    In this lesson, instructor Steve Huston will start by analyzing the uses of line and shape in famous masterworks. Then, you will learn about depth of field and how it helps draw the viewer’s eye into the image. Steve will explain how color keying can set the mood for a piece of art. Lastly, you will examine the visual components of more masterworks to deepen your understanding of composition.

    This lesson belongs to the course Creative Composition. In this 6-week course, Steve Huston will teach you the main visual components frequently used in fine art. You will discover how line, shape, and color help strengthen the storytelling of your work. Steve will show you examples from the Old Masters as he presents each significant concept. In doing so, he will talk about how these components are applied in other art fields. Since this course was filmed during a live workshop, you will also be tuning in to his Q&A sessions and critiques of students’ works. Moreover, you will watch Steve develop a composition for a painting from start to finish. After completing this course, you will gain a deep understanding of art philosophy and composition; what you need for creating successful artworks.

    Throughout this course, you’ll have access to the NMA community for feedback and critiques to improve your work as you progress.
