Weekly Lecture: 3 Types of Landscapes

To be successful you need the illusion of depth: DENSITY- concentration of materials (mediums, paint, wax, etc)

&

BALANCE- concentration of space (distance)

There are 3 types of Landscapes...

-Portrait- Try using a BLOB with this technique. Choose a close-up view with the subject in the foreground

-TableTop- Linear composition with a solid background (the further from the wall the subject is, the more difficult the piece)

-Vista- Neverending view into the distance (For example, looking from a mountain top)
