Student Review

“Having attended the course I realise how valuable it has been and my total ignorance about colours … now overcome. A very well structured course presented with sensitivity and obvious professional knowledge.” My course highlight was “the development of colours from a very basic palette.”

Course Structure

Introduction to the Colour Wheel

We will learn more about the Colour Wheel and discover why it is a useful tool to help you develop your knowledge and skills around colour mixing

Exploring hues, tints and tones

We will explore the colours we can create by extending our Hue colours to create tints and shades through practical exercises and a creative mini-project

Colour Spectrums

A creative mini-project to learn how an effective use of warm and cool colour spectrums will help control depth and space in your paintings.

Harmonies in colour

Further develop the Colour Wheel to include chromatic complimentary colours to create beautiful ranges of harmonious subtle colours

Colour Palette thinking

We will take time to consider different colour palette choices to help you understand how your colour choices may change and shift to enable you to better achieve the results you want in your own paintings

Colour Stories

A creative project to give you an extended time to put the practical exercises to good use with time to reinforce, explore, experiment, and most importantly ask questions from the tutor.

By the end of the workshop…

You will leave with a strong foundation in practical colour mixing and be able to mix colour more effectively and confidently knowing your colour mixing is guided by a systematic technique you can rely on time and again.

This is what our students have to say

“Attending this workshop has helped me to unlock my previous confusion about colour theory and the mixing of colours. It was really informative and has given me a basis on which to build going into future projects as I feel a lot more confident and knowledgeable.” My course highlight was “the structure of the course – being taken through the basics bit by bit which helps me to understand the subject.”
Maria M

“An excellent course, informal and very informative – an investment for your artwork, whatever level you are. I have a greater understanding of how to create and use colour in painting and art in general.” My course highlight was the “opportunity to be more focused on the subject.”
