Creating Depth and Distance in Painting to make it More Interesting | I’ve been always asked this interesting question; How to create depth and distance in painting? There are few points to consider creating a distance; Some example including; 1. Use lighter colors at the back; this could be easily accomplished by mixing you foreground colors with white; of course paint ratios depend on how deep you want to push your background further. You have to experiment with mixing colors. Another way to get background objects colors is to use transparent glazes of a complimentary or cool gray color. The second method needs more experience. 2. Reduce the sharpness of the shapes and objects at the background; similar to the camera; keep your focus on the main object. 3. Obviously, background objects are of smaller size than the foreground objects. 4. Use cooler colors for the background; as warm colors appear to advance and cool colors recede. Objects on a distance are cooler. You could study the colors in the Color Wheel Theory page. Cheers Mekdam Nima More painting tips and tricks will be posted in this page soon. |
