    Poésie picturale

    I am an artist living and working in France. I learned the techniques of the Atelier of the Nineteenth century and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I think that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. I do mostly drawing and oil painting, and my goal is always to provide techniques, thoughts and explanations that can be useful to anyone, from beginners to more advanced artists.

      This was the exact same issue I had, my colors were always too saturated. The change was dramatic after I switched to burnt sienna/ burnt umber etc for the base color, and lighten them with white

      Think of the blood that flows through our bodies and red blood cells in particular. What are they using to carry oxygen to our cells? Hemoglobin, which is dependent on iron. If, as some of the religious say, we were made from clay, it must have been iron rich clay.

      It’s such a pity that flake (lead) white has been banned from Europe. Titanium white is an excellent color for painting large surfaces like barn doors, but for any kind of artistic expression it should be treated with great reserve. The color is simply way too opaque, too overwhelming; it smoothers any color that it is mixed with. However, one can tame the beast by mixing titanium white with zinc white – the most transparent of all the whites. Zinc white is the purest white, its only fault is its fragility. When mixed with titanium white, zinc white reduces the opacity of the former and makes for a more usable white color. Very interesting video, one of the best I’ve seen so far on mixing skin tones. Best wishes from lead-free France.

      Great video Florent! This’ll help my brain know right where to go on my next portrait. Thank you so much 🎉 Hope you’ve been well 😊

      This concise discourse on the best pigments for creating skin tones, not only lists which ones are naturally closest, but explains why. Another segment to add to my growing color theory knowledge bank. Merci beaucoup, Florent!

      I totally get the point about the Lamborghini thing, I'm a Cuban artist,and Cuba is a poor country so I got to struggle to get some good pigments ,but what really matters is to understand the pigments and the color theory and of course make the most of the materials you have and dare to find new solutions to your tasks

      I'd like to use the Red , Yellow and Blue
      with a little bit White but no Black on the Canvas
      Impressionism , the heart of ARTS

      Excellent video! I thought I knew all there was to know about color mixing . . . well, I was quite wrong! Thank you for such great advice!

    27. Ingrida Daubaraitė on

      Yes but skin also contains green and blue colours, that does not appear in this pallet. And I am not talking about the shadow colours or colours that reflect on the skin.

      Nobody uses black to darken, or really at all. You can make a much better "black" by mixing a dark blue and brown.
