Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have both color wheels and I have several books on the color wheel and could not fully understand how to use it . Today I have learn (especially how to use the numbers on the color wheel) wow. This is why I love YouTube finding artist like yourself who are willing to share information. I appreciate you as I am sure others do as well. I will be checking out your other videos as well. As they say in life you can never stop learning. I am 68 and I have become obsess with coloring books of all subjects. I am learning everyday how to become a better colorist because of artist like yourself. Again, thank you for taking the time to share.

Thank you so much for this video. I am an acrylic painter who has been working to better develop my understanding of color theory. This video helped so much. I wasn’t aware of the small color wheel prior. That will take my paintings to a whole new level.

Great video as well thanks you demystified and clarified the color wheel I finally get it after seeing a few tutorials on youtube and they didn't know how to explain the complementary colors on the back very well it sounded abstract and the other shapes for complementary colors.I ordered the color wheel already waiting to receive it but wanted to know how it works and you did that .Thanks!!!
