Description

In the 25th anniversary edition of Making Color Sing, Jeanne Dobie teaches you new how you can take into accounts color and make it be just right for you, through 31 clear, easy-to-follow exercises. No color exists in isolation; colors are all the time interacting with one another. As this nationally recognized creator explains, understanding color relationships is the key to successful painting.

Have you learnt how to use the push and pull of warm and cool colors to create a feeling of space? Are you able to generate exciting vibrations through the interplay of complements? Have you ever considered disguising one color in a scene to accent another color? These kind of possibilities—and more—are discussed and clarified with illustrations.

The lessons on color lead into another essential painting consideration: composition and design. Painting is a lot more than copying what you see. It involves finding a structure that permits you to organize and thus communicate your impressions and reactions. Dobie encourages artists to experiment with different arrangements of shapes and values to build a dynamic foundation in their paintings. This manual stimulates new how you can take into accounts colour, generating responses that unlock personal creativity and allow artists to express themselves with paint.
