We all know about the fundamental skills of art. Be it lighting, perspective or colour theory. They are all talked about a lot in the art community. What if I told you, there is another part of this puzzle that is often overlooked by most of us?

Design principles are a core part of fundamentals. It acts like glue that holds everything together. If Fundamentals were the alphabet that forms mere words, the Design Principle would be grammar. You can speak/write the language with just the alphabet. But, without grammar, they are just a bunch of words with little sense.

Principles bring everything together and help you break down art in a constructive manner. Join the artist, Ayan Nag, as he guides you through design principles and shows how it is used in the composition.

Things you will learn in this class.

• What Design Principles are
• Their relationship with the fundamentals
• How are they applied in paintings

If you are trying to improve your understanding of Fundamentals and gain new insights and perspective on the topic, this class is definitely for you!

This is the first Class of the series. There will be two more Classes following this one.

Starting with Design Principles followed by Fundamentals of Art. Finally, we move on to The practical demonstration, where I show you how to apply everything we have learned in a painting.
