LINES AND PATTERNS

10_lines_and_patterns.png

Lines and Patterns is a composition technique that leverages the natural appeal of repeating elements in a scene. By focusing on orderly or repetitive lines and patterns, this technique highlights visual rhythm and harmony, transforming everyday elements into striking compositions. Vertical lines convey height and permanence, horizontal lines evoke calmness and stability, and diagonal or oblique patterns add dynamism and movement. Interrupting the pattern can introduce a focal point, adding intrigue and keeping the viewer engaged. Identify repeating lines or patterns and align them to the vertical or horizontal lines.
