This class explores the full spectrum of color—vibrant and muted, light and dark—while developing strategies to manipulate color effectively for stronger, more compelling paintings. Designed for both abstract and representational painters, this class emphasizes that a deep understanding of color is essential for all artists. While students are encouraged to bring their own painting ideas, guided exercises will provide hands-on practice with the concepts introduced, helping to refine their color skills in a supportive, exploratory environment. Class Level: Intermediate to Advanced. More info: www.jjbruns.com/class-notes/abstract-representation/. Minimum age 14. 9 sessions.
