Get colourful
Juliet Docherty’s colour workshop 1 was a revelation. Being an abstract artist on the side with training limited to ‘O’ level, I’ve been using colours intuitively and ready mixed. Of course, I’d always heard you could mix an infinite amount of colours from the primaries but having hot and cold primaries, creating violet, and having white on the side to impact on tone, offered so many insights on how great painters paint. I also now know what saturation means, understand the concept of tone, and know hue just means colour. I have yet to create my own palette and work with it. Hello Christmas holidays for that piece of exploration. I’d highly recommend the day’s workshop with Juliet.
