This is a one-day workshop born from the enthusiasm and success of our previous colour mixing masterclass. As artists, we know that understanding our palette is crucial, yet the process of creating comprehensive colour charts can be time-consuming.
This workshop offers a unique opportunity to dedicate an entire day to this essential practice. In a supportive and enjoyable atmosphere, we'll come together to create as many colour charts as possible.
Why are colour charts so important?
When you create these charts, you'll discover more about your paints than you ever thought possible.
Join us for this intensive yet fun-filled day of exploration and learning.
