Illustration Masterclass - Using Colour for Effective Storytelling

Are you overwhelmed by the rules of the colour wheel? Tired of sticking to the same set of colours to avoid the endless options? Disappointed with the way your colours are printing after working hard on your previously vivid illustrations?  Then this is the Masterclass for you! 

Join master colourist Rekha Salin in an insightful session that will expand your concepts of colour storytelling. Improve your narrative with a simple way of understanding how colours convey emotion. You will explore colour harmony, mood, and emotional storytelling; learn how to build a palette according to the narrative and your character's personality; and understand the differences between RGB and CMYK, including how and when to use them!

WHAT WILL YOU NEED FOR THIS MASTERCLASS

If you work digitally, then bring along the digital tools you use (tablet, stylus, and others)

If you work traditionally then any media in colour and some paper is good!

If you are here just to learn and have fun, then just bring yourself and positive energy

We'll have a half an hour break mid session.
