Composition

 

Interior Composition- 

After drawing furniture in rooms, we looked at how to position the furniture to try and lead the viewers' eyes to a certain point or to tell a story. In other words, positioning objects to create a stage for action to happen. The task was to place a list of furniture we were given into a room and make the viewer be drawn to the fishbowl using different composition rules. My original idea was to have the room as a fishbowl with all the human furniture fish sized and in the bowl. However, I wouldn't be using composition to make the fishbowl the center of attention, so I changed my plan to a room in a house that had just been robbed so all the furniture is askew but the fishbowl on the windowsill of the window where the robbers entered the house is still perfectly fine. I also used the lines of the wonky furniture to point towards the fishbowl which I feel has worked successfully.

Outside composition- 

Outside composition is different to interior as it’s natural forms and natural lighting. The task was to redraw a scene of a forest we had been given from a different angle. I chose the new angle to be looking up along the path under a branch up to a little cottage as the branch framed the new part of the scene I had to make up. To improve it I probably could add more flora and fauna and get the scale of objects for accurate when they’re at a distance.
