Coultermix™ Color System Seminar is taught on DVD

This Seminar on DVD teaches how to work the system.

Included with the DVD are reference guides and color charts.

1.  No more fussing about which red to pull from your paintbox for a project.  The Coultermix™ Color System solves that problem by providing strong flexible pigments.  There's only 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 blue, 1 green. 1 yellow earth, 1 brown to make literally hundreds of custom colors. 

2.  Using 6 beautiful pigments, plus black and white, Linda demonstrates how to make 201 custom colors that range from bright fully saturated intense colors to neutral grays, and from brilliant lights to deep rich darks, and from transparent colors (for glazing) to fully opaque colors (for impasto accents). 

3.  Explore 3 easy methods to soften bright colors, making them fit perfectly in their surroundings.  

4.  When you're ready to start your next art work or craft project, simply "go shopping" in the Coultermix™ Color System color chart to find the perfect custom  colors for your project.

5. Discover how to alter custom colors to make them flow with the natural design of your art project.

6.  Learn how to match your fabrics and wall papers with easy custom colors.  Apply the custom colors to art and crafts to  accessorize your home decor. 

7.  Learn how to convert the colors of nature to match your home decor, yet retain the integrity of realism in your art works. 

8.  Mastering color harmony has never been easier.  Linda will teach you the 10 commandments of Color Harmony  and how to easily apply them with the Coultermix™ Color System.

9.  Learn how to  choose the perfect shadow colors  to create the quality of realism in your hand painted designs.  Shadows are directly related to the type of light source that causes the shadow.

10.  Discover easy ways to  create perfect "neutrals" that are the most powerful agents in your color scheme.  All grays are not created equal.  Neither are the "beiges".  Yet they are the heart and soul of every creative design. 

11.  Learn how to  choose the perfect glazing colors to enhance your art works.  Color glazing has many excellent benefits, as was recognized by the Old Masters who first developed the glazing system.

15.  Discover several exciting ideas to jazz up your home decor with your own hand-painted accessories.  First, learn how to match and understand the colors found in fabrics and wall papers.  Mix the  custom colors, then apply them to your creative designs.  This process is especially easy over grisaille foundations.

16. Linda reveals the secrets of Simultaneous Contrast and the Law of After Images that play such an important roll in mastering color.

17.  No more secrets concealed in the shadows.  You'll learn an EASY way to choose the perfect color for each shadow.

18.  Discover the tremendous power of "neutrals" and the ease of making custom neutrals to unify a composition and give it visual strength.

19. Using the Coultermix™ Color System, you can easily and playfully transform a grisaille  to a full color masterpiece that matches your home decor.

20.  Use the Coultermix™ Color System for oil colors or acrylic colors.  A chart is included for both mediums.

21.  Several reference guides and detailed color charts are included in the Coultermix™ Color System package.

What's the secret?

Any custom color can be made with 2 or 3 pigments.  The secret is choosing the most powerful, clean, clear pigments to start with.  We have chosen those 6 perfect color pigments.
