      Hello there! I’ve been working through the creative composition course ( so helpful!) and have tried to apply my learnings into this piece. But it feels off and I can’t work out why? Are there any composition hero’s out there that can help me fix this? B783C19C-E288-40A3-932C-98179B3D1E4B.jpeg

        @chloekrog I am no expert, but I think it has something to do with the point of view and our eye level. It feels like the man on the left is kneeling down and we are standing up. So I think maybe the man on the left has to be more level with the man on the right or a little higher.

          @PenAndrew Thanks for the feedback! I think you're right, those two additional men were throwing the perspective off. This is how I adjusted it, it seems to feel better now. Untitled_Artwork 30.jpg

            @chloekrog wow that adjustment you made really made all the difference! This is a great and interesting piece - my eye really easily flows diagonally through the image. Awesome job! 🙂
