Syllabus:

Deals with colour and materials as a 'language', colours, textures, surface qualities and patterns, in themselves and in combination, can communicate facts, ideas and feelings. The program is organised under three headings - awareness, understanding and control. Students look closely at colours and materials to become more aware of subtle differences and relationships, and they produce compositions to communicate specific meanings. Basic principles are introduced through informal lectures and demonstrations. Students are introduced to the natural colour system and the colour image scale which provides frameworks for understanding. Students receive notes and explanatory colour diagrams. Many of the exercises are designed to illustrated particular principled and are kept in a display book with notes and diagrams for long term future reference.
