Chris Crites expand your palette workshop


Chris Crites is a brilliant young contemporary artist who happens to live in Seattle. I have enjoyed his work for years, his most prolific venue is painting mugshots on brown paper bags. Check out his website!

He offered a one day “Expand your Palette” workshop at Pratt, one of many fine art establishments near me, so just for fun, I attended. We all worked in acrylic, and were told to choose 5 colors. He explained his theory, and the whole class jumped in.
