When creating playful or atmospheric pieces like the ‘Dancing Ghost,’ I’ve noticed that the mood of the background often shapes the whole emotion of the artwork. Sometimes a very soft, minimal backdrop lets the character pop, while other times a more textured environment adds a sense of story and movement. Many artists experiment with small changes in color, light, or silhouette to see how it influences the final feel. Interestingly, I recently read about how thoughtful organization in completely different fields can also change the way people perceive their surroundings. This overview shows how a well-structured system can make everyday life more balanced and visually clearer: https://affordablewastemanagement.co.uk/commercial-waste-services-edinburgh/
Even though it’s unrelated to painting, the idea of clarity and structure really resonates with how we build scenes in art.

When working on whimsical pieces like the ‘Dancing Ghost,’ what helps you decide how detailed or expressive the background should be?
