Make ANY color with: red, yellow and blue.


Did you know that you can make ANY COLOR in the world with Red, Blue and Yellow paint? We started class with a color challenge. Each person got a painting palette with these three colors and had to match the colors of an object from yesterday's still life. Marc learned how to make light purple by adding more red to his mauve-brown. Brittney Spence made an apple-green using white, yellow and a touch of blue.

Each person had to draw an object from yesterday's still life twice on the same piece of paper.

Above: Levon is drawing a bunch of flowers. She made some beautiful renderings of these flowers, by adding white to her red mixture to make a light pink.





We also had each half of the class model with their objects. Everyone had to hold their pose for ten minutes. Some of the paintings were still drying at the end of class we didn't get any pictures but a lot of people did EXCELLENT work and really thought about COLOR THEORY.
