Composition part 4 (Line of sight)


Thought i'd use one of my own photographs for this in the end. Line of sight is clear here, as everything directs the eyes into the centre where the sunset is taking place. The clouds come in from the corner and stop as they reach the centre, as does the branch on the other side, Everything draws your eye to the sun setting. 


What I've learnt about line of sight-
The line of sight is to guide the viewers attention to the centre of interest in the image. Line is massively important when creating work, as it can help the viewer to see and feel the things we want them to.


Intention- to create an illustration clearly displaying a line of sight.

Final piece



Evaluation - 
I think i achieved a clear line of sight here. However Im not completely happy with the outcome. I feel i should have gone with the kraken one, as this one lacks a tone of voice. I need to start saying things with my work, making it interesting as well as aesthetically pleasing. I love using pencil colours, but maybe i should have mixed it up for this one. I found it hard to get the right amount of tone and contrast using pencil colours. However on the whole I'm happy that i understand line of sight much better now, after producing these roughs and this final. 

Questions and speculative thinking  -
Can i achieve more tone when using pencil colours?
I should take more risks, think I play it safe too often.
