Color Theory:
What is covered, in demonstration and lecture form
(You do not have to paint along, and there will be no critiques):
- Creating usable Gray Scale & Color Wheel Models for your own study and testing
- Understanding Values (Dark to Light) and how they relate to Hue
- Understanding and Utilizing the Color Wheel:
- Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Colors of the simplest wheel model and how they relate to the paints in your box.
- Mixing compliments for expected results
- Understanding the roles of black and white pigments in your mixes
- Proper darkening and lightening of hues
- Obtaining controlable grays
- Color Temperature
- Avoiding "muddy" paintings
- Understanding color temperature in shadow vs. light.
- The Principles of Neutrals
- Artistic Browns or "Grays"
- Skin tones, starting-point mixes
- A discussion of Color Terminology and what each means in the color world (saturation, hue, shade, tint, value, intensity, "killed" hue, complementary, etc.)
These subjects and application will be discussed on camera as Dave mixes and applies oil paint from his standard palette on a color wheel, a value chart, drawing comparisons with color straight from the tube and how to mix to achieve the colors you want.

May I pay for the workshop and view the recordings later?
Yes, but there are caveats. For example, you will miss the chatroom participation and the opportunity to ask questions.
It has been brought to my attention that under certain physical conditions an attendee may not be able to handle x-number of hours in a row. If you purchase the 3-hour workshop, you will be given subsequently the password to the area where you can watch all the videos as often as you like. You will get the full course, including my public critiques (which are optional).
If you will be involved in the workshop only partially, please let me know so that I might offer an additional spot to a full-course attendee as well.
