There is a simple way to make color vibrant even on dark colors, the trick is to put white paint on the places where you want your colors to be bright and when the white is dry you simply put the desired color on the top of it.

Thank you, I just started a painting and was getting frustrated that I couldn't get the vibrancy I wanted for this golden hour piece. Your a life saver man!

I was just struggling last night to make yellow spashes on blue irises pop. I tried underpainting with orange and that helped but I will do it again with your technique. Thank you!

Hey Daniel! loved this video! The format was nice, and the video was short and to the point. I typically do my wildlife pieces in colored pencil and I've been thinking of going back to acrylics. Definitely going to try this tip out and see how it goes!

P.S Just came back to your channel after a few months and I love the new camera work. You've stepped it up quite a bit. Keep going!
