Thank you Andy I knew about the colours of light, but using the colours as in our printers I never thought about before. I will certainly give it a try when painting :)
Well that was really quite interesting I shall certainly be looking at the wheel in a different light now ! Always wondered about the printer inks Thanks for that :0)
What a revelation but so obvious when you think of the printer ink colours. A complex subject clearly explained. How come I've never known this in all my years?? Thanks for that Andy. Hugs Joanne xx
Hi Andy. How fun. I have actually worked with both "theories" but newer put them togeter before now. I was as (everyone) taught the "normal" one with yellow, red and blue (when using paint). But as a technician I learned the other teory, because that is how the light (at music and theather shows reacts.) I just accepted that is was the way light "worked" and newer stopped to wonder if the idea would work on paints too... :-D So yes, I kinda knew and then I didn't. So thank you for that, now I don't have to be confused anymore ;-) Boedker (from the forum)

ReplyDeleteInteresting.....if a little confusing to start with......I wonder why we get told the trad wheel then if it's not really true???
ReplyDeleteReally helpful video Andy, thanks for sharing :-)
ReplyDeleteAll I can say Sue is that it has always been my belief but have a go at this and see what you think... it does work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andy for the education. This is powerful.
ReplyDeleteIntriguing......we are taught the wheel and never think to look outside of that.....I need to watch again, thanks for sharing.

that is a cool video.. and a really handy lesson for mixing too. avoiding the dreaded MUDDY looks.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting and hope I can remember it all :)
ReplyDeleteWent slightly over my head at first, but very interesting take on the colour wheel.

Makes sense to me, I worked in print for twenty years. It was a great video, I like his style.
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, and thanks to Andy for sharing my video here. The truth is out there!! haha.
ReplyDeleteEver heard the expression 'Red and green should never be seen' ? Well that's because they're not complementary colours... its red and Cyan.
.............and I love red and cyan ha ha!
