Find me On IG -   / elisabeth_larson   In this video, I'll show you why simply making your edges softer isn't enough, what edge hierarchy really means, and how the greatest painters use lost and found edges to guide the viewer's eye through a painting. We'll also look at how changing the way you see your subject—from thinking in terms of objects to thinking in terms of light, shadow, and shape—can completely transform your paintings. In this video you'll learn: • Why edge hierarchy is more important than simply creating soft edges • The mistake that makes many paintings look amateur • Why master painters intentionally lose information • How to think about edges the way the old masters did • Practical ways to create stronger, more convincing edges in your own work If you've ever wondered why master paintings have such a powerful presence, I hope this video helps you begin to see them—and your own paintings—in a completely new way. If you enjoy videos on painting, color, values, composition, and learning from the old masters, I'd love to have you subscribe for more.
