Intense Colour Study

I'm really cramping alot of information into my head this week, I guess judging from my own art, there are too many variety of colours everywhere, that most of the time my art piece becomes too chaotic.

So, knowing my weakness, I picked up James Gurney's Colour and Light and finished it, then I went ahead and spent RM200[damn pain] on Richard Robinson's tutorials on Mastering Colour and a few more stuff. Also gone through Gnomon's Color Theory: The Mechanics of Color with Richard Keyes and Practical Light and Color with Jeremy Vickery.

I picked up quite alot here and there, but going through James Gurney's Colour and Light and Richard Robinson's Mastering Colour, they both more or less cover the same topics. Pretty cool stuff, they more or less elaborate alot on the fundamentals[that we often forget/neglect ever so easily], most of their artworks, if not all are done traditionally.

The Mechanics of Colour, Richard Keyes more or less takes us on a joy ride of the many old master's paintings and explains the rationale behind the colours.

Practical Light and Color with Jeremy Vickery leans more towards the digital artists as he explains colour and light with knowledge in both 2D and 3D. Basically he'll be talking about materials, how light reacts, specularity, and etc. Pretty much the basic stuff we need to know.

I'm just itching to start working, I think I need the adrenalin. Feel so restless now.

Did another study / practice.
