Circular Compositional Structure in My New Painting
In a prior post I discussed luminosity and illumination from 2 light sources in my above painting. The painting’s compositional structure is circular. The shape of the grapes curves around the plate. The diagonal shapes of the orange slices and the cast shadow on the left adds animation to the painting. The close up view also adds animation. The measurable centre of the painting is approximately mid way and at the bottom of the centre orange. The balancing centre is the 2 front orange slices; close to the measurable centre as expected. Since the compositional structure is a circle, there is movement around the outer edge of the picture plane. There is only a little movement in depth because of the overhead view.
