The Simple Secret to Better Painting How to Immediately Improve Your Work With the Golden Rule of Design
by Greg Albert
Description
A painting is only as good as its composition. No matter how well the colors match, how realistically the subject matter is drawn, or how accurate the perspective is, a painting will not be as attention-getting or interesting as it could if the composition is weak. One of the most important... Expand elements to any painting, composition can also be one of the most intimidating. In this simple resource, Greg Albert makes the principles of composition easy to remembr and use, as he boils all the complicated rules into one unforgettable master rule: Never Make Any Two Intervals the Same. By "interval, " Albert refers to intervals of distance, length, spacing and dimensions of shapes, as well as the intervals of the values on a value scale and the colors on the color wheel. He demonstrates this fool-proof "rule" with clear, concise diagrams and sketches, plus samples from today's top painters. Readers will get to learn from the work of Frank Webb, Tony Couch, Kevin MacPhearson, Charles Reid, Tony Van Hasselt and many more! Artists of all levels will find this invaluable secret to great composition easy to remember and even easier to use as they radically improve their compositions from the start.Collapse
