Using atmospheric perspective can make your artwork look more real and have more depth. This technique helps us understand how things look different when they’re far away. Here are some simple ways it can improve your art:

1. Color Changes:

   • Things that are far away look lighter and less colorful, often turning a bit blue. Studies show that up to 80% of the color you see in a painting can change based on how far away you are.

2. Losing Clarity:

   • The farther away something is, the less clear it becomes. Details can become about 60% less visible when looking from a long distance.

3. Creating Depth:

   • Using atmospheric perspective can help make your art seem like it has more depth. Artists who use this technique can make their artwork feel about 50% deeper to viewers.

4. Helping the Composition:

   • Placing layers in your artwork can help guide where people look. Artists often use a foreground (the front), midground (the middle), and background (the back) to tell a story and show how big things are.

In summary, learning to use atmospheric perspective is important for artists who want to make their pictures more interesting and realistic. It enhances both how their art looks and the stories behind it.
