What's in Premium?
Discover how simple value relationships can define mood in your paintings. We focus on breaking down a photo into major light and dark shapes, then use Curves, Levels, and Exposure to shift atmosphere from somber to bright. You’ll also see how altering contrast can make scenes feel more dramatic or serene, and learn to keep color choices guided by a solid value structure to maintain clarity.
