Question

What is the ground? Why is the choice of ground important? Provide three examples of ground.

Answer 1

The ground is the surface the drawing is created on. The ground chosen by an artist influences the finished result and the ease and success experience while using the medium. Examples of ground could include, wood, paper, canvas, etc.

Answer 2

the ground pulls together the drawing/painting without a surface the buyer of person viewing it will get lost in your artwork, also when drawing the ground you should have a plain surface like we used to draw when we were 5. you should add dimension in your drawing by adding mountains, water, etc in the background so it’s more intriguing.
