Along the Moulin Rouge

Bill paints a cityscape - and - gives you a lesson on perspective. Perspective is the number one problem we see in paintings on which we comment. This video will help you get a good understanding of how perspective works and how to use it properly in your paintings.

This painting is almost one of Bill's "Yellow-Red-and-Blue" paintings. We just add Alizarin Crimson (which is a red paint). So we're keeping the palette simple so you can focus on perspective. This was our Monthly Art Project for July 2016. Skill Level:  4
