Eisenberg Layout Study.



I'm not good at backgrounds and layout, so I decided to do some studies of this.

Emotional Statement:
- The cat is looking something that he likes from the window.

Observations:
- The six main elements on the picture are:
1.- Ground.
2.- Store
3.- Tree
4.- Fence.
5.- Cat
6.- Bird
- The cat is not in the middle, is more to the rigth and down.
- Big contrast between the cat and the store.
- The store is the biggest element in the picture.
- seems that the tree breaks the monotony of most straight objects, it also have the same inclination as the cat.
- the foliage of the tree points to the cat and this in turn points to look at the bird.
- there's big neg space between the tree and the cat and not much details in the elements.


this is the 11 drawing.
Is very difficult to make all the details on a small paper, so just leave it simple just to see de composition. I guess that this was drawn on paper larger than letter size.

  1. I also have some problems when it comes to size/scale of these images. I wonder how big Eisenberg worked? I'd wager fairly large, lots of comic artists did back then.

    Nice work! You will no longer be alone. I've been sticking to my private blog lately for studies, woop.
