1-Day Color Concepts Workshop with Nathan Fowkes on February 11th!

“The use of color is critically important for the working artist, well designed color can make your work powerfully compelling and will reach your audience at an emotional level that moves them. That will be our topic of study for this year’s Color Workshop on Saturday, February 11, 12-8pm. So whether you’re a landscape painter, figurative or entertainment artist, if you’re in the LA area I’d love to see you there.” – Nathan Fowkes

Here’s what we’ll cover:
The fundamentals of color theory for painters (traditional and digital).
The emotional impact of color and lighting to create mood and environment.
Principles for organizing the complexities of color into pleasing harmonies.
Strategies for solving color problems quickly and effectively.
Color exploration exercises.
Painting from a costumed model in a theatrical, colored light environment.

Head Drawing with Rey Bustos – January 13th
In this class, students will learn how to quickly block in the general features of the head and neck. Through analysis and lectures of the skull and muscles of the head and neck, students will gain knowledge that will better their drawing, painting, and or sculpting skills. Through moderate-length poses, no more than an hour, each student will be able to more economically draw out the features of a specific likeness or a general representation of the human head. Each student will be asked to compile reference from classical art or even personal photographs.
