This video goes over what split-complementary color schemes are, what variations you can create, how to use them in different color proportions to create different effects, how to use them print design and clothing, and in illustration.

First! Keep it up zoe! 😉
Please LIKE this video if you want more color theory videos! Hope this video is useful in making future color choices!
This is great. I love this. Thank you for this education.
That first one is screaming Gryffindor to me. I love the third one, though.
Zoë, I have what might be a foolish question, I don't know if you have talked about it. Why do people associate certain colours with certain seasons? If it is to mimic the colours found nature at the time, why is that considered the most "appropriate"? I like and look best in bright colors but I can't find many items made for cool/cold weather.
Ah! Something I have a little bit of experience with! Whenever I do set painting (I used to do interior house painting too, but it was too much pressure…sets are only for a few months, houses can be forever), people ask me how I "get away with" colors that "don't go together," and it's almost always because I mix the non-complementary colors in some way as a transition somewhere (like in moulding or trims). I don't think any colors "don't go" because as you said, all colors are made of the same tints in some way, and besides, nature doesn't worry about colors mixing or not mixing together.
Lovely video!
So… the way I see these dresses being worn by customers left to right: 1st is a classic french girl, brown hair, natural eyes, dark lips and nails; season – probably A/W. Second dress – I'd put it on a person with a darker skin tone or at least black hair if I'm going for a more settle look and if I'm searching for an edgy, young look – Benjamin Moore's Tucson Teal color (dark blue-green) for hair color on a girl with light skin, season is probably SS (for AW I'd add some orange to the yellow color to make it warmer and a bit less bright). The mostly light blue-gray dress – I think it will look good on very dark or very light skin, and most hair colors, but I'd draw the model with an Asian looking traits and very pale skin for a soft, cold/fresh look. Woks well for all seasons, I'd put it in a Resort collection. If I expressed myself somewhere incorrectly, I am sorry, English is not my first language.
I feel like the colors harmonize the best on the first dress, but I also wear maroon a lot so I’m pretty biased
#offtopic Do think as a designer it is better to have your flat and studio(place where you and youur co-workers work) in the same place or have them in separate places?
I like the light blue dress it more subdue and I think I would wear a dress like that.
oh my gosh zoe- i thought i lost your channel and you were gone.. well..thank heaven i found you- i also cleaned out my list of subscriptions- got rid of over 500 you tubers I don't watch! feel liberated.
The middle one is my favorite 🙂
hey zoe, so i have this confusion whether your supposed to use bright colours in winter to make the wearer feel more energetic or whether you would go with cooler mutes for winter strictly ? And as of now i would say maroon for winter, yellow for resort (to increase the energy levels) and pale blue green for summer(coz the sunlight would anyways make it look bright).
your video is useful , thanks <3
You just got a new subscriber ❤️❤️
Those as Vneck sleeveless shirts would look great for me as a feminine guy! The second I love! But I love all of it❤️❤️❤️ you did great?
I don't know which one to chose, all them look well but not common to see. Very confused
First dress says winter or more formal. (Dark brown/black hair)
Second dress says spring. (Auburn/red)
Third says summer to me. (Blonde)
My interest is mixing colors using minium colors .. Cyan , Magenta, Yellow ,white ,black wuld be great. I'm viewing your videos and tumbing them up to see if you demonstrate mixing colors with minimun colors . One video , you showed a Cy, Mg, yellow color wheel but no explanatin of that . Could you direct me to one of your videos that demonstrate printer color mixing for illustrators?
Are there any brands that market a pure yellow, magenta.cyan paints for illustrators? Cerulean blue is the closest i can find for cyan . It seems to mix well w/o mudding up i can pick out an approx.magenta , on a watercolor dry pigment variety , a pure mixable yellow i cannot find . Many yellows in acrylic or watercolor , gouache have a green tint . I can't find a mixable yellow .
What colors mix well for a broad range of colors? Have you had any sucess with using printer's ink for color mixing and illustration
Thank you! I’m learning color theory. This helped a lot for my Makeup studio business. Color theory helps with any form of art. As a makeup artist it helps a lot!
Idk why but the third dress remind me of the dress that either looks like white and gold or black and blue…
I think the red dress would look good on a very pale Caucasian skin tone with pink undertones, and I would do brown hair to bring back some of the warmth in the red dress. I think yellow looks great on dark skin, so I would make her very dark and make the hair black. And the light blue feels very summery to me, so I would do a tan skin tone, and I think a reddish hair color, because it is the complementary color, so the blue pops more.
..i need that color wheel wow
대박 ㅠㅠ 너무 좋음
For Fall, I would choose the first dress on the left. For summer I would choose the dress on the far right. For spring, I would choose the yellow green dress. Most of my friends would like the far right dress.
FANTASTIC!!!! You are amazing!!! Kisses from Brazil!
Loving that pink ~
White hair or greyish hair on the burgundy ish dress… black or red ombre on grey dress Brown or blueblack short hair?????
