In this series, instructor Bill Perkins brings you his crash course on color theory and practice. This second lesson in the series will focus on saturation. Bill will begin with a brief lecture on how to identify saturation ranges within high and low key set-ups, and then it’s time to get to work: You will be shown a series of 4 different images throughout the lesson, each with a different color set-up, and you will have 30 minutes to complete a painting of each. Following each painting, you will see how Bill approaches the the same assignment, allowing you to compare your work with his.
