Landscapes:
A landscape is a photograph, painting, or drawing of natural scenery.
Landscapes usually have a focal point, a place where the viewer's eye goes to first. This could be done by the coloring, a person or animal, or the light source (the sun or moon). As objects recede into space, they get smaller and lighter in color. Objects that are closer to the viewer are darker in color and larger in scale. This is called SCALE and provides the landscape with SPACE and DEPTH. You can also apply ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE (shows how the atmosphere affects how we see things in the landscape. For instance, things further away in the distance are lighter in color and loose detail), ONE POINT PERSPECTIVE (where things get smaller in space and converge to a single vanishing point) to give the illusion your image has depth. No matter what you decide to add to your landscape, all landscapes must have a BACKGROUND, MIDDLE GROUND, and FOREGROUND.
