8. SO HOW DO WE CREATE
A SUCCESSFUL
LANDSCAPE?

9. There are (4) things you must always have to
create a landscape, and they are;
1) A HORIZON LINE
2) A FOREGROUND
3) A MIDDLE GROUND
4) A BACKGROUND

10. HORIZON LINE - The line where the land (or sea)
seems to meet the sky.
The horizon
line is usually located at
around the middle of your
scene/paper

11. FOREGROUND - the part of the image/scene that is
closest to the viewer
The foreground is larger and more detailed
compared to the rest of the scene. It is also in the lower
portion of the
why do you think that is? composition.

12. MIDDLE GROUND - The “middle” of your image.
Objects start to become smaller
and less detailed.
This one’s easy - the Middle ground is
located in the MIDDLE of your
landscape!

13. BACKGROUND - Whats going on in the rest of your
landscape, includes the sky, and
everything is smaller!!!

14. Our Project -
We will be using an art technique called COLLAGE
to create the different layers to form our landscapes
Collage - using multiple images or parts
to form together to create an
entirely new image!
