LAB

Free-Study – Simultaneous Contrast

  • Using your box-o-scraps and/or gouache paint create a 9×12″ or larger composition of your choice that demonstrates the concepts we covered in our Color Interaction Studies.
  • Using the color interaction pairings as  guide, try to give specific colors at least two different identities throughout your compositions by exploring shifts in value, hue and temperature.
  • Use your own forms of expression and experiment with process: collage, stippling, tearing, cutting, direct painting, taping, stenciling, blotting.
  • As will previous free-studies, research, thumbnails, color tests, consideration of overall compositional balance between figure and ground, unity, and communication of a clear concept or theme is important!
