Evelyn Dunphy Watercolor October 1, 2 and 3, 2017 10am-4pm Exploration of Color!

IMAGE ~ AUGUST 3, 2017 ~ 11PIRATES ~

This workshop will be an exploration of color and how we may broaden our understanding of its use in bringing our concepts into reality. Each painting deserves its own palette. We want to understand what color can do, what it does sometimes without our conscious decision about it, and how by understanding some of the interactions between colors, we can use that power to make our paintings more alive, and especially, more unique. No one else will make the same decisions or mixtures that you do. We can all learn the same notes, but the song won’t be the same when I sing it as it will when you do.www.evelyndunphy.com Register here http://www.nsarts.org
