Stop painting surfaces. Start painting light.
Most painters struggle with “flat” results because they treat color as a formula rather than a physical reaction. The Light & Color Workshop is a deep-dive masterclass into the mechanics of atmosphere, drama, and 3D form.
Whether you’re a hobbyist or a dedicated miniature artist, this 6-hour intensive—held at Maker’s Academy—will fundamentally change how you see your palette and your subject.
The Curriculum of Contrast
- Behavior of Light: Gain a deep understanding of how light interacts with sculptural forms.
- Local vs. Material Color: Learn why a red cloak isn’t just red, and how to mix colors that reflect environmental lighting.
- Shadow & Variation: Learn to see and paint the subtle shifts in light and shadow that bring a figure to life.
- Reference Translation: Master the skill of using real-world lighting references to create believable, heightened drama on your miniatures.
WHAT’s Included
- A professional figure bust (yours to keep!)
- Essential paint sets provided for use.
- 6 hours of intensive, small-group instruction.
