To CENTER or NOT TO CENTER...

     In order to decide which approach you would rather choose, it is best to get a little knowledge of both. Let's start with CENTERING which is called FORMAL DESIGN.


But first a few words from Andrew Loomas:




( New Informal Subdivision will be posted in NOT TO CENTER)



Focal point is placed high at these junctions and counter balanced with a second focal point in the opposite position below.

 When using Formal or centered  Arrangement it is best not to center the focal point. if you do your whole composition is stilled and stifled. How do you do not have your primary focal point dead center when all lines seem to direct you to that center?  Center is left less busy. So, once you are at center your eye leases for more interesting territory, that is directly up or down from center.
