Ever notice how some paintings grab your attention right away and others just seem to go unnoticed? Chances are, those that jump out at you and get noticed have one or more aspects of contrast hard at work for them. Contrast equals impact. The more contrast you have, the more powerful is your visual statement. This book walks you through the hows and whys of using contrast to create bold, impressive paintings.
