  • As painters, we need to know basic color theory and color mixing to make our work look vibrant and alive. In this class we will explore the four basic ideas behind color and the ways we mix and make it all work for successful paintings. We will deal with primary colors, building blocks for all hues; secondary colors, created from two primary colors; and tertiary colors, formed by mixing a primary and a secondary—as well as hue, value, and color temperature. Our class will create color studies using the classic color wheel. This is about color and color relationships in our compositions. We will do a color study and then a full painting from that study—for example, making a green color chart, then making a painting in greens, or a color chart in earth tones, then a painting in earth tones. There are new exercises for painters who have taken this class in the past. Come join us; all levels are welcome. Let’s explore this informative and exciting subject.
