Confident Color: Mixing Brights & Neutrals Judy Vilmain

Maybe you are tired of your paintings looking muddy, and could use some help with color mixing, or maybe you need a push to use color in a more creative way.
This workshop will cover just enough Color Theory to help you mix clean, brilliant colors as well as beautiful neutrals — no more muddy mixtures or too-garish colors. You CAN learn to mix the color you want every time!

We will cover the benefits of working with a Double-Primary Palette, and you will get lots of practice mixing and matching colors. You’ll explore Complementary Colors and all the luscious chromatic grays you can achieve with them. We will cover how to mix shadow colors easily. And you’ll learn to mix a wide variety of your own rich darks. On the final afternoon you will paint an ode to your favorite pair of colors.

This workshop is open to representational painters working in any medium, from advanced beginners and up.
