Understanding Tonal Values in Painting
October 8
Saturday
1:00 pm - 5:30 pm

It’s common for us to focus on color when we paint: We are in love with color – after all this is why we paint. Yet, what makes or breaks a painting is not the color but how accurately we capture the range of lights and darks. Without a good tonal range our painting is flat.
In this 4,5 hour workshop we will solidify our understanding of tonal value and the relationship between value and color by going through a series of exercises and painting in gray tones our final project.
