Description

Learn to create great landscape paintings by improving your foundational color skills with Ian Roberts!

Mastery of color and color theory understanding are some of the most important skills to have to create successful landscape paintings. In this video workshop, Ian will help you master color to make your paintings stand out in a crowd! Ian will guide you through the use of Color Shapes (simplifying what you see into color blocks on your canvas) and Roadmap of Intentions (carefully planning and executing your composition for a good finished work). You’ll learn how to accurately mix color to achieve the correct hue, value, and intensity to best portray your subject. Once you’ve got the basics down, paint along with Ian as he completes two simple landscape studies step-by-step to put your new painting lessons into practice.

Preview Color: Landscape Painting Techniques for Success now to learn painting tips that will lead the viewer through your painting using color intensity to direct the eye.

To make mastering color easy, Color: Landscape Painting Techniques for Success is broken into these chapters:
