Course Overview

Working from images of your own or simple still lives in the studio, learn how to mix and paint the colours of changing light.

Workshop theme: The Colour of Shadows and Capturing Light

Start with excersises on mixing the colours of shadows on simple objects, and then capture the light in more complex compositions. Tanya will give you tips on managing the water to achieve light and dark colours, and students will learn how to organise their palettes and choose relative pigments. Students will learn how to build colour relationships on the page with success and how palettes change at different times of day, gaining inspiration from some great artists of mood and light such as Hans heysen, JJ Hilder, Kenneth MacQueen and William Turner.
