Daily Tips Day 244 Bill

Bill creates depth by adding a darker and larger rock formation.

There are several things to learn from today’s Video Tip.

Key Points To Consider:

  • The background layer is thin and wet.
  • Bill takes his time and makes his strokes carefully.
  • He adds some lighter rock formations off in the distance to create depth.
  • The further away something is the more vertical and horizontal they appear.
  • Bill darkens the color of the rock formation by adding VanDyke Brown and Blue.
  • Size and color determine how close something appears.
  • As Bill says “Dynamite comes in small packages!”
  • Bill continues to play with light and shadow.
  • The paint goes on easily because the background is thin.

Happy Painting!

Laurie and Dawn
