BobBlast 195 "Loosen Up! Painting the Great... Outdoors Indoors."

This is another demo from my Loosen Up with Aquamedia Painting Workshop - How I paint the great outdoors… indoors. Day Three of the Loosen Up Workshop features Landscapes. You can tell by now I keep painting until the painting has some resemblance to the predetermined title, or theme. That’s right, I name my paintings first and write the title on the back before I start. This helps me envision the journey I’m about to take in my studio. I make it all up, but with a solid graphic design composition for landscapes. There are many different compositions - I rely on four favorites and begin with bold, black shapes. Landscape Composition #1. Mostly Horizontal - The focus is mainly along the horizon line. Landscape Composition #2. Off-Balance - Heavy on one side, with a lot going on. Over on the other sides a stand alone “something” - this smaller shape is by itself, but is related to the other half, such as a bunch of trees in the background, one larger tree in the foreground.
