Friday July 16 - Sunday July 18, 2010 10:00am-4:00pm $240

Join nationally renowned Portland artist Jennifer Diehl for a workshop focusing on the ongoing journey of color study. Plunge headfirst into the great depths of color theory and the practice of color mixing exploration in this hands-on class. The goal of this class is the study of a practical way of thinking about discovery and invention in color. You will acquire techniques to fulfill your desire of color that will eventually become fluid and subconscious. With discovery of the colors we are using on our palette, the individual pigments, transparency and opacity, there will be an emphasis placed on identifying the value, intensity and temperature of color along with mixing techniques and exploring various effects.
