Grade 5 - 3 grounds in any painting

The Three grounds -

Foreground - What you draw in the front - the face, the person, the main or primary focus of your picture. This is the most detailed part of your picture.

Middle ground - the mountains, the sea or anything you are adding to add value to the picture but is not the focus. Less detailed than the foreground.

Back ground - the last and back most part of your picture, usually the sky or blank space. Still needs to be given some thought as to which colour and shades.
