1. any particular reason you recommend the lemon yellow over the hansa yellow light? 🙂

2. Is it ok to mix and match any of the warm and cool that you have listed from the various suppliers I might have some from DS and others from maybe Turner or WN? Thanks for these videos makes a lot of sense why my paintings look like mud

3. Great color mixing explanations! Thank you.

4. By far the most easy to understand explanation of what a split primary color wheel is and WHY you want to use one. I’ve spent days looking for this!! THANKS dr. Kano !🙏🏻 🙂

5. Hello and thank you for the very thorough explanation of this hotly debated subject. I do have a question which will probably be considered controversial, but… On the CMY color wheel, if you mix a cool red and a cool yellow to produce an orange-red, orange, and yellow-orange wouldn't those colors technically be considered cool? Is cool orange a thing?

6. thank you ♥ I have learnt a lot!

7. How do I get my hands on a watercolour paint catalogue like this one? I am always trying to look up transparency, lightfast and pigment numbers online and it is always so slows. Paper so much faster.

8. Please, I was wondering why is the (more Greenish) Blues closer to Yellow are COOL and the (more Purplish) Blues closer to Red are WARM when isn't Yellow ultimately warmer than Red? I've heard many artists call the Ultramarine color warm like you, but I've also heard some say exactly the opposite and call it the cool one, but I feel you're WAY SMARTER;) Could you please forgive my confusion?

9. "Passion raising" 😂😂😂🏆

12. I've added brown as 7th colour. As I always have difficulties to mix it

13. Thank you! Thank you! I am a fiber artist and I mix all of my own colors in dye for wool. I have been really baffled by the various versions of the primary colors and how to get clear results. The split complimentary is clearly the answer I’ve been looking for. I am eternally grateful.
