Aurora Spain o The History of Pigment & Successful Colour Mixing 7.9.2016



Virginia Water Art Society welcomed Aurora Spain this evening to talk to us about the History of Pigment and Successful Colour Mixing from early cave painting with organic colours up to the present day using synthetic colours. Talking about the origins of colours used by some of the old masters and explaining their failings and eventual demise and substitution by modern day pigments.  Also talking about todays colour mixing and the many variations and hues obtainable using a limited pallett.  The members of VWAS enjoyed the the very informative talk.  Thank you Aurora
