Our students had a great two days of learning the principles of colour theory with artist Eolo Paul Bottaro a few weeks ago. Paul provided an insightful and valuable lesson on the history of colour and how painters used their palettes to their advantage. He also demonstrated how hand ground pigments and the careful use of pre-made paints can be handled and applied to great effect.

The theories on colour have enhanced students awareness to the way in which they paint, and the work that they produced within the workshop was remarkable.
