Benefits of the course

Art is easier and more rewarding once you put theory to practical use. You will understand colour relationships and the many techniques of applying colour to elevate your work. Create a colour palette unique to you so your art will standout.

This course is condensed and fast paced. It is always best to create your own version of these colour wheels and charts. However, much can be also be accomplished by watching them be created and seeing the theory put into practical action. Each painting covers many techniques. Colour terminology is both illustrated as well as explained.
