Unlocking Color Theory: Powerful Watercolor Painting Exercises with Secondary Colors

Secondary colours orange, green, and violet hold a special kind of magic. In this class, we’ll explore how these three expressive hues can form the backbone of stunning, harmonious watercolour paintings. Whether you’re just beginning your journey with colour or looking to deepen your understanding, this class offers a creative and practical approach to mastering secondary colour relationships.  We’ll begin with a series of hands on exercises, mixing swatches, experimenting with pigment pairings, and exploring colour triangles and wheels to visualise balance and contrast. Then, we’ll put everything into practice with a final project: a striking rose painted entirely using orange, green, and violet. You’ll see how much depth, atmosphere, and visual interest can be achieved with a limited palette.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

• Use secondary colours to create striking, expressive compositions
• Mix and combine pigments for maximum harmony and contrast
• Apply colour theory in a visual, hands on way through simple exercises
• Create a full painting using only secondary colours, building confidence in limited palette work

This is more than just a theory class, it’s a creative exploration that will sharpen your eye, push your creativity, and open up new ways of thinking about colour. Whether you’re painting along or just soaking in the knowledge, this class is designed to make colour theory practical, inspiring, and fun.
