BALANCE




SYMMETRY
The simplest kind of balance. 
When something is the SAME on BOTH SIDES. 
There is a line of symmetry that "reflects" the design. 

These artists use Symmetrical Balance as a major part of their design.

Balance and Symmetry



BALANCE- the visual weight of every element in a piece of art. Weight should be evenly balanced.
TYPES OF BALANCE- Symmetry, Asymmetry, and Radial.

This may challenge your brain, but the key is take it square by square.
