Do your colors often turn out muddy, chalky, or flat? Do they look great on your mixing palette but dull on canvas? Have you ever felt terrified to scrape away a color because you weren't confident you could mix it again?
You're not alone. Achieving rich, luminous colors that dance against each other is the stuff of painters' dreams, but it's not easy without a process. We see the color in our mind, but how do we mix and apply it in harmony with the rest of the painting?
The answer is color relativity. By realizing that a color only appears a certain way because of the color next to it, you unlock a whole new world. No color stands alone, whether in real life or on canvas.
In this book, master painter Kami Mendlik distills color relativity into a simple, yet transformative, step-by-step strategy that will imbue your paintings with radiant light and atmosphere.
You'll learn how to:
Say goodbye to fear, confusion, and frustration when it comes to color. By applying Kami's unique strategy for both seeing and mixing any color, you'll soon be able to paint color relativity with confidence and bring your paintings to life.
