Triplicane Market - A quick acrylic

Triplicane market - Acrylic by KravMaga SreeRam

WHAT IS THE DOMINANT THEME ?
Every art has a dominant theme, which the artist has to decide before putting his pencil to the paper. The theme could be Character study, Light study, Perspective study or an exciting treatment like charcoal, water color wash, pen lines and so on.
In this painting even though there is a typical Indian color palette, which itself is an attraction due to its ethnicity, the drama is provided by the strong light contrast and the deep perspective.

LIGHT PERSPECTIVE - HUE  
The normal perspective is based on the gradual reduction in size and height when objects go towards horizon.
Another interesting device used by artists to indicate depth is "Light perspective'. Objects going towards the horizon gradually lose their natural hue and  acquire the hue of the atmosphere.
This light perspective is very obvious in fog or mist. Even in hot weather the shimmering atmosphere provides the gradual feeling of depth. In cityscapes the pollution will give that depth.

LIGHT PERSPECTIVE - VALUE
Generally, CONTRAST is a great device to produce that WOW as soon the audience looks at art. The objects nearer to the viewer will be darker. The gradual CHANGE IN VALUE -Dark to Light, gives the viewer the gradation of distance.
