"The Benefits of a Limited Palette" 

Using a limited palette in your painting practice is one of the best ways to improve your art.  You wil be surprised at how harmonious your colours will be.  It also helps you understand the power of colour mixing with the limited palette,  how many different hues , values and temperature changes you can create with just the  three colours. 

I will also talk about some different colour harmonies/limited palettes you can use to help you simplify the painting process, including split complementaries, double complimentaries, followed by a demo with just three colours (plus white)."
