What's in Premium?

I will show you exactly how light dictates the color temperatures in your paintings. We focus on sunlight and shadows to see how direct light forces all the colors it hits toward a specific warm hue. Then we look at the shadow family. Shadows are free from this direct light. They shift toward cooler hues and give you much more freedom with your color choices.

I walk you through practical exercises using reference photos to build warm and cool color charts. You will learn how to track both hue and saturation shifts between light and shadow. This helps you stop relying on local color and start painting realistic lighting environments.
