most common viewers will notice the use of colur + light shadow in this image and praise it
most viewers will not notice how elements are repeated
prime example of common big medium small shape arrangement
- big, small, medium
most of the time artists will arrange it so the small shape is slightly more towards the left or right and not equally spaced between the large and medium shape
current example however is more evenly spaced
on the left we see another arrangement, big, medium small
on the right we see another arrangement, medium, small, big
the general method of creating the overall layout is
-
create objects in groups of 3 with varying arrangements of big medium small shapes
-
create other elements that overlap it in more natural/random ways to make it not so obvious
-
when viewed, these 3 shapes are seen as a group
another example - 3 repeated shapes in small, big, medium with variation in the gap between
notice all the different shapes that are repeated, from the long pointy towers, to the ground level pots, to the elevated pots, to the triangle base, to the dangling vines
notice the focal point, this diamond shaped opening that only shows up once in the entire image
the other focal point is this ship, which also only shows up once
