About The Course:

This course takes you further down the road of color theory. Once again, loaded with content and Projects for you to play with, this course provides inspiration and sparks creativity to get you looking at color in new ways. We also look at the relativity of color and why it can be so darned confusing. If you’ve been ’color-confused’ in the past, find out why!  Join me on this fun and winding road looking at the following concepts:

  • CLASS 1 – COLOR AND LIGHT

  • CLASS 2 – DECEPTION OF COLOR

  • CLASS 3 – NEUTRALS AND MUD

  • CLASS 4 – LIMITED PALETTES AND TRIADS

  • CLASS 5 – BREAKING THE RULES

As I demonstrate the color Projects, I also talk about my approaches to painting and various techniques that I use in my own work. I encourage everyone to focus on subject matter that interests them: Abstract, Still Life, Landscape Figurative, etc, are ALL welcome! This class is for painters who have some experience using their mediums. My focus is on oil and acrylic paint.

You do not need to take Own Your Colors Part One to participate in Part Two.

FORMAT

This eCourse is made up of five classes.  Classes have slide-shows, video demonstrations, inspirational photos and links, and engaging Projects (assignments) that can be created in different and multiple ways depending on your skill level.  All content is available on one page on the first day of the eCourse for you to study at your own pace and in your own time zone.

"CLOTHESLINE" DEMO BY M. COOTSONA

I would just like to thank you for this amazing course you have created, I have learnt so much and am so fired up and wanting to paint! You have clarified a lot of things for me and you are right when you say you need to paint to understand colour...reading about it just doesn’t compare.

I’ve learned so much from this class, Melinda. In your lessons, you’ve taken a challenging subject, wrapped it in clear, focused text and video demos. You’ve also added warmth, humor, and a rich variety of visual examples. Your knowledge of painting and of technology, and your generosity and hard work, have all been major pieces in the success of this class. THANK YOU, MELINDA!
