Hi Friends, in this tutorial I am explaining how to achieve light and depth in your painting. I share what is very important to do, but many ignore. I also talk about values vs color and how to interpret what you see in real life using visual language for the painting to tell a story.
Hope it is helpful, if so please like, subscribe and share.
Happy painting!
Nina

All I had to work with as a child growing up is graphite pencil and paper if I could find it. We were quite poor in fact. But I learned how to do all with the one color of graphite and going by values instead of color at a very young age. I later had crayons but as pretty as the colors were, none were dark enough to do the job. So out came my trusty pencils. I do best working without color actually. It can throw me off. It was years for me to get used to using color. I use one green (PG7) but only for mixing. One of the best mixers I have. My darkest value blacks come from PG7 and Perm Alizarin Crimson. I can warm it or cool it easily. I don't use the real Alizarin pigment.

Hiya Nina, Thanks very much for another great tutorial. The values were the hardest thing for me to understand and apply when I first started on my art journey, especially translating colour into value scales, as you mentioned with the Cadmium Yellow and Ultramarine Blue analogy. It's vitaly important as you pointed out and the only way to really understand it is by practicing. It's well worth the effort and a well drawn/painted value study can be a work of art I'm itself. Take care Nina, love from England.x
