Try These Painting COMPOSITION Tips 🎨✔ (From Photos)

Composition is critical in painting. But using photographs is misleading. This approach to painting from photos puts you, the artist, back in control of composition. Give the painting your personal touch and never be a slave to photos again.

I just subscribe to your Channel,and I thank you sir for a beautiful presentation of your techniques.I'm not a professional artist by no means,my hands are very disabled and I noticed that I can do more abstract painting rather than that "professional look".I do however love seascapes and landscapes ,i use oil pastels and watercolors and gouache and acrylics.I paint with music and sometimes paint what i hear in music,gives a awesome painting when finished.I'm not to fond of oils,it's the "drying time".listening to you sir brings up more joy in painting or drawing.❤️🤗😀

Composition is not my strong suit. Thanks for tips on photo breakdown. I use photo reference a lot as an idea then turn it in to my own take on the subject. Thank you.
