Color Composition Workshop with Robert Henry

A three day workshop focusing on the use of color in composing paintings. This will include: creating the illusion of space with color; examining the qualities of light and shade; and the expressive and decorative use of color.

Using gouache paint, acrylic, or oil we will concentrate on the use of color either as an abstract element in itself, or as part of a figurative, still life or landscape composition. The paintings will start with color ideas rather than from a model or motif.
Materials and sizes at the artists' discretion, ie. paper or panels depending upon the media used.

Robert Henry's numerous one-person exhibitions include the Cortland Jessup Gallery and Barbara Inger Gallery in New York, the Janus Avivson Gallery in London, and the Berta Walker Gallery in Provincetown. His work hangs in the permanent collections of Brooklyn College, the Cape Cod Museum of Art, Columbia University, Pace University, and many others. He is Professor Emeritus at Brooklyn College.
