Optical Color Mixing

I’m often asked how I keep my colors vibrant and crisp while building multiple layers. In this class, you’ll learn my approach—optical color mixing—and apply it with both fluid paints and thick impasto. You’ll also explore gels and mediums to create rich layers and texture, making this a two-in-one course on color and surface effects. Adapted from my year-long Classic Library class, Awakening Your Creative Soul, Optical Color Mixing is now available as a standalone course for new followers at a special price. 

Whether you’re beginning your art practice or have decades of experience, this course will introduce a fresh approach to color mixing. Using the paints already in your studio, you’ll create color charts that become valuable references and prompts for new work. Organized into self-paced chapters, the course offers nearly three hours of instruction as you complete several color charts and two finished paintings. 

Originally priced at $75, this course is now available for $30 on Ruzuku with lifetime access. It’s ideal for artists who struggle with muddy colors and includes surface-treatment techniques, composition ideas, collage tips, and more. Follow along step by step or use the lessons to develop your own compositions. As one of my most popular courses, it’s available for a limited time.
