Learn how to set up a custom watercolor palette that supports your personal approach to painting. With the help of modern color theory frameworks, learn the what + why behind paint selection to help you make informed color choices and personalize your palette according to your needs. A common dilemma for beginners is not understanding the context behind paint selection and how it relates to our color mixing goals. Often the choices are made based on visual color alone (or charming sounding color names) and the paint recommendations made by more experienced artists. What this often leads to is buying a lot of paints that end up being unused and stored in a collection of ‘someday’ paints—something I know all to well and am guilty of myself! In a way, it is part and parcel of the creative journey and there will be lots of discoveries still to make as you develop as an artist 🙂 If you’re just beginning your watercolor journey, my hope is that this class can help you figure out how to go about choosing your watercolor paints and help you save some money along the way!
