VIRTUAL WORKSHOP Color 2: A Workshop for Artists and Designers Continued

Apr 18 - 29, 2022

Monday, Wednesday & Friday, 1-4PM MST

Concept

This second installment of David Hornung’s color class is for students who have taken his first workshop and would like to go deeper. In Color 2 we explore the development of color interrelationships through a variety of mixing strategies and conduct color research into natural and manufactured sources. We also examine specific color applications like progression and the illusion of transparency and study the way color works with shape to create spatial hierarchy in a two-dimensional image. As with the previous class, meetings are on alternate days (MWF) which allows ample time to complete assignments. The materials list is identical to that of Color 1, linked below.

The prerequisite for this workshop is David Hornung’s class, Color: A Workshop for Artists and Designers, click here for details.
