Colour and Composition

Are you tired of creating paintings that people just walk by and ignore?

I believe that in painting just as in music, composition is one of the most important elements. A beautifully composed song can bring a tear to our eyes even when performed just reasonably well by a group of school children. By the same token, even Michael Buble can’t make a bad song sound good. 

The same applies to our paintings. A great composition that is only executed moderately well can still result in a very successful painting. A poor composition dooms a painting to failure right from the beginning, regardless of the “technical skill” of the artist.

When you combine a great composition with technical skill then you are on the road to consistently creating great paintings that stop people in their tracks and draw them in.

In this 12 part course I explain how you can use composition to dramatically increase the impact and appeal of your work.

What People Are Saying:

Wonderful. Thank you for this course. I learned a lot and will put it into practice. I'd like to add, your teaching style is also wonderful. I teach and create webinars (on a completely different subject not art related) and found your course relaxing, packed with information, and never boring.

Oh My Goodness!!! I am so grateful for this online course!! I am self taught and I knew there were things about composition I didn't know and I struggled to find materials that were easy to understand. I hadn't found any online courses until I was scrolling through my FaceBook feed yesterday and saw your ad for this course. I immediately signed up and finished the whole course in a day. I couldn't get enough!!! Tim, you have a wonderful gift in teaching. I am so very grateful that you made this course so affordable. It will change my work forever! I cant wait to play around with what I have learned.

Great course. Love your teaching style. Have taken numerous courses that touched on color theory and perspective but I still struggle. This course finally connects the dots of color, value, perspective and so much more for me. Looking forward to going through this again and applying it to an actual painting. Thanks so much!

In this video Tim Packer shows you how he uses his unique approach to create one of his signature winter scenes.

"I think one of the reasons my winter scenes are so popular is because they don't make the viewer feel cold.  The intense glow of the sun and the backlit effect evokes the feeling of those gorgeous days  when we can actually love winter" Tim Packer
