Mal, you are one of my favorite people, and all of your videos are so helpful!! Thank you :)

I wish I was as good at painting as Mal is here...
But this video will definitely help me a little.

Great video Malmakes.

Surely I can't be the only one who recognized the Pokemon Sun and Moon music.. Thank you!

This helps a lot! I wasn't sure about the mixing process, but I'll be sure to reference this video when I attempt to paint something!

I always had extreme difficulty mixing colors on a palette. When i was in art class in high school for my second year my teacher always chastised me and bumped my final grade down on the final 3 paintings we had to complete for our 9 weeks exam. All because i found it easier to find the colors i liked after they mixed on the canvas. I no longer paint but I now understand at how easy this is now...

Hey, Mal! Do you use/think in RYB or CMY when doing your paintings?

[jordanroman]

Tertiary blue-green AKA PHILADELPHIA EAGLES GREEN😊😊😊😊

[dlfon]

Admittedly I've begun thinking more in terms of Cyan Magenta Yellow like you mentioned. The colors you get by mixing them are much more vibrant. However, RYG are still a good intro to color theory.
