2018 AMERICAN MOSAIC SUMMIT Boston, MA
Understanding and Using Color Tone in Mosaic with Carrie Fradkin
Session 8A: Wednesday, March 14th, 2018, 1:00pm – 5:00pm
Session 8B: Wednesday, March 14th, 2018, 6:00pm – 10:00pm
Hands-On • All Levels
Price: $245.00 (Includes $50.00 Materials Fee)
Color tone, value, intensity, shade, hue, tint. . .
What does it all mean in mosaic and how can we understand and use this knowledge to enhance our own mosaic design and creation?
You will create simple unattached combinations of tesserae (your own and supplied) and see how understanding tone can enhance your mosaic. We will use a mobile smartphone or iPad to explore and “see” tone in tesserae. You will take photos of your experiments and be able to compare and make informed decisions based on your color choices and new learning. This information will change how you think about the color choices you make in your work.
There will be a short lecture and slide presentation of concepts and then we will dive right into hands-on studies/experimentations. There will be a group and individual discussion. You will leave with several documented (photos) designs and small tone samples you can keep for reference. Handouts and suggestions for further experimentation will be supplied. This session should particularly benefit those who don’t understand how color works in mosaic and those that do understand but want to explore the concepts further.
