Dynamic Images
Cropping an picture so that part of the image seems to be heading off the page adds to the dynamism of the picture, it makes the viewer wonder whats happening ‘off’ the canvas. This works for large and small pictures alike. Its a great way to add a bit of energy to the painting.
For a quick project using my new circular punch I drew some doodle daisies with watercolour washes on heavy watercolour paper, then carefully lined up the images to make sure a bit of dynamic cropping was occurring, and punched out some mini circular paintings , and arranged them on a blank card.
