Rule of Thirds vs Dynamic Symmetry [Fun Analogy] (2018)

Which “chicken soup“ will help heal your artistic illness? Hey everyone, thanks so much for all of the support and the patience in-between videos. I appreciate it! :) Today we are looking at an interesting analogy for composition grids offered to artists. Composition is a difficult thing to understand for artists, which is why the rule of thirds is taught to ’s easy to teach and understand. Place your subject on a third and call it good. Yet, just because something is easy to teach beginners, doesn’t mean that it’s good for beginners. Just like the old wives tale of chicken soup. We hear, over and over, that it’s going to help heal our illness, but that’s all we hear. We don’t dig deeper to actually understand what type of chicken soup will help. Not all chicken soups are beneficial, just like the grid we choose to use in our art to create something masterful. Please enjoy the video, and share if you find it interesting. Thank you so much! I make things to help visual artists reach the master level and you can find them below. Thanks so much for all of the continued support!
