You guys are doing great so far on your Zoom Project. I can't wait to see it inked, but I'm jumping ahead. We will be inking starting Wednesday so BRING YOUR PENS and your finished pencil drawing. I noticed that some of you are struggling with composition and are still centering your images without taking into effect the Principles of Design. I am uploading two videos for you to watch. The first one is roughly 16-17 minutes long but does a great job at explaining the Golden Ratio/Rule of Thirds method for creating a balanced and appealing composition for any work of art. The second one is about 3 minutes and is great for a quick reference for when you are stuck on a piece and need quick tips on the go. I expect you to watch both.
Please answer the following questions:
- What common mistake(s) do you find yourself making in your own artwork?
- What is it about the Rule of Thirds that makes it pleasing to the eye?
- How will this help you when you are creating your own artwork?
- After watching the short 3 minute video, which "quick tip" did you find the most useful?
What common mistake(s) do you find yourself making in your own artwork?
ReplyDeleteCommon mistakes that many people make and I used to make a lot before was that I would center the point of interest. But the eye is not attracted to it because it is not going by the Rule of Thirds.
What is it about the Rule of Thirds that makes it pleasing to the eye?
It is pleasing to the eye because it is where the eyes are arrested to. Which means that if the point of interest is in one of those 4 points, then the viewer sees what the artist intended to be payed attention to.
How will this help you when you are creating your own artwork?
This will help me in creating my own artwork because it will help guide me in knowing where to place things so the viewer is attracted to that part.
