Zooming In

 

Next week in my Modern Painting class
we’ll be exploring the use of
zooming in (or cropping) to create more dynamic compositions.
I did this quickly today
in oils over an acrylic sketch I’d done in a previous class
(about color)

This is a fun way to think about arranging
bigger shapes and negative space.
”Zooming in” can also alter the subject just enough to add
a bit of surprise for the viewer.

NOTE:
While googling “Zooming In for BetterPainting”
a few painting and photography sites came up,
but were mostly dominated by sites on
“How to do a Zoom meeting”.
Times have certainly changed!

ANOTHER NOTE:
I’ve just added a new 4 week
on-line Modern Painting class through the
Rockport Art Association
March 30 - April 20.

Space is limited.
