Create work that is "Smashing!" by switching from a 2D color wheel to a 3D color model.

Smashing Color Workshops for artists and designers are based on thirty years of teaching students to see and describe color attributes in a variety of color order systems.

With the increasing use of computers, LEDs and digital technologies, it's time to connect the light based and pigment based color systems into one integrated 21st century color system.  With some simple instruction and a bit of practice, it's easy to learn how to use color effectively both on the computer and with traditional media.

"I took Maggie’s very FIRST color class over 25 years ago and have been learning from her ever since. Her work on color is brilliant, revolutionary and downright fun."
