May 1 Planning a painting 1. Values
Planning the design of a painting is half the battle. I will demonstrate using cropping, value contrast and selectivity to enhance your design. Bring a sketchbook, 2B drawing pencils and eraser, and a few photographs to work from.
May 8 Planning a painting 2. Color
Colors have value (compare red and yellow). Use color to complement your value scheme. Full strength red, blue, purple and green are useful in dark areas. Dilute colors, yellow and orange are useful for light values. Create color harmony in a painting by using mostly warm or mostly cool colors. Bring a value sketch or photo to work from and your watercolors.
