Working the Booms

 

with Marjorie Turnbull 
 

June 27-July 1, 2011

Colour is often the first thing that catches your eye in a painting.  In this class we will explore colour, the relationship of colours, one to each other, its temperature and value.  Using colour, we will try to paint the ordinary in an extra-ordinary way. 

There are three things that you see when you look at a painting – Colour, Image and Composition.  Colour is one of the first things that catch your eye, so let’s talk colour and paint!

Marjorie will talk about different colour relationships, their temperatures, and how they mix.  She will also explain and demonstrate Low and High Key paintings.

Colour can be wonderful, but sometime it can be very frustrating.  Why didn’t a particular colour work?  What colour should I use?  Marjorie will start each session with a short lecture, and demo demonstrate with a small painting. Students may work on some slightly larger pieces outdoors, if the weather permits. All this will lead up to a larger painting, using all the information learned during the workshop.

Marjorie is very good at working with students and seeing where they are and where they need to go. She will demonstrate in oil and acrylic, but any medium with colour may be used.

Price $595 includes 5 days instruction, delicious lunches each day, and unlimited studio time.
