This LIVE online class is designed for students who want to integrate more sophisticated colour understanding into their mosaic to support their use of andamento.
In this class we focus on understanding colour as a three dimensional concept and complete specific exercises to implement knowledge of Value, Hue and Chroma. Using the Munsell Colour system students learn to understand colour in a whole new way and gain skills in manipulating the key elements intentionally in their work. Each lesson begins with a theory presentation. This is followed by the demonstration and practice of a particular technical skill which is consolidated in a sample. In addition to this level 3 includes three studies which integrate skills learnt in Levels 1, 2 and 3. Each lesson focuses on one of the aspects of colour theory as well as introduces the relevant planning drawing and palette preparation for the studies.
UNIT 1 Theory: The Munsell Colour Tree Sample: Value Scale Integration: Greyscale Sphere Study UNIT 2 Theory: Tints and Shades Sample: One Hue Value Gradation Integration: Lemon Study UNIT 3 Theory: Harmonious Blend Sample: Two Hues Blend & Gradation Integration: Harmonious Pear UNIT 4 Theory: Complimentary Hues Samples:Complimentary Hues Blend and Gradation Integration: Complimentary Fig Study We will learn about each technique in four ways. 1. Theory: Looking at mosaic examples. 2. Drawing: Building visual grammar. 3. Making: Consolidating in small physical samples. 4. Integration: Bring techniques together with in more complex mosaic tasks which combine colour theory and andamento. Allow significant time for homework following each lesson. The class samples are easier and quick to complete. The studies take more sustained focus. Homework is uploaded to Google Classroom where written feedback is provided on each task. What's Included
1. 12 hours of live tuition. 2. Printable PDF resources for each task. 3. Access to lesson recordings during the course. 4. Written feedback on each task. 5. Extras recordings, tips, tricks, links. 6. Access to our Private FB Group. 7. Access to Hepworth Studios Members Area |

Which Level to Take?
Which Level to take - 1, 2 or 3? I have found that in general people find Level 1 the best place to start. It's harder than you think!
If in doubt you can CONTACT ME with some images of your work and I will suggest what may be suitable.

Although I enjoy face to face learning, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed online classes. I was able to get more work completed online because students learn techniques together as a group, and we are able to watch Caitlin draw, cut and place materials as we work "alongside" her. I also enjoy being able to connect with students who I would not normally have the chance to interact with due to distance.'

The Level 3 class (Previously Advanced Techniques) was a revelation about what is possible.
It is a well-constructed course that guides one step by step, into modern mosaic methods, making one incredibly aware about how every cut and every decision matters. I recommend it highly.
