Hi lovely people! :) I norMally don't paint and I avoid colors - so this was out of my comfort zone! Please, if anyvody feels like givibg some feedback, I'd be really grateful. PS. I did't use the original drawing because I figured out too late how to dowaload material from the course... so I made my own. Many things aren't finished - materials aren't cler, I'm unsure about values, etc. Please go ahead and tell me EVERYTHING!!! THANK YOU <3

Gave it my first go with red and cyan, since I've painted a lot like this before, but I've never been the best with colour or environments. I tend to give up long before they're really cleaned up or fully finished, but I am happy enough with this! I like the ominous feel.

Definitely have a lot to work on, especially in terms of value/difference between shadow and light. Looking forward to learning more

Here's my attempt! I think the exercise was very interesting! I would have liked to play a bit more with the saturation since I think I played it rather safe. I also normally never use textured brushes or transparency so this was a bit tricky to figure out. If anyone has any feedback I'll gladly listen!

I learned so much from this lesson! This was so much fun. I tried to paint a different light source and different colours to apply the lesson rather than copy the result. Was this successful? Is the light source correct? Do the colours retain harmony? Any and all feedback appreciated.
@drawingdodo
I think the colours still retain harmony, but maybe they could be pushed a tad further, using the hard light method he described!

Here was my attempt at the chapter 1 lesson. I think in terms of color I could've done a better job in setting the background apart from the foreground. I tried saturating the yellows more than the purples like in the video but I feel like there's something missing in terms of color. It may be that I didn't use that saturation economy well like Marc discusses, not too sure at the moment so I'll have to think it over.

I never thought to start out with neutrals like this, so this has been an eye opener for me!

Took a while to come together. Ended up being ok. Really liking this course so far! Any constructive feedback?

So question, would you recommend always starting a painting with neutral grays?

I tried my best on applying the content to another scene! I'm not sure it looks completely right, tho ^^

Here's my attempt

Here's another practice applying the lesson. I might need to push some areas with more saturated colors I think. Any suggestion will be very much appreciated.

This course really taught me a lot for the first time I actually understand how to begin to properly think about colour. Love this course

The colour dodge technique was an eye-opener for me. So nice.
