Art Class - Mixing Landscape Greens
I have 2 places left in this workshop on Sat. 25th May, from 10am - 12.30pm, cost $95 with all materials provided. It's all about colour mixing and will be of particular interest to landscape painters and those who like to represent the greens of nature in their work. We will focus on creating palettes which work well for foreground, mid distance and distant greens. Green can be a difficult colour to get right in landscape work as is doesn’t ‘travel’ well from near to far. Some very far greens are scarcely green at all, with their saturation, value and hue changing as they recede into the distance. You will learn how to create greens that give this sense of aerial perspective. You will also learn how to create the brightest and cleanest colour mixes, greens in particular, from a Modern (Organic) colour palette.
