Don’t tell anyone…but this is color theory in disguise! Featuring a Cathedral Window, a Chicken, and Three Primary Colors.

After reading hundreds of books on color theory and painting enough color studies to turn her blue (Prussian blue, to be exact), Miriam accidentally stumbled upon a surprisingly simple, almost foolproof way to understand color.

Using three primary watercolors, a black pen, a cathedral window stencil, a chicken, and a wildly active imagination, students will explore how colors play against each other, how they mix and mingle, and how they can either crow out loud or dance together in perfect harmony without boring us to death.

Along the way, you'll discover how to create an amazing range of colors from just three, why some combinations sing while others squawk, and how to make color choices that bring your paintings to life.
