In this workshop, artist Lauren Florence will walk you through a variety of color charts: a simple matrix, a value chart, a circle, and a parent color chart. Class discussion will cover the benefits of each chart, the benefits of creating your own charts for quick reference in your studio, and the benefits of painting with a limited palette. Chart templates will be provided and you will work on completing them in class.
