Want to know why Van Gogh, Cezanne and Monet's paintings are so famous and well loved? Want to make your artwork sing like theirs? In this eight week class, instructor Rachel Crawford will let you in on one of their secrets... COLOR! 
This Color Theory class will explore the theory, history and perception of color through hands-on color mixing and painting. Students will create a variety of color wheels and each week, will create a small painting applying color mixing theory using the various color wheel relationships to learn color harmony, contrast, and value. We will explore how colors affect us and how the we perceive color. This class will also cover the principles of design, the elements of art, and the Divine Proportion when planning out the small painting designs.
Each week there will be lecture and discussion, a little class work and homework.
The FIRST TWO classes will be three hours long from 10am-1pm. The rest of the classes will be TWO hours long from 10am-Noon.
