Painting with a Chromatic Workshop

David Lussier

This workshop will introduce you to my Chromatic Palette and to a few tried and true color palettes that can be used from within this basic set of colors. These are some of the same palettes that Henri, Bellows and Sloan went to great depths to explore with amazing results. As we explore these palettes, I will outline how to make them and how to use them effectively. You will walk away with a newfound understanding of how efficiently color can be used and how fun interpreting color can be!

Wood Relief Carving Workshop
Level: Beginner/ Intermediate

In this workshop students will learn the basics of designing, carving, and printing wooden relief blocks, including going over the difference of using wood vs. linoleum in relief printing. Wood is a more difficult material to carve, so this class is recommended for people with some previous experience carving, but beginners are welcome as well!
For those who are more experienced there will be the option of experimenting with different mediums for printing. The instructor will provide the materials, and asks that you pay a material fee the day of the workshop.
