Five-Day 21st Century Color Intensive
For Artists, Designers and Teachers in All Media
Doors open at 9.  Class runs 9:30 – 4:30.

Smash the rehash! Working well with color requires turning off traditional color theories and learning how to see color with new eyes. Expand your awareness of color across disciplines and explore color as a perception dependent on variables in the light, object, eye and brain.

Each day is focused on a specific topic and includes presentations, demos, and hands-on, eye opening activities exploring the science, humanities, art and design of color .

After five days of engaging color exercises, you will leave with a better understanding of the complexity of color and new tools for exploring your personal colour voice and continuing your explorations of 21st Century Color.

My goal is that you go back to your studio feeling more comfortable with using color intuitively and more willing to use it adventurously. That’s Smashing Color!

That’s Smashing Color!
