Full Description
An overview of the visual arts fundamentals, "Moving the Eye Through 2-D Design" provides a step-by-step approach to understanding what causes us to look at a painting, photograph, or any two-dimensional media and what is needed to maintain visual interest. This volume introduces a goal-oriented method that applies aspects of line, shape, value, and color directly to moving the viewer's eye to and through a composition. With this method, artists learn to incorporate feeling into the creative process from the outset rather than leavingit as a subjective afterthought. Equally applicable to the fine arts, applied arts, and digital media, "Moving the Eye Through 2-D Design" provides a simple and comprehensive methodology through which artists can create dynamic art."
