Beginning Composition for Painters
As important as value, hue and chroma are to producing a great painting, composition underlies all else. Without a sound design/composition, no amount of value or color can create an effective painting. With effective composition, we can lead the viewers eye through our work, determining how quickly we want the eye to travel, and to create a particular emotion. This class proposes to examine many different compositional formulas to assist the artist in the design of their work.
