Try Color Field Painting | What is Color Field Painting

Check out this color field painting technique and learn the theory behind color field painting. It’s not as easy as it looks at first glance. But I love a challenge so I’m giving it a try.

I’m taking an online course on “color field painting”. The object of the game is to convey movement and emotion with flat planes of color.

Painting flat panes of color requires very little technical skill – right? We were all able to do that the first time we picked up a brush and dipped it in to a pot of paint – way back in pre-school.

But placing the colors next to each other in such a way that they move the eye around the painting and evoke emotion – how to do that is still a bit of a mystery to me.

I’m working on it.

I started by painting various shades of red onto sheets of freezer paper. Then I cut the papers into strips and arranged and rearranged and rearranged and, well you get the idea.

I ended up with something I think looks nice, but the movement and emotion – I’m not sure. Maybe you’d have more luck than I have. If you give it a try, I’d love to see what you come up with.

I have a few more ideas about arranging these same colors – I’ll show you next week. And then I’ll move on to using a variety of colors – we’ll see what happens.

I do love a challenge.
