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)
It is the underlying success of a painting because it is the structure or bones upon which technique is built.
Composition

Strong Composition is important regardless of subject treatment.

Let’s discuss Composition…
Golden Section (uneven cross) Off-Center Composition
Grabs viewers attention and holds itFocal point is never in the center of the page
Makes your drawing more sophisticated

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.

Rule of Thirds
Creates a place of emphasis or focus within the composition.
The point of emphasis is found by dividing the painting into three parts vertically and then horizontally; where the dividing lines meet (there are four points) are supposedly aesthetically pleasing places to put the focus of the painting.

Monumental Triangle
Composition is arranged within a triangle shape
Creates stability within the composition (unless triangle is flipped)
Often used with figure drawing

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

Let’s discuss Composition…
Page Format Picture plane Does not have to be the traditional
rectangle

Let’s discuss Composition…
Vantage Points The point of view from
which the artwork is created
Selecting a viewpoint changes the mood andcomposition of an artwork
Level eye view

Selecting a viewpoint:
Bird’s eye view
Worm’s eye view

Manipulating Composition and Elements/Principles of Design

Composition Sketches
Using the objects that you are going to use for your observational painting create 3 thumbnail sketches that rearrange the composition to illustrate some of the compositional issues we have discussed.
You should use several compositional techniques in each thumbnail.
Under each thumbnail list and label the compositional techniques that you have used in the sketch (i.e. – golden section, movement, & vantage points, etc.)

Observational Painting Composition
Complex, Balanced Composition Focal point, Fore/Mid/Background addressed
Creative Expression Selected objects are interesting Objects are arrange in a creative way
Presentation/Craftsmanship Paint application is clean and neat (canvas is thoroughly covered,
edges are even, brushstrokes look intentional) Skill
Realistic/Observational Subject Treatment Paint is blended/handled well
Objectives Begin with an underpainting Painted from real objects
(if you don’t bring them in you have to use what is available here)
Do 3-5 thumbnail sketches first to create the best composition
