What if you could paint ANY color, at ANY time of the day, without guessing — and get it exactly how you want it every single time?
Even better…
What if you could finally capture the beautiful colors you see in any subject and create radiant paintings that make people stop and say “WOW”?
Most artists learn to mix colors by memorizing recipes or following strict “warm vs. cool” rules.
They stare at color swatches. They follow formulas. They mix and remix, trying to get it just right.
But after all that effort…
They still end up with colors that look dull, chalky, or flat.
Why? Because traditional color theory teaches you to look at colors one at a time.
It misses the one rule that really matters:
Color Is Relative.
A color only shows its true nature when it’s next to other colors in the painting.
If you don’t understand how colors affect each other…
You’ll keep guessing. You’ll keep mixing.
And you’ll keep ending up with colors you can’t repeat … and paintings that don’t pop.
So if you’re still struggling to nail the color of your subjects, it’s not because of your talent or skill level.
It’s simply because you lack a system to see and compare color relationships.
The good news?
There’s an easier way to mix accurate, radiant colors consistently — without guessing or relying on recipes.
And it’s the secret many professional artists use to give their paintings the radiance they need to glow and capture the attention of viewers!
It’s Kami Mendlik’s “Color Relativity” system, and it’s built on one powerful mantra:
“Compare, Don’t Stare.”
What you’re about to discover isn’t the traditional “color theory” you’re familiar with.
It’s an easy-to-follow system that can help you achieve any color you want, accurately and repeatedly.
Now, this isn’t new…
In fact, Kami Mendlik has refined this system over her 20-plus-year teaching career, based on her discoveries after teaching over a thousand students of all levels.
She has distilled all her insights and discoveries into a comprehensive approach in her brand new course, Mastering Color Relationships for Radiant Light.

Introduction
This chapter introduces the core goal of this course: how to effectively use “color relativity” to create luminous light in your artwork. You will learn how one color changes in relation to another when placed side by side. This brief but crucial introduction sets the stage for reframing how you see color and light in painting.
Preparing Your Canvas
In this chapter, Kami shows you how to start a studio piece from a plein air study. You’ll learn her graph method for transferring your plein air studies and references to a larger canvas while preserving scale and perspective.
Strategize Shape & Color
This chapter covers strategic decisions for shape and color. Learn how colors shift warm or cool based on their neighbors. Plus, you’ll see how to transform overwhelming subjects into four basic shapes so you can paint confidently without getting lost in the chaos.
Mass in Shapes
Here you’ll learn to lay in the big abstract shapes with simple washes of color, allowing you to cover the canvas without preciousness. Discover the importance of “color merging” for accurate mixes, using “color strips” to match values and Kami’s “Sky Gray Formula” to achieve sophisticated, non-chalky colors that truly sing.
Establish Nuances
In this chapter, Kami will teach you how to see small differences in colors, how to mix colors correctly, and how to solve problems on your own. You’ll also learn two important things to remember when painting water, as well as how to avoid making a “lazy tree trunk” and how to paint trees that look real without getting stuck on too many details. This chapter teaches you why it’s important to work on your whole painting at once to keep colors looking right together, instead of finishing one spot at a time. If you’re aiming for a harmonious painting, don’t miss this chapter.
Develop the Painting
This chapter focuses on making adjustments to guide the viewer’s eye and achieve overall harmony as you work toward finishing your painting. You’ll learn push-and-pull techniques to refine shapes and edges, how to add color notes to the sky for interest and texture, and even tips on how to paint leafless deciduous trees (a common question from Kami’s students). Kami will also share tips on adding realism to water. As you paint along, you’ll start to see how it all comes together!
Develop the Nuances
Here you’ll work on the nuances of color temperature and value as you observe the subtleties of nature. You’ll lead the eye, create form and add interest to the painting using edge control, varied brushstrokes, color vibrations, and more.
Bring It to Finish
In this chapter you’ll bring the painting to harmonious completion, standing back often to make logical choices on changes or adjustments needed. Kami gives encouragement and tips on how to know when you are at a place to call your work “finished.”

Imagine being able to create the illusion of light in your paintings. Kami will teach you a step-by-step system to do it no matter your skill level.
She’ll make mixing colors feel simple. You’ll see how each hue affects the next, and how those choices change what the viewer feels.
This is the core skill pros use to make their paintings come alive. No more flat, dull colors.
Instead, you’ll learn how to build depth, add color nuances, and create the kind of light that makes a painting sing.
Here’s another skill that can level up your painting skills — building visual harmony in your paintings. This keeps your painting from turning into a jumble that confuses the viewer.
Kami will show you how to block in big, average shapes of color and use an expanded limited palette to create strong harmony. This makes the start of a painting simple, so you can focus on core color relationships before adding details.
Stop turning your colors into mud! Learn easy-to-follow mixing techniques that keep your hues clean and alive.
Kami will show you how to mix any color you want, any time. If you worry about ruining a painting with a bad mix, this will change that.
You’ll get a clear, repeatable process that works so you can paint with more confidence and focus on your vision.
