Description
Have u ever tried mixing your paints and felt frustrated trying to mix the right color?Do you struggle with ‘muddy’ colors and want to feel more confident when creating the color mixtures you need?Are you having trouble telling whether the paint colors are Warm or Cool?Are you spending too much money buying all different paint tubes to create your art?You know what you want, but you don’t know how to get there.It’s time to change that!Not understanding color or its theory, can quickly take us out of the flow and leave us feeling frustrated.The good news is that color doesn’t have to be complicated.This color theory course will give you a strong foundation in color while also giving you the confidence to try new things!As Artists we must understand what color is, to know how to use it properly in our paintings.This course covers all the basics of the Color Theory and the Color Wheel which will help you build a solid foundation and will help you make progress as an artist faster!We will understand what is a color wheel and how to create it from scratch without a stencil.Why the Color Wheel is an essential tool for artists and how it is used to create great art.And how I like to create an extended color wheel that helps me create and see 72 colors or more out of just 3 colors.With a basic understanding of the color wheel and a few hours of mixing practice, you’ll be amazed at how quickly your color skills grow.Inside the course, I share my biggest takeaway from the color wheel along with tips for muting down or desaturating colors in 3 different ways, and how knowing the value contrasts of colors help us in painting better!One of the most confusing topics to learn about when we r just getting started in our painting journey is color temperature. Color temperature is one of the key things to understand inside this big umbrella of color theory. Understanding this will prevent us from creating muddy mixes while mixing colors and help us understand the relationship between colors.To solve the muddy mix problem we will learn to paint a split primary color wheel from scratch, which is an incredibly powerful exercise, even for more advanced artists.Finally, we will understand the 5 common types of Color Schemes – monochromatic, analogous, complementary, triadic & tetradic and why is it essential to plan colors before starting a new painting.Are u ready to learn all these cool color concepts? This class is a mixture of theoretical lectures as well as practical exercises covering all the must-know information and also provides hands-on exercises for you to try on your own. So go ahead and enroll in the course and I’ll see u inside the class.
