Combining Geometric with Organic Motifs in Abstract Composition
.
The above composition is an example of the dynamic effect achieved by combining both organic motifs and geometric elements in the same picture plane.
The pale marbleized textures are contrasted to the sharp straight lines of the geometric shapes. The repeated narrow black shapes remind me of piano keys.
.
The general effect of the geometric shapes is one of looking straight down at a design with the same depth of field, which creates a two-dimensional composition.
The curved lines and shapes, if predominant could create an impression of depth, or three-dimensional space.
.
In the future I will include examples of organic-geometric combinations, which produce different effects, and attempt to explain how they exemplify particular elements of design and principles of Composition.
