My Masterpiece has depth and incorporates warm colors in the front (orange, red) and cool colors in the back (blue).
I also used shading that made the light look like it was coming from the right.
I also added to the illusion of depth by adding more texture in the front and less texture farther in the back. ( example in the grass)

Annunciation by Taddeo Gaddi
This painting uses sand colors to effectively build a sense of depth with its rolling hills that appear farther away as it becomes less saturated.
I will use orange more often if i have to paint faces or hands in the sun.

Peter Brugel
Peter Brugel uses shading to create the illusion of depth. His shading gives volume to his large castle and makes it feel even larger.
The shadows show that the light is coming from one direction. This makes it feel natural.
The colors grow less saturated as it appear farther, adding to the illusion of depth.
I will incorporate warmer colours in the areas with sun, which will make my painting seem more real. I will also imated his style for clouds, they look real.
Summative Summary Of Mathmatical Rennaissance
First we primed out board with layers of white diluted acryilic paint. After sanding lightly with a 400 sandpaper, we brought our drawings and traced it with a soft pencil on tissue paper. We then flipped the image over and retracted the lines so the imprint of the lead would stick to our board.
Unfortunately, I was unable to use this technique effectively and smeared lead all over my wooden panel. I then chose to simply redraw the sketch onto my panel. This proved to be much faster, as i did not have to redraw the image twice; once for the tissue paper and the second to imprint it on the panel.
With a finished drawing on my board, we were given a choice between acrylic or oil paint. I chose oil paint even though it was a different medium and had a infamous record for smearing everything with pigment.
Oil Paint proved to be very good as the paint would take a few days to cure, so i could practice wet-on-wet techniques. This made mixing shades way easier.
I got to a certain point where i covered a majority of the panel with paint, i then started to draw finer details into it. using black and purple, i created shadows and gave the appearance of depth.
I then chose, on a whim, to paint the road blue, turning it into a river.
After some more painting, I finished my master piece. It was good.

5 Rennecatnt Artworks
Leonardo da Vinci
Created the Mona Lisa
The paintings bird's eye view of the landscape both contrast and fits with portrait of the Mona Lisa
There is a use of size to add to the illusion of depth, as the landscape that is farther away is smaller relative the the things in front of the picture plane.
The use of warm to cool also adds to the illusion of depth as the warmer colors are in the front makiung the landscape seem closer than the background, mainly composed of colder colours.
The Technique i learned from the Lenordo Davinci is the use of colors and placing the focal point off the picture plane. I also will use colours such as dark blue and green to shade darker area, as black is too strong of a pigment and will muddy all the colors that is near by it.

To prime the board, we would first sand the board with a gray 400 sandpaper.
This would remove imperfections and nicks in the grain.
We then painted the board with a thin coat of ghesso, titanium white acrylic paint diluted with water.
This allowed us to make our

In the End
I found that, my art was new and challenged the style of my classmates, who used plastic stencils to make their art. I found that tape was a more hands on experience that allowed be to adjust and revise any complications, on the fly. This proved the tape to be both flexible and fun.
Stain i found was both the means to an end and the start to something to new. The stain saved me time appling it, but i found myself waiting long periods of time waiting for it to dry. I then realized that this wasnt the way to put stain on.
