Unlock the power of color to create light, depth, and three-dimensional form in your paintings. This class focuses on the essential skills of color mixing as a means to capture atmosphere, model form, and direct the viewers eye. Through demos, guided exercises, and instructor feedback students will:
-Understand the temperature relationships between light and shadow
-Mix harmonious color palettes that convey mood and time of day
-Create the illusion of volume using hue, value and chroma
-Simplify complex light into clear color relationships
-Avoid common pitfalls that flatten a painting
We will be painting in the studio and outside. Phil will paint a full demonstrartion each day. There will be one on one instruction as well as group critiques.
