About This Activity
Instructor: Patti Adams In this six-week class, we will explore the fundamental principles of color theory - the science and art of using color. You will make your own color wheel, explore color values and better understand primary, secondary and tertiary colors through a series of in-class exercises and homework assignments. I will be doing demonstrations using a variety of mediums but the main medium we will use is gouache. A supply kit can be purchased online before check out. Prerequisite: None Supplies: A kit containing gouache paints, pencil, eraser, brush and a Bristol pad will be available at checkout and can be picked up on the first day of class ($150) In addition to the kit please bring the following: - scissors - ruler - glass or plastic containers for rinsing your brush, e.g., glass jar or plastic cup - white plastic or ceramic dinner plate to use as a palette; gouache can stain, so bring an old one - paper towels - notebook and pen - drafting or masking tape - other small brushes; you will be advised on what you need during the first class
