LESSON NOTES

What's in Premium?

I will show you exactly how to control color temperature to make your paintings feel unified. We look at several of my past illustrations to break down how warm light and cool shadows actually work on the color wheel. You will learn the bully principle of direct light and how it pins your hues together. I also explain why shadows give you much more freedom to play with color variety.

I break down the two main paths you can take to transition from warm to cool using hue and saturation. We also cover how to handle tricky situations like reflected bounce light. You will see how to build a natural bridge between your extreme warm and cool colors so your lighting always looks convincing.

In this color theory lesson by Marco Bucci, Marco shows you how to improve color temperature in your paintings by understanding the interaction between warm and cool hues under different lighting conditions. He uses practical examples and direct color sampling to show how light and shadow affect color perception. Key techniques like the "bully" light principle and the use of saturation are discussed to help you create cohesive and visually appealing artworks.

I’m one minute in and already smiling because of a painting made on a Nintendo DS.
