Thank you so much. I am a late bloomer at age 69 beginning my watercolor experience. I've been looking for an explanation as to what warm and cool colors are all about. Now I need to find out how to use this knowledge. Most instructors don't address this subject. They dive into painting pictures. I'm a great believer in learning the fundamentals of anything I do. The why is very important.

Thanks for this Louise! Very practical methods! I'm coming to watercolor late in life, and my brain is very entrenched in seeing color along a linear spectrum, like in physics (i.e., a prism or a rainbow). I understand how and why the color wheel works, and (thankfully!) I have a good instinct for color mixing. But I just cannot get my brain to make sense of "warm" blue or "cool" red: blue is cool, and red is warm (like infrared light) - stubborn brain, LOL! So instead I think of color names: not "warm" blue, but "purplish" blue, etc. It means I'm always translating the terms that artists use, but it's working for me so far. This also seems to be the naming schema that Crayola Crayons used back in the day - for example, you'd have yellow > orange(ish)-yellow > yellow(ish)-orange > orange. I'm sharing this in case it can help someone else who's stumbling over this important topic. Do what you need to do, to make it work for you!🙂

Thanks, Kim, for your explanation of your warm vs cool color identifications, how you see colors, and how you've worked it out. You saved me the trouble of putting my own color identification experience into words. Though my art isn't so amazing, I majored in art years ago and trust my ability to see and mix colors. Most of what's described as warm or cool colors makes intuitive sense to me except when it comes to the various blues. To me, ultramarine looks cool, and green-leaning blues look warm. Like you, I've recently come to the conclusion that color descriptions such as "red-violet" or "a green-leaning blue", similar to the old Crayola crayon color names, is a clearer description leaving less room for confusion or individual interpretation. After working through this, at least I know to pause when I hear someone refer to a "cool blue" and do my own mental translation. 😕🎨😄

Thank you for sharing these great tips, Louise! I know my way around a color wheel fairly well and I can match any color by eye alone - strictly through tuition - no thought of warm or cool colors as I've always struggled with that concept. I find it easier to determine warm vs cool in juxtaposition to other colors, but when there's just a white page or I'm having to mix colors, the color temperature was something I mostly ignored because it just seemed difficult otherwise. Anyway, your tips have given me a baseline to focus on and I know that will help immensely. Thank you for being so generous with the skills you've learned so that us noobs can understand better the watercolors we love to dabble in. Hope you and Dom have a great weekend (he's such a good helper! :))

Great work around, and very helpful. I still find the color wheel, color temperature, and color mixing to be a challenge. I initially got myself confused by lazily thinking cool + cool or warm + warm were always vibrant, and cool + warm were always muted. I was WRONG!! It is never that simple. Now, instead of helplessly worrying about color temperature when mixing pigments, I figure out my end color "mud factor" by examining all the pigments contained within the specific paint colors I choose to mix. When you mix cool blue and cool yellow, you are really mixing 2 different pigments together to produce a third color. EX: cool blue( blue with a touch of green) and cool yellow (yellow with a touch of green) produce a Vibrant green--unlike mixing warm blue(blue with a touch of red) and cool yellow(yellow with a touch of green) which together contain 3 different pigments to produce a muted green color; two of the 3 are opposite on the color wheel (red and green); the addition of red mutes the green end product-more mud factor than two cool blues. Warm blue and Warm yellow have the same problem:Warm blue( blue with a touch of red) and Cool yellow (yellow with a touch of green) = green with a touch of red pigment, which is muted. I hope I have explained my thought process. For me, when in doubt, figure it out! I am in awe of people like yourself, and many of your students, who can look at colors and know intuitively what to mix to get their preferred end color product.

This is, by far, the best instruction I've found for determining color temperature! I've searched for years to discover how to make these determinations for myself but had no real guidelines. Countless videos I've seen explain what the difference between warm and cool colors are and how they work to give depth to a painting, but yours is the first to demonstrate to us newbies how to determine for ourselves what category any given color falls within. Terrific! (Light bulb here.)

oh!!! This was super helpful!!!! Thank you so much,. To me cool or warm colour never really made sense. Apart from associating red and yellow with the warm sun and cold blue with the sea i could think of nothing else intuitively to help me remember what colour is what. And then i discovered cool and warm shades of the same colour exist, and wanted to pull my hair out lol. as other people below described what helped me differentiate is whether a blue would lean towards purple or green (although I was not able to say which one is cool and which one is warm, but at least i could distinguish between them finally. Anyhow, im around 40 just picked up watercolour a couple of years ago, never before done anything artistic other than primary school art classes, and it was a difficult beginning, although super enjoyable. this video helped so much in understanding the difference and differentiating between cool and warm colours!!!! i guess it was time to finally understand it after years lol.

I was thinking about my way to warm and cool colors, and it started feeling very complicated to do the more I thought about examples of warm vs cool that break the model I'm writing. So I ended up here, and I'm not quite as confused!
