Masterclass in Colour

A Colouring Workbook of Techniques and Inspiration

Meriel Thurstan & Rosie Martin

Description

Masterclass in Colour offers readers ways to take their colouring to a new level and even start on the road to watercolour work.

The authors explain simple colour theory in an easy-to-understand language explaining which colours look good together and demonstrating how colours can vibrate together or make each other more muted. They explain the materials of coloured pencils, water-soluble coloured pencils and fibre pens (felt tips) and how to mix colours together in all three media.

The book is arranged by colour, with sections on red, yellow, blue, green, orange, purple, pink and finally greys and browns, including a brief description of each and examples of what you can add to it to make secondary colours. There are demonstrations to show how to master shadows, texture and pattern, highlights and even water droplets. Each page of techniques and demonstration is followed by a companion page for you to practice the technique and do your own experimenting.
