Eleven Kinds of Composition —— The Art of Layout and Management

First of all, the composition should be full and the area occupied by still life should be just right. In terms of position processing, there is less white space on the upper part and more white space on the lower part of the general still life combination. The location of the core should be arranged near the golden section as far as possible (as follows). We should do a good job in visual guidance and rhythm control from composition.

1, triangle composition

Triangle composition has the characteristics of stable balance, but inverted triangle composition is extremely unstable, which will produce strong sense of movement and visual stimulation.

2.s-shaped combination

In the picture of S-shaped composition, the aesthetic feeling has been fully exerted, which is first reflected in the aesthetic feeling of the curve. S-shaped composition has strong dynamic effect and more stability.

3. Quadrilateral combination

The proportion of quadrilateral is infinitely variable, so it can form countless shapes. Quadrilateral makes the picture have strong tension, and the picture situation changes freely and harmoniously, which is a more dynamic composition.

4. Diagonal composition

In the diagonal composition of the picture, the diagonal relationship formed by lines gives the picture a strong sense of form and plays a good supporting role.

5.x-shaped composition

It is equivalent to the composition of two diagonal lines, which makes the picture have a strong visual impact, psychological disturbance and turmoil. Such a strong sense of form can easily make the picture jump out.

6. Trapezoidal composition

Trapezoidal composition has a calm, solid and powerful aesthetic feeling visually. Trapezoidal composition is similar to triangular composition, and it is a steady composition. When there is no high still life in the picture, it is suitable for trapezoidal composition.

7.t-shaped composition

T-shaped composition is a classic composition form of western painting, and it is a relatively stable composition form centered on the theme. If it is changed properly, it will produce stable composition forms such as L-shaped composition and cross composition. T-shaped composition was originally used in portrait painting, and later this theory was used in photography, still life and landscape painting, and now it is mostly used in landscape photography and painting.

8.c-shaped combination

C-shaped composition will make the picture full of rhythm, which is often used for vertical composition. When drawing a C-shaped composition, the position of the object should be arranged reasonably so that the object will not be too blocked and the picture will not be unbalanced.

9, circular composition

The circular composition gives people the aesthetic feeling of rotation, movement and contraction visually. In circular composition, if there is an interesting point focused on the line of sight, then the whole picture will have a strong centripetal force centered on this point.

10, trigonometry composition

Triangular composition is often used as a quick way to arrange the interesting center of a painting. In triangle composition, it is necessary to divide the picture into three parts horizontally with two vertical lines and vertically with two horizontal lines, so that the picture is divided into nine parts, just like writing the word "well" in Chinese, so that four intersections can be obtained, and then the focus to be expressed or the center of interest can be placed near one of the four intersections.

1 1, l-shaped composition

L-shaped composition is a kind of composition with strong sense of rhythm, which is often used in the process of landscape sketching, and also has a special charm when used in color still life.
