One of the most interesting aspects of painting is color, and that's what we will investigate in this workshop. This is one of my favorite things to teach and I look forward to sharing what I've learned about color over the years as a professional artist. I will tell you how I use a limited palette of warm and cool colors to convey various types of lighting conditions in my painting. It's fascinating and and can be challenging to mix the colors we observe in our reference material, especially all of the wonderful nuances in the colors. The possibilities are almost endless in the colors we can mix. This helps ensure that painting is certainly never boring, whether we're a notice painter or a veteran artist with many years of experience! You will create your own warm and cool color wheels, helpful tools to have for achieving the colors you need in your painting as they apply to the type of light you're working with. I will give you some tried and true methods to help make color mixing easier. We will talk about how to create color harmony in our painting and using more intense color against a foil of more grayed colors to make lovely color relationships. Also we will cover how we use color to create space and atmosphere. These are just some of the interesting parts of how we can use color to make our work stronger.
I look forward to seeing you at the workshop!

Professional New York artist and designer, Bobbi Egan, leads an acrylic pet portrait class at Waterway Art June 6, from 9:30 to 3:30. Bring a color and black and white photo of your furry friend. A 3/4 view with a strong light source is best. She will be discussing how to crop your
picture for best composition, understanding values and shapes, and color mixing to create a realistic 12 x 12 inch portrait.

WAA’s second class with NY artist Bobbi Egan is a still life potpourri. Participants bring an item of their choosing to add to Bobbi’s on-the-spot still life arrangements. Fruits and veggies, flowers and pottery are the classics. But don’t let your imagination stop there. Candles, wine,
silver and crystal; rusty hinges, tools and door knobs; scraps of wallpaper and fabric; books, maps and more can be included. With the addition of a strong light source, prepare to be dazzled with the compositions.
The study will include an in-depth discussion of form and shadows, including the different types of shadows and color temperatures. Artists may work in the medium of their choosing, whether drawing or painting.
