Class Description - Limited Palette: Ultramarine Blue and Burnt Sienna
December 9 and 16 (2 Sessions)
9:30–11:30am PT / 12:30–2:30pm EST
What can we do with just two colors and white? Over two weeks we'll explore ultramarine blue and burnt sienna, a simple palette that gives us warm earth colors, cool blues, subtle grays, and rich darks. In Week 1 we make a color chart to see how these paints interact, and in Week 2 we use those discoveries in a portrait study. Working with fewer colors lets us look more closely at value and temperature, and how small changes create a sense of light and form. As always, we work through proportion, value, color, and edge, with demonstrations and individual critique.
Open to all levels; some drawing experience is helpful. Demos and critiques are recorded and uploaded within 24 hours, with 2 years of access to all videos.
