Wednesday Mornings with Bea: History of Color
WHAT IS COLOR?
(Isaac Newton)
WHERE DOES COLOR COME FROM?
(animal, vegetal, mineral pigments, to synthetic lab-made colors)
Today we press on a tube and premixed color oozes out. Ready to use
But…
BEFORE THE TUBE…
Bea will give you a brief history of color from Prehistorical times until today, and throughout different cultures too (Mayan, Ancient Egypt, Greco-Roman, the Americas, India, and more)
You will learn about tempera, encaustic, oil, watercolor, acrylic. We think we know it all, but Bea is pretty sure you’ll learn a few things in this fascinating historical, scientifical, technological COLOR JOURNEY!
