Acrylic Painting Workshop: Exploring Zorn Palette in Autumn

Date: Tuesday, September 22, and Wednesday, September 23, 2026

Location: Glen Arbor Arts Center Classroom
Skill: All

This classic set of just four colors—vermilion, yellow ochre, black, and white—unlocks a surprisingly rich and expressive range. Named after Swedish painter Anders Zorn, the palette is renowned for its ability to evoke mood and atmosphere.

This workshop begins with hands-on exercises in color mixing, value, and theory, designed to deepen your understanding of this elegant palette. Then, you’ll apply what you’ve learned through guided painting projects using landscape and still life imagery provided by the instructor. Along the way, we’ll discuss mark-making, composition, and when and how to thoughtfully expand the palette. All work will take place in the studio.

Objective: Skill Development, Creativity Enhancement

Outcome: Improved Technique, Creation of Artwork
