Color is the emotional heart of a painting. It describes the feeling of a place and the atmosphere and light of a particular day. Painting with a focus on color is all about creating relationships and context - how colors play off of each other and the conversations they create. In this demo I'll discuss how to get the most out of the oil painter's palette, using temperature, vibration and harmony.

Colin Page was raised in Baltimore, Maryland and studied painting at the Rhode Island School of Design and at the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art.

His work has been featured in solo exhibitions and group shows nationally and abroad, including at the Kaiping Museum of Art in China, the LA Natural History Museum, the Portsmouth Historical Society, the Laguna Beach Plein Air Invitational, Center for Maine Contemporary Art, and the Cape Cod Museum of Art. His work is in many private and public collections, including the Farnsworth Museum of Art. In May of 2019, Colin opened Page Gallery in Camden, Maine.

Whether working on location or in the studio, Colin strives to capture the atmosphere and light of a scene. Colin currently lives in Maine, where he focuses on painting the landscape, and scenes that show his life as a father.
