SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Plan and compose any painting so that it conveys the message and mood you want. First, the author talks about the planning that is necessary to identify the main shapes, planes, tones and colors of the scene. Then, he defines the three main types of mood and the give-away signs in the environment that will become your mood scale indicators. Next, he gets down to business with the Big Three critical ingredients: tone, edges and color--Jacket.
