Five colors. That’s the whole plan—and it’s more than enough.
This class is all about learning how to actually mix paint on purpose. No mystery, no accidental mud (well… less of it). You’ll get a clear, usable understanding of value, tone, and how to build colors that feel right—not just close enough.
Taught by Erick of Aloof Arts, you’ll also get into what makes a painting last (the real meaning of “archival”) and a breakdown of the oils and mediums you’ll see again and again—what they do, how they behave, and when to use them.
By the end, you’ll be able to take a limited palette and mix your way to just about anything you’re trying to create.
What you’ll learn
• Value + tone (the backbone of good color)
• How to mix clean, intentional colors from a limited palette
• The basics of archival painting (so your work holds up)
• Common oils + mediums and how they actually work
Details
• Saturday, May 30 — 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM
• $60 per person
• Approx. class size: 6 people max
• All supplies included
• Beginner-friendly
