Color Theory

  • 3054 Sunrise Blvd Suite G Rancho Cordova, CA 95742 United States (map)

Our color theory class is a comprehensive foundation class that explores the principles and relationships governing colors in the visual spectrum. A creative combination of both science and art, at its core, color theory seeks to understand how colors interact, combine, and influence human perception, emotions, and artistic expression.

This class will introduce a variety of educational concepts around color theory - each artist will learn, mix, and understand the relationships of the three primary colors (red, blue, and yellow), their secondary and tertiary combinations, as well as the concepts of shades and tints.

Color mixing involves blending different hues to create new colors or achieve specific visual effects. This process is fundamental in painting, graphic design, and various visual arts, as different hues can evoke various emotions and associations in individuals.

Understanding color theory empowers artists, designers, and anyone working with visual elements to make informed decisions about color palettes, create captivating compositions, and effectively communicate messages through their work. This class is highly recommended for every artist to truly deepen their creative processes in a well-rounded and meaningful way!
