Without a solid basic design, artworks will be chaotic and lack organization but many painters do not have a strong understanding of the Principles of Design. Lists of the Principles of Organization vary widely and most are too long, but I argue for just four basic standards that are critical to the success of paintings. My simplified list makes it much easier to troubleshoot a painting and make easier to decide on adjustments that will increase its effectiveness. In this week’s ArtSpeaks Studio Moment, I describe these essential principles of organization and how to use them as you design an artwork. The video is called “Exploiting the Principles of Organization for Better Paintings” and will give you the key to better designed paintings. You can watch the video on the ArtSpeaksStudio website blog or on the ArtSpeaks by Kay Byfield YouTube Channel.
