Rule of Thirds

To make something fade into the background

To contrast something

To make something stand out.

to draw something with a visual beat.

You should always have 3 objects and place them together.

divide the paper into thirds and place focal points on the grid

divide paper into thee parts and place objects in the center.

draw only one third of the piece you are imagining.

point of interest you want viewers to see first

a point of interest that you place in the background

a point that you do not want viewers to notice.

a point you are supposed to stare at in the artwork.

The crowd of people

The two figures talking in the middle

The arch way above the people

The man in the left corner.

the city

the stars

the cypress tree

the moon

the painter

the curtain

the lady

the tapestry

The brush and canvas
