Crafting Dramatic Engagement in Your Paintings
Creating engaging and dramatic paintings is like telling a good story. It's a narrative. It needs structure, just like a story. So, if you're starting a painting without knowing what that structure is, it's a little bit like starting a joke without knowing the punchline. You get halfway in, and you don't know where you're going or what you're going to do. It's really important to have a good structure in mind before you begin.
