Drawing-Color
Painting is an excellent form of expression that allows us to communicate emotions, ideas, and stories with the stroke of a brush. Whether you are drawn to landscapes, portraits, still lives, or abstract concepts, there is a world of possibilities waiting for you on the canvas. Whether you are a beginner eager to explore the world of painting or an experienced artist looking to enhance your skills, our program offers an inspiring and nurturing environment for all levels of expertise.
We will start by establishing a strong foundation, focusing first on drawing without color, as painting is an extension of drawing, and a painting without drawing is inherently more limited. At this stage, we will concentrate on practicing gesture, proportions, and composition-space management.
Once we gain some confidence in these areas, we will introduce color into the equation. Colors form an organized, structured set, and we will explore their connections and differences by addressing questions such as: What are the properties of color? What are the primary and complementary colors? How is color harmony achieved? How do we create chiaroscuro with color? The most fundamental principle to remember is that each color depends on the environment it is in. Therefore, it is always examined in relation to the colors around it and not in isolation. We will use water-soluble paints: acrylics and watercolors.
If you are ready to embark on an inspiring journey of drawings, colors, and creativity, enroll in our painting program today and unlock the artist within you!
