Color Studies - Developing Palettes with Lena Wolff
A Series on 4 Sundays: Oct 5, 12, 19, 26
3pm - 5:30pm
This workshop was designed for anyone interested in taking their color studies to the next level. During the class we’ll create a small series of collage studies that play around with unique palettes, color contrasts, and color harmonies that emerge from paint-mixing prompts rooted in color theory principals. If desired, students can develop palettes for a body of work intended to be completed in a larger format or in a different medium — for example, as a planning phase for ceramics, a quilt, a series of paintings, etc.
