Discover the best way to use your paint to mix rich and vibrant colors. This workshop provides an overview of pigments to achieve your desired palette, demonstrations in color mixing, and a look at how historical and contemporary painters build palettes. By the end of class, students will construct and mix their own palette showing a breadth of value, temperature and intensity of each carefully selected hue.
This interactive workshop is limited to 12 students. It will be hosted via a zoom meeting. Registered participants will be sent a direct link to the meeting the day before the workshop.
Open to all levels.
