Have you ever looked at the paintings of the great masters of impressionism and wondered how they achieved such intriguing work from even the most common of subjects? Whether they painted haystacks or a worn path, their paintings pull us in and captivate our minds.
How did they do it? And -- more importantly -- how can WE do it? Great artists employ two important concepts: Rhythm and Movement. These concepts seem a bit vague and mysterious at first, but really quite easy to understand once you learn how to "see" them. In this course I will demystify the concepts of Rhythm and Movement in visual arts so that you can use these concepts more effectively in your work. Rhythm and movement are not always readily apparent for us in nature. Sometimes we need to know how to emphasize these qualities in subtle but meaningful ways. This course is focused on the concepts of Rhythm and Movement, so it applies no matter what visual media you work in! If you're interested in my oil painting techniques, I have quite a few courses that go into detail on my approach. I also have recently started a YouTube page called "Rachael Atelier." There you can find some supplemental videos and demonstrations! More info - https://www.skillshare.com/classes/Impressionist-Landscape-Composition-Rhythm-Movement/1366688892?via=search-layout-grid
