Thank you Matt. I'm a retired Correctional officer and was forced into retirement by age 32. The max prison is a focal point in society with what bad means. The way you describe composition , I'm trying to tell my story with how I feel about prisons. What they do to both. The correctional officer and the prisoner have similar roles. I want to.story tell without involving the cell. A cell.would be a focal point. Daily I'm painting and trying to become a beginner artist about what prisons do to the mind and body. I love a salvador dali approach.

@Flowerbloom-ft7ru 2 жыл бұрын

I remember finding an art work on my explore page in instagram, it was great but it just felt uncomfortable to watch because the artist painted the top purt more softly and well blended while the bottom was abstract and full of contrast colors, I wished they would’ve painted the whole painting like the bottom part and I didn’t understand why I felt that way, and now I understand, this is a very important topic for artists 👍

Such a good video! I do know some principles of composition but I often find myself being a little overwhelmed when it comes to composing the actual image. That's why I usually start with a rough painting and play around with it until I find something that "works". Whenever I try to do thumbnails I notice it's quite difficult for me to come up with different composition and I think I just found out why thanks to this video! I don't actually think about those individual principles enough and since I've always just "pushed the paint around until it looks okay" I never even let myself play around with things like variety, contrast, unity etc they're always an afterthought... the next time I start an image I will deliberatly create thumbnails based on these principles! I might even make a list and try to combine and emphasize different things based on the everything mentioned in this video!

Create focal points through: 1. Contrast 2. Isolation 3. Placement (Rule of thirds) 4. Convergence 5. Unsual Elements Principles of design: 1. Balance 2. Movement (Guide/engage the viewer) 3. Rhythm (Repetition/Motive) 4. Harmony & Unity 5. Emphasis 6. Variety (combine with harmony) Apart from that: 1. Positive & negative space 2. Planning (Thumbnails) 3. Rule of thirds (The „golden“ rule 4. Static & dynamic composition 5. Odd numbers (3, 5, 7….objects) Thank you so much for this great tutorial!!🙏🏻

Hahahaha! That has got to be the sweetest thing a person from a another country has ever said about our language in the U.S...though I do understand you were complimenting the host of this channel. Nonetheless, usually all I hear are complaints about our language, as if other languages have no odd accents to them at times and don’t have a bit of the ridiculous to them as well. I normally just roll my eyes when I hear the criticism. I was even talking to my oldest son and his wife about it today. But you, you made my day. 😘

In a sentence or two could you really \ help me out and briefly summarize on stock maybe like a metaphor example I really appreciate it I think I might know what you mean ....but then again I might not know... It's weird how my brain works composition is something that I had to rudely remind myself that I need to start paying more attention very specific attention and I get a little overwhelmed with trying to identify and snap photos with a consistent above or average composition

@isabelkoslowsky8214 2 жыл бұрын

@@MrBillkaz Thank you for reaching out. It can definitely get overwhelming, but be kind to yourself. It takes time and practice, but you will absolutely get there! With practice you will additionally develop a gut feeling for if something feels visually pleasing etc. With "stuck" I actually mean being overwhelmed. Imagine a large crowd of people while trying to find your friend. You sort of focusing on everything at ones at first.Its busy, loud and most likely overwhelming. However you break it down to key points/ instructions/or a map direction of where your friend is waiting for you the stress becomes most likely a little easier to handle as you have a tool/focus/intention.. I hope this somehow makes sense. In this case your friends are the tools for creating such as composition, color theory etc. You do not always have to relat to them, but it make a huge difference to have them in your life! I see it as going back to my "tool box" or roots whenever i am lost in my painting (in the crowd ;) for example. I would recommend to pick photos of yours and download copyright free images and compare what you like, dont like etc. Practice for yourself with your cropping tool on your computer as it shows you the lines of the "rule of 3rd" and you can change your own images in an easy way and get to compare them if you save a copy. Or draw little thumbnails and try different designs to see what may work best overall. This would be good if you have an idea/intention for a piece for example. Composition in a nutshell is about what draws our intention, makes us feel a certain emotion about a piece and what is pleasing to our eye based on how we function as humans. Nature is the best example. I hope this helps in some way. Enjoy your learning and creating 🙏

For digital artists a good way to quickly achieve that harmony/unity is to put a gradient map on a lower opacity over the image (I prefer to do this early on in the process and paint over it but it works in a pinch at the end too)
