Art & Ale Acrylic Class Jan. and Feb. 2018

We began this painting with a single color (I used ultramarine blue).  We painted in the values and textures.   We used very wet acrylic paint.  The color of this photo is not correct due to being taken inside in very warm light.    

We discussed color mixing and the 6 color warm/cool color mixing color wheel (see below).  Then I mixed some gray and brown and started painting the trees and road.  I mixed some green for the grass. In the next class we will work on the mountains and sky, refine the entire landscape and start on adding the truck.

6 color warm/cool color mixing color wheel.  The colors displayed here will not be true to the color of the original.  The letters correspond to - warm yellow, cool yellow, warm red, cool red, green blue, purple blue.
