Hi, I'm Ron Moby, and I'm an artist. I've spent the last 35 years being an artist. I don't know if I was born an artist, but I certainly became one. And I'm glad I did. Along the way, I've learned a number of things. And I'd like to show you some of those today.

One of them being, how to use color, and how to use it, not correctly, but effectively, how to use color and really make it do what you want it to do. Well, welcome to another class. This one is a watercolor class. And it's going to be bold colors. And the reason why we want bold colors is because we want to see how far can we push color? How can we make it saying, How can we make it stand out and be absolutely amazing.

There's a few tricks you're going to learn today that will help you along the way. If you've been paid. muddy pictures, and your pictures don't seem to look lively, or as we say in the business tasty. This is a class for you. It's for beginners, intermediate, and advanced. And I'll tell you why.

We all need to refresh our ideas of how to handle color. I've been using these color ideas in big pictures in abstracts, non objective art, landscapes, portraits, all these ideas can be applied to any of the disciplines and any of the subject matter in art, always been fascinated with color. And I know that I've had times when color was really a challenge. I was stuck in a rut. We all get like that. If you line up all your pictures, you'll probably notice that most of your pictures have the same color choices.

So today, I'm going to let you explore with me at least two ways of increasing your ability to use color intelligently. The materials for this class are not complicated. Choose three colors are red, yellow and blue. Choose a brush. I use 140 pound watercolor paper simply because it's durable and it has two sides. So if it doesn't work on one side, you can use the other side water paper towel something to mix on.

And most important, I want you to realize that there are different kinds of blues and yellows and reds. I would suggest for today, you use a cadmium red and cadmium yellow and a fellow blue. Also add a cobalt blue and analyser in Crimson You will definitely come out of this class with an enhanced color sense. You'll be able to choose colors intelligently and use them effectively. So join me in the class and let's get started.
