“Contrasts”

Review Compositions (Ferris & Poole)
Keith Ferris will discuss the use of CONTRASTS in works of art. Contrasts between sizes and shapes of components: large vs. small, light vs dark, saturated vs grayed color, warm vs cool, soft edges vs. sharp, etc., etc., in works of art. This also applies to planning groups of works with contrasting sizes, shapes, color, and direction of flow, just as we do in planning the hanging of an exhibition. Poole and Ferris will compare attendees’ thumbnails, pointing out the use of these contrasting elements in compositions.
