In this course, Richard will help show how gouache can be used as a powerful medium for capturing evocative and atmospheric interpretations of the landscape. A much-misunderstood medium, gouache is perfect for a variety of techniques that help convey a sense of depth and spontaneity. Working from both source material and intuitively, Richard’s techniques focus on placing atmosphere and a sense of place over detail and form.
In this course Richard K. Blades will be exploring the possibilities of using a limited palette to better understand color mixing and its applications in expressive landscape painting. It will help unlock the mysteries of color in a simple but effective process that requires no previous knowledge of color theory. Basing his approach on a three color (plus white) palette, we will be discovering the use of color triads for creating mood and variety within expression.
