“
What is interesting about CAPS!
is how fluid the sessions are --
you learn as much as you want to
learn, and you have the flexibility
to explore and do your own work.
Sometimes, the ability to make
that decision brings out the joy
of learning.”

Key takeaways:
Tones -- If we can master the tones,
we can create the moods.
I attend CAPS! to be INSPIRED, to
DEVELOP MY ARTISTIC SKILL &
TEACHING PEDAGOGY. Hue – Do not use colours that are
not related so that you can stabilise
the picture.
My key takeaway:
“Break the Fear” as espoused by
Mr Ng. Chroma – A measure of how intense
the colours are.
Application to teaching:
1. Remove fear in learning and
doing art.
2. Make easy the learning of
difficult concepts/skills.
3. Structure
the
progression
of my lessons from easy to
difficult.
4. Help students to feel and be
confident to learn.”

“
Mr Ng challenged us to re-think
about the colour theory we used
to know by introducing us to the
three-dimensional Munsell Colour
System. He also made us ponder
how to effectively use friend-enemy
colours system in a painting. A fun
and reflective workshop indeed!”
Why did I attend CAPS!?
I enjoyed myself in the previous CAPS!
and I want to continue learning. I
am not good at painting and so I
want to learn more.”
Takeaway 1:
I gained a new understanding on
the relationship between colours
and colour dimensions (Munsell
3D colour system). This will help
me to reconsider how I would pair,
layer and mix colours in my future
works or painting demonstrations
for students. Thank you Mr Ng for
correcting my perspective through
this very enlightening experience!
Takeaway 2:
I would like to thank Mr Ng for sharing
with us his approach towards
watercolour painting, challenging
us to re-think the opacity, density
and strokes of watercolour painting.”
