Beginning Painting: Fundamentals
Adult Classes | Available
Get started painting! This class breaks down values of darks and light, along with cools and warms with a limited palette – white, payne’s gray, ochre and terracotta. Each class addresses the color wheel, introducing the contrast of black and white to middle grounds of grays, then we’ll add in warms and cools through color mixing. After the four session class, your knowledge of values will help you understand color-mixing with direct hue and how an artist mixes the light source with shades of cools and warms. This class partners well with the Beginning Painting: Color course.
