A vibrant and creative workshop for anyone who would like to learn more about the art of mixing colour and how it can be used to add further depth and interest to your art.
Do you always use the same colour palette in your paintings? Are you reluctant to explore new colour combinations or not sure where to start? This workshop will focus exclusively on colour, nurturing play to discover new approaches and colour combinations.
Learn how to mix colours with accuracy and confidence and which pallets resonate with you most. We will also explore how colours are informed by other colours and how they affect one another when placed together.
The workshop will also include fun exercises in combining and contrasting colours and how to gather colour inspiration from the natural world as well as books and objects.
Participants will work with acrylic, collage and still life objects during the workshop and will leave with a small series of colour studies and colour swatches which will inspire future work.
Experience
The workshop is ideal for both beginners and more experienced artists who are looking to find ways of working with colour more intuitively. This workshop would suit painters, but also illustrators, printmakers, textile artists etc.
Teaching Experience
I hold a full PGCE and have been delivering workshops for over 15 years. I have been a visiting lecturer at Falmouth University and regularly teach at Tate St Ives and The St Ives School of Painting. I also have a BA arts degree and completed my MA in fine art in 2013.
