareness (colorblindness) + info (color theory)....this can cause the brain to rescript the way colors are perceived and interpreted.
Hey! First of all, I am a big fan of your vídeos! I'm a color theory professor at the Design major of the Federal University of Pelotas (Brasil), and I'm willing to replicate this board, but with gouache. It's part of my book of colors, witch is used as a model for my students. Thank you so much for your content!
I tend to think of simultaneous contrast in terms of pushing - two color perceptions pushing away from each other in a 3D colorspace. In contrast, assimilation causes the colors to "pull" together
@@ColorNerd1 Thank you for the reply! I'm still puzzled as to when colors assimilate vs contrast. Because it's in the perception so it differs by case, no?
Got orange and violet. I'm really surprised by the pink, I expected it to be kind of a grey color because it seemed like a close match to each filters color
I actually love this. Though I would want to give all that extra space to green, since the human eye can differentiate more shades of green than other colors
Fascinating. Great how you talk along a subject, and then pull int artists and theorise along the way. Story+informative, the best way to teach. Thank you! Interested in what you make. Subscribed! 🙌🏻
…yes. Yes. We’re about to wmpart on some paint and ink and safe for bunnies and doesn’t smell so bad it is not allowed to be cooked IN the house paint making. Also engagement.
You mention how most mammals have YB cones. Are our RGB cones the result of the Y cone splitting into what is essentially its component colours, or is that just coincidental? It's almost like the angled position of red and green in that diagram suggests a phenomenon of that kind, with the Y end of the Y B axis splitting.
Very cool! I love your aunt’s project. I used color aid paper in graphic design school in the early 2000’s. Now I feel inspired to try to find the box and do something with it again. I’m sure my artsy 7yo would be in awe to see all the colors too!
YOU SAID THE "P" WORD! And my dog speaks english. The rest of the video was in conjunction with a squeaky toy. The goal of this game, apparantly, is to make sure the thing makes continuous sound. He really loves the word "play". I haden't relized how much I use it. It's up there with, "Is Blues hungry?" He's a 1 yo black lab. He's a complete goofball 24/7.
What is a link tree and where can we click to get the hi resolution colour wheel? Great upload, it is very interesting how the colours are represented on that wheel,
Linktree is a type of bare-bones web page of links. I maintain one which you can find a link to on my profile, or simply by Googling "color nerd linktree"
Because I treasure my art supplies, I still have my box of Color Aid papers from the 70’s nearly unused and am currently returning to doing a series of works using cut paper. I will be using my old Color Aid papers again.
In the "good old days" it seems to have been natural to insist that women should not engage in academic work as they did not have the brain/intellect for that. And if a woman dared to produce high quality academic work she was denied recognition - because she was a woman. Seems rather stupid to me.
I wish I could take your class. It sucks only getting bits and pieces on RU-vid. Those Color-Aid papers are cool but too expensive for students, in my opinion.
