It is not often recognized how fundamental the opacity or translucency of pigments are to the structure of a painting and the nuance of color interaction. This is a workshop that begins with monochromatic paintings to explore the differences between opaque and translucent pigments – the characteristic versatility and limits of each. Seeing the limits of a color leads to a methodical choice of a second color to expand those limits. And then a third color, and so on in the building of the harmonic (or dissonant) color structure of a painting. Using Pigment Sticks and various grounds, emphasis will be on the interrelationship between pigment, medium, and surface and how they affect color interaction, color mixing, and composition. While exploring these color relationships, techniques and tips for painting with pigments sticks will be demonstrated.
