Assembling forms out of flat shapes that are angled. Angles and change in colours create the sense of something being 3D.
1. 2. 3.
Overlapping multiple shapes Grouping the objects Creates a shape with depth
Windows, frames, and ledges have been added as well as smoke
Figure and accent colour are added. The colour contrasts against the others and creates an area of focus.
Opacity on the smoke layer makes the shape less harsh. I begin to consider different ‘details’ on the house.. ..do I use lines or shapes to show panelling/texture?
I try adding a striped pattern to the surface of the house to make the overall image less dull
I found out that you could add stroke outlines to shapes that have various textures too. I like how this effect, however it could look too fussy perhaps?
To make this image more consistent with the others, I used the colour picker and selected more of the colours used previously (more subdued purples and greys)..
