Composition in painting is one of the most important elements of constructing an image in a painting. To a large extent, the construction of the composition consists in the correct arrangement of various painted objects in the picture. You can check the correct location of objects by drawing outlines.
Instructions
Step 1
Modern technology allows you to create schematic images and painting elements in order to plan the correct composition in advance. On a computer, you can move objects around the space many times until the correct composition is built.
Step 2
The correct color palette also plays an important role in creating a composition. If an artist or photographer focuses on an element, then he gives this element a brighter color, which makes the subject stand out against the background of other less bright objects.
Step 3
The artistic rules for building a composition are based on the main rule - the “1/3 rule”. This rule for creating a composition consists in dividing the canvas into thirds horizontally and vertically, and finding the center of the canvas, in which the main action of the picture takes place. The objects of the painting drawn in each third should not intersect, thus providing the boundaries of the action of the image and its transitions. By creating accurate composition. The rule of thirds can be checked in advance with a pencil before paint or oil is applied to the painting.
Step 4
The rule of thirds is used in both painting and photography when building a composition, and is also sometimes used in some design methods. But in painting, pencil sketches are also widely used to pre-position all objects in a painting.
Step 5
Any professional artist must create an accurate artistic composition of a painting, otherwise the painting will not be perceived as a professional and noteworthy creation of painting.
