This next lesson is dedicated to the further exploration of composition, and its use as a tool of expression. Exercises will be presented and demonstrated that can be used and applied when analyzing your own work for its compositional strength, as well as those works you admire to help uncover exactly what it is about them that makes them successful.
In addition, problem solving techniques will be provided that can be performed to assist in determining the most powerful and effective compositions when faced with your own subjects. These are problem solving tools that can be used repeatedly to help discover solutions, and to refine your communication skills through the use of arrangement. High resolution images of Richard's paintings are included as examples to further clarify concepts. Lastly, as a special treat, also included are a few sequence shots of Richard's painting, “Russian Doll.”
