Mini Evening Workshops
Portrait Painting with Erin
Using no earth tones, yellows or blues, Erin will teach the portrait and share how she achieves a full range of color through optical mixing and how to find nuance and neutrals using potent colors such as phthalo green and dioxazine violet.
Inside/Outside with Matt
Matt will teach the idea of "Inside, Outside." By formulating two primary zones, a painter can achieve a complex painting with a believable sense of light.
