SKILLS & CONCEPTS
The color theory task provides the most rigorous color science in the collection — wheel, Itten, Munsell, atmospheric depth. The manga workshop applies those skills to stylized expressive palettes and anime-inspired storytelling. The graffiti workshop applies the same color knowledge to a completely different aesthetic — urban, high-contrast, typographic, and expressive. Together these three cover color from scientific theory through two culturally distinct contemporary applications. Students work visually throughout — swatches, practice grids, and visual references.
