15 Elements of Composition
For an artwork to look pleasing, it should be composed in the right way. Now, we can talk about what the "right" way is.
Western art books list eight elements of composition. I don't think this is enough, so we will talk about 15 elements that help to build a good-looking artwork with a meaningfully presented subject.
15 Elements of Composition:
- Unity
- Focus
- Balance
- Symmetry
- Proportions (including the golden ratio)
- Contrast
- Statics
- Dynamics
- Movement
- Rhythm
- Pattern
- Subordination
- Influence
- Links
- Guidance
