Block In Bootcamp, Blocking In Color

Behind any solid improvisation, there’s always some kind of structure holding it up—something that makes sure that the performance doesn't run off the rails.
In the last lesson, we blocked in values with that in mind: working quickly, simply, and with a clear sense of shape and proportion. This time we’re doing the same thing with color. We’ll keep the palette simple, and the brushwork loose and bold—just enough to set things up clearly without getting precious about it. The point isn’t to make it perfect. It’s to get something strong and readable down fast.
What you will need: a few of your favorite brushes, a bit of Liquin or linseed oil, paper towels and a palette of colours. I use lead white (you can use titanium), Old Holland yellow brown, terra rosa or vermillion, raw umber or warm sepia, and ivory black. Pretty much a Zorn palette.
