It is hoped by the end of the workshop, you will have a grasp of the difference between primary, secondary and tertiary colours and an understanding of how to create tints, shades and tones of colour.
Students will be given a short list of materials and equipment to bring along to the workshop. Your tutor will have a small selection of acrylic paints and brushes available for use on the day.
This workshop is suitable for both beginners and those who need a deeper understanding of colour and colour mixing to support their artistic endeavours.
