DEVELOPING A COMPOSITION

 Composition is the design/layout of an image. It is how the Elements & Principles of Art are arranged.  It should be manipulated in sketches before starting a painting (thumbnails). Composition

 Strong Composition is important regardless of subject treatment.  When creating a composition -  Think about focal point  Address fore/mid/background  Manipulate the Elements and Principles of Design Composition

Compositional Guides  Golden Section (uneven cross)  Rule of Thirds  Monumental Triangle

Golden Section  The Golden Section is a Law of Proportionality. It is a Law that occurs frequently in nature and its use is particularly useful in Art. First developed by Vitruvius, it is most famously known from Leonardo Da Vinci's 1509 drawing 'The Divine Proportion‘. (Bottom Left)  Essentially the law states that two unequal parts of a whole must be in relationship to each other to create a satisfactory image to the eye.

Golden Section (Golden Mean)  Off-Center Composition Grabs viewers attention and holds it Focal point is never in the center of the page.

Rule of Thirds  Creates a place of emphasis or focus within the composition.  Divide the art into three parts vertically and then horizontally; where the dividing lines meet (there are four points) are the pleasing places to put the focal points.

Chris Peters

Monumental Triangle  Composition is arranged within a triangle shape  Creates stability (on it’s base) or energy (on a point) within the composition.  Often used with figure drawing Robert Leedy

Dave Myers Georgia O’Keeffe

Compositional Movement  Linear  Eye moves across the picture plane in a line  Circular  Eye moves around the picture plane in a circle

Eye Movement: Linear Vincent Van Gogh

Eye Movement: Circular Claude Monet
