Workshop: Color Confidence
Dates: November 4-8, 2026
Instructor: Liz Murphy
Hours: 9am - 5pm
Level: All
Class Size: 12
Tuition: $1800
Includes: Complimentary lunches and drinks served daily in studio
This five day workshop is a deep, immersive exploration of color as a living, responsive language within your work.
Over the course of the five days, we will move beyond surface color choices and into a more intentional, informed, and intuitive relationship with color. Through guided exercises, demonstrations, and group discussion, artists will explore how color functions
structurally, emotionally, and spatially within a painting.
The workshop is designed to support artists at their individual level. Some may arrive wanting clarity and confidence in color decisions, others looking to break habitual patterns or deepen sensitivity and range. The focus is not on formulas, but on developing discernment, so you can better recognize what your work is asking for and respond with clarity.
By the end of the five days, artists leave with a clearer understanding of how color operates within their work, stronger decision making tools, and a renewed sense of trust in their own visual instincts.
Day 1: The Energy of Color: It’s Meaning and Personal Aesthetic
Day 2: Expanding Color Vocabulary
Day 3: Contrast and Value
Day 4: Palette and Intentional Application
Day 5: Integration
