It’s NEVER too early or too late to learn more about color! In this class, students will explore color theory and color mixing. Students will learn about individual pigments, their place on the pallet, and paint transparency and opacity. The workshop will emphasize identifying the value, intensity, and temperature of color. Other topics addressed will include color perspective, concepts for creating the illusion of space, mixing techniques, the illusion of transparency, and mediums, including glazes, that create color effects. Most of the day will be spent seated at tables, in a hands-on learning experience mixing hypothetical color combinations and ranges. The goal of this workshop is the study of a practical way of developing and thinking about discovery and invention in color mixing. Students will acquire concepts to fill their color needs that eventually, through use, will become fluid and subconscious.
