Description
Welcome to this new art series that I call "It's ART, Actually !" where we learn to find art in all images that looks great ! This week : Breaking Bad Iconic Intro shot !
🖌️(◔◡◔)🎨Want to start learning how to paint and draw realistically as the old masters did? If so, click here https://atelierfigurativearts.com/
The concept is the following : take an iconic image from pop culture (like a movie shot, a video game cover or a scene from a tv show) and analyze the visual composition in parallel with famous examples of Art History.
Good images are not good for no reason. Whether it's drawing, painting, photography, video games or cinema, there are composition ideas that have been used by artists for centuries and today, we'll focus on a concept called the "Rückenfigur" and explore how it can be used creatively to help the viewer feel more connected to the subject despite the fact that they can’t see their facial expression. It’s a trick that shouldn’t work and yet it works so well… today, we’ll try to see why and learn a few cool ways artists can use the Rückenfigur in their works.

About me (bio) :
🌐Website :
https://www.florentfarges.com
I am an artist living and working in France. I paint mainly imaginative realism. I’m mostly self-taught, I learned the techniques of the Academy of the Nineteenth century by myself and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I think that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. On YouTube, I do mostly drawing and oil painting techniques videos in the Atelier tradition, I share thoughts and explanations that can be useful to anyone, from beginners to more advanced artists interested in picking up realism and classical figuration.
