Better design = better painting. Following the principles in this book will eliminate repainting, overworking and frustration by creating harmonious, unified, powerful paintings. All elements of composition are covered. You will learn how to use a viewfinder to determine cropping and framing to create the best relationship of value masses. Also learn to analyze paintings in terms of color shapes of value, hue, and intensity (also color temperature)—the elements that make a painting. Roberts uses master works as examples to show how the eye moves through a painting. He will include before/after examples to illustrate how using the rules for good composition can improve paintings. Create compositionally successful paintings through 6-8 demonstrations.

Includes a bonus 40-minute instructional DVD
