8 x 10 Canvas, Help Needed! 2009-11-29 16:39:27


Hey guys, so I just got myself four 8 x 10 canvas's. I have an idea of doing a "strawberry fields forever" with an exploding strawberry... I don't know though if I should have all the canvas in 4 different sections but all are together, (the same image of the strawberry exploding over the four canvas). Or should I do just one, and no idea what to put on the other 3 that would go along with an exploding strawberry. Help me please, (pics will be provided once done).

Anyways, I'm gonna ignore that last sentence and give you an advice: Make an example or idea or scetch or anything of what you want it to be, because the description didn't really help me figure out what your problem, try using the "Enter" - button abit more...

The decision of how you use your canvases, and what you'll put on your canvases is best left down to you.
To confuse you a bit more, couple of questions you should ask yourself:
- Why make four individual but related images?
- Why use four canvases to make one single image?

An easier way of making your mind up is to initially sketch/paint out your ideas in a sketchbook so you've got an idea what works best/whats easier to do/get more ideas.

I'm locking this thread, since it doesn't have a starting pic. Feel free to make a thread looking for crit on your ideas, though.
