Take the guesswork out of colour and learn how to mix with confidence. In this workshop, you’ll explore colour mixing and combinations, understand the difference between warm and cool palettes, and see how colours interact on the page. Through simple, guided exercises, you’ll also learn how to create harmony in your work, giving your paintings a more cohesive and intentional feel.
This workshop focuses on a clear and practical approach to colour, breaking concepts down into easy, approachable steps. By the end, you’ll feel more confident mixing colours, have better control over your palette, and gain greater clarity in your painting process, skills you can apply to any medium or style.
About the Instructor
Diana Quilarque is a dedicated visual artist with over 26 years of experience in oil and watercolor painting. Originally from Venezuela, she developed a deep appreciation for realism through detailed landscapes, still life, and portraits. After a 20-year hiatus, she rekindled her passion for painting, studying under renowned artist Lorne Winters from 2017 to 2023. During this time, she refined her techniques and expanded her artistic vision.
Drawn to watercolor’s fluidity and expressive nature, Diana embraced the medium, allowing her to capture light, movement, and emotion in ways oil painting could not. She has exhibited her work in local art collectives and has contributed to multiple charity auctions. Passionate about teaching, she shares her expertise through workshops, guiding students of all levels to develop their skills and artistic voices. Diana believes art is a transformative experience—one that fosters creativity, mindfulness, and connection.
