Balance is part of our everyday lives -- from physical balance to lifestyle balance, it's a concept we intuitively understand. But how exactly does it apply to visual composition? That's the question I sought to answer in the newest installment of my Impressionist Landscape Composition series.

We commonly think of balance as being symmetrical -- equal weights on a scale. But it's so much more and there's a LOT to play with! In this course, we'll examine balance with a scientific perspective. We'll also look at the psychology of balance through visual weight. And to put these concepts into context, we'll analyze a few Claude Monet landscapes. Finally, I'll show you how I go about incorporating balance into my work.

This course is focused on the concept of balance, so it applies no matter what visual media you work in! If you're interested in my oil painting techniques, I have quite a few courses that go into detail on my approach.
