Painting Landscapes: Composing Shapes and Values
I'm learning to use iMovie to turn my digital photos and videos into movies I can share with other artists. Here's one about organizing shapes and values in a plein air landscape created with oil colors. I'll be interested in your comments and suggestions. Thanks, Steve

This is really well done, the iMovie platform looks like a worthwhile investment.
ReplyDeleteThe tutorial on composition was beneficial, and many demonstrations like this don't focus enough on this very important aspect of painting.
I hope you do more of these.
Excellent! Hope you will do more.
ReplyDeleteNice Steve. The visuals about composition were clear, and the tidbits about light effects were
ReplyDeletegood reminders.
I really liked this and found it very informative.And the painting is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI plan to return to this website, but I thought the clarity of the iMovie was poor--quite fuzzy. I also noticed that although you stated that the sky is lighter in value than water the painting showed the opposite.
