Art Tip: Choosing Shadow Colors
Added 2022-11-30 00:00:04 +0000 UTCHi everyone. Happy Art Tip Tuesday!
Here's a tip on choosing shadow colors. Instead of just lowering the brightness, also increase the saturation and change the hue to another color. Which color you change to can depend on the background and light source, but a good rule of thumb is to change the shadow color toward blue on the color wheel. So if the object is orange, shift toward red. If it's cyan or green, move to blue. This will make your shadow colors more vibrant.
Thanks!

I think it's always best to use multiple hues for skin. If you look at some of my works closely, you might see that I use red and yellow hues on the face. I'll make some of those tips within the next few weeks.
