Colour Tutor

Colour Workshop 2

This follow on one day workshop will revisit elements of Workshop part 1, but provide the opportunity to go into much greater depth. We will look at how to use colour discords, how colour relates to composition and how colours work spatially. There will be lots more palette mixing and new examples with Powerpoint and notes.

We will look at many different examples of how colour is used across a wide range of disciplines.

Colour Workshop Part 1 needs to be done before this workshop.

Resources includes Powerpoint and notes to take away.

This workshop is for anyone who loves colour and wants to investigate further.

"It sounds cliché but learning about colour through Juliet's workshops changed my life. For a week or so after I would go about my day analysing the colours I saw day to day and figuring out how, in my head, I would mix these colours myself. I reflect on old paintings from institutions before and realise just how my improper use of black to make my colours darker has heavily impacted the overall tone, and most of all I now know for current and future paintings how to make my own violet to darken other colours. Learning colour can be stressful, for sure, but with quality paint, quality teaching, and a quality PVA spatula I've conquered colour forever."
