  5. Informal or Asymmetrical Balance • When several small items on 1 side are balanced by a large item on the other side • By Color- Small areas of vibrant color can be used to balance larger areas of more neutral colors. • By Value- Value refers to the darkness or lightness of objects.

  6. Informal or Asymmetrical Balance • By shape- Large flat areas without much detail can be balanced by smaller irregularly shaped objects (painting by Degas) • By position- larger elements on one side of the page can be balanced by a smaller element that is positioned by itself at the far end of the other side of the page.

  7. Informal or Asymmetrical Balance • By texture- Smaller areas with interesting textures areas with smoother, untextured looks.  • By eye direction- Your eye can be led to a certain point in a picture depending on how the elements are arranged (painting by Seurat)

  8. Variety • The use of differences and change to increase the visual interest of the work
