Exploring Color Theory with Oils : Workshop Series 2024-25

Instructor displays monochromatic value scales in different colors. Students create their own monochromatic value scales, choosing a single color and mixing shades from light to dark on their canvases.

Instructor presents the color wheel, explaining the relationships between primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. Students create their own color wheels, labeling and mixing the colors to gain a practical understanding.

Instructor demonstrates how to create a smooth gradient from one color to another using blending and layering. Students practice creating gradients on small canvases, experimenting with different colors and transitions.

Instructor shows a painting with strong value contrast, explaining how it impacts the artwork. Students choose a simple object and create two versions: one with high value contrast and one with low value contrast to observe the difference.

Instructor displays artworks featuring complementary and analogous color schemes and discusses the visual appeal of each. Students choose a subject and create two versions of the same painting, one using complementary colors and the other using analogous colors.
