Later artists advanced these techniques to give paintings more realism and convey the poetry of the landscape. Here you can see the systematic changes in color from the areas that are closer to you, compared with those further away from you. “Appenine Glow, Italy” by Barry John Raybould – 30cm x 40cm – Oil on Canvas – 2019 Finally in the far distance, the red violets turn to blue violets and blues, as the red hue drops out of the landscape colors. These colors give way to red violets in the middle distance, as the yellow hue disappears from the landscape. In this painting you can see bright oranges, pinks, and yellow greens in the foreground. “Bibola, Italy”, by Barry John Raybould – 40cm x 40cm – Oil on Canvas – 2019 The first color to drop out is yellow, then red, and finally blue. If you consider the three primary colors: red, yellow, and blue, each of them drops out of the landscape at different distances. The colors of objects change by moving across the spectrum, or around the color wheel. The third change you see in objects as they move further away from you is in their hue, or color. Changes In Hue Due To Atmospheric Perspective In the distance the darks become lighter and there is less contrast between the lights and darks. In this painting of a street in Venice, you can see how I used grayer colors to depict the distant buildings, compared with the much more saturated colors I used in the foreground figures.
