Flow and glow with beautiful neighboring colors!

Create harmony with a hint of mystery! Discover how neighboring colors can bring your art to life with subtle beauty and emotional impact.

In this session, we explore color harmony using 3–4 colors that sit side-by-side on the color wheel. You’ll learn how to create mood and atmosphere with soft transitions and layered blends in a serene seascape or sunset scene.

 Class Goals:

  • Learn to select and use analogous color schemes
  • Create smooth transitions and subtle blends
  • Explore mood and harmony in color


What to Expect:

 

You’ll explore mood and atmosphere through color as you paint a dreamy “Coastal Calm” scene in oceanic or sunset tones.

 

You’ll leave with:

  • Skill in choosing harmonious palettes
  • Techniques and experience for creating flowing color transitions and blends
  • A tranquil painting using 3–4 neighboring hues
  • A small, peaceful “Coastal Calm” painting

Kimberly Cesaretti

Kim was born in northern New Jersey, residing in Elizabeth and Hillside prior to moving “down the shore” with her family to Lanoka Harbor in December, 1971, where she and her two younger sisters were raised. She has been an artist since early childhood, from the moment she could pick up a crayon and make marks on paper. While a student attending Lacey Township High School, Kim participated in the New Jersey State Teen Arts Festival where her watercolor work was chosen to tour the state. Also, one of her oil paintings won second place in the New Jersey State Congressional Art Competition in her senior year. After high school, Kim attended the prestigious Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University. She continued her education at Ocean County College (OCC) and, while a student there, Kim landed a job as a Graphics Artist at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst (NAWCADLKE), NJ. She continued her career there after earning her Associate Degree in Fine Arts from OCC and then went on to earn a degree in Art Education from Georgian Court College in May 1995. Upon graduation, Kim received the Art Award from the Art Department at GCC and the Dean’s Medal of Academic Excellence (Highest GPA, Evening Division). While still employed as a Graphics Artist at NAWC, Kim earned a Master of Science in Systems Management with a Certificate in Technology Management from Capitol College, Laurel, MD in May 1998. After a seven year career as a Graphics Artist, Kim took the opportunity to enter the acquisition field in the Department of Defense as a Contract Specialist in August, 1997. Then, in January, 2000, Kim was hired as an Adjunct Instructor at Georgian Court College/Georgian Court University to help start and develop a web design program for the Art Department. Kim married her husband, Albert, in October, 2000. They have two daughters.
