You can have extraordinary color in your artwork. In Exploring Color Workshops, learn basic color principles and characteristics of paint, including color mixing and compatible harmony pigments. Confident Color classes may include color schemes, color and light, color contrasts, expanded palettes and/or color design. Learn to use color inventively and expressively in your paintings. Work from your own sketches, setups and photos. Projects are based on Exploring Color, Confident Color, and on the Nita Leland ™ Color Scheme Selector.
