Approaching a subject to paint means the artist should include variety of elements into the equation. These overlapping factors have individual importance to look at separately. Here we are going to take a specific dive into colors in relation to forms and their angles towards light. Planes in accordance with the light source create ranges of tones. These tones carry their own color responses interacting with the light source and local color. Students will learn to create paintings that boost forms with colors along with tones. They will also learn to control wide ranges of colors in one piece without losing the homogeny. I will go through demos from simple forms like sphere and cylinder to delve into clear changes of colors with sharp shapes and the ways colors react due to changes in angles of planes receiving light. This will boost students' abilities in seeing colors regardless of the tonality of their subjects.
