ANDAMENTO LEVEL 4

​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. It is a continuers course designed for student who have completed Level 3 or equivalent. 
Level 4 enables students to consolidate Level 3 Colour Theory knowledge with more complex studies.


We continue to focus on colour as a three dimensional concept implementing knowledge of Value, Hue and Chroma.
Our Palette building is more finely tuned and students can select to integrate larger tesserae and mixed media into their work.

Class Structure

The Level 4 tasks need more time to plan, execute and resolve than earlier levels. 
  • This class runs over 2 terms with 4 monthly classes each 2.5 hours each.
  • Each lesson focuses on one of the studies and the relevant planning drawing and palette preparation. 
  • Progress is submitted for feedback fortnightly​
