2. Choose the right color and pay attention to the harmony and visual effect of color matching.
3. Choose appropriate painting tools, such as watercolor, oil painting, pencil, pen, etc. Different painting tools have different styles of expression.
4. Have a certain sketching skills, which can better express the details and texture.
With the above foundation, here are some practical skills for your reference:
1. Use color gradient
Color gradient can make the picture softer, and gradient color can make the whole picture look more natural. Of course, not only the background can use color gradient, but also the main body.
Use brush strokes
Different painting tools and brushes can bring different effects. We can use brush strokes to express different materials and textures of the background, such as lines to express the textures and details of wood and brush strokes to express the ups and downs of mountains and rivers.
Use pictures
The background can be decorated with various geometric shapes and patterns, such as circular patterns to represent flowers in the garden, rectangular patterns to represent buildings in the city, and even abstract graphics to represent dreams or hallucinations.
Use negative space
Leaving some blank places in the background can increase the layering and visual effect of the picture and make the viewer pay more attention to the existence of the subject. In addition, it can make the picture more transparent and enhance the texture of the picture.
Use color blocks and lines
You can use color blocks and color lines to divide the picture and emphasize the elements in the picture, such as drawing the outline of a big tree or drawing the flow direction of a river. At the same time, different colors and line widths can also produce different visual effects.
In a word, drawing a beautiful background is not an overnight thing. It needs a lot of practice and exploration, constantly trying and exploring different picture effects, different materials and textures, and creating its own unique style.
