Manipulating Color

 

Last week in Modern Painting we explored ways to manipulate color to make our paintings more
exciting and expressive;
specifically using limited pallets.
We worked on using:
a: complementary colors
b: one dominant color family
c: mostly neutrals with spots of vibrant color.
We used black and white images as references
so we had to make up the colors.
Below are a few examples of the work done:

Complementary colors; purple and yellows.

Dominant color family. (green)

Mostly neutrals surrounding pops of color.
It is so inspiring to be working with such talented
and enthusiastic artists.
And in person!
