Master Studies and Rule of Thirds

   To gain a good idea of contrast, colour theory and perspective, we was asked to take some of the old masters work and try to replicate the composition as much as possible. This was more to gain understanding then to place detail, the first one seemed to have turned out much better then the second.

Frederic Edwin Church - Twilight.

   It was also requested that we use some concept environment art and place the rule of thirds and perspective, This allows us a idea of how the artist was working.
