Rule of Thirds: The basic principle behind the rule of thirds is to imagine breaking an image down into thirds (both
horizontally and vertically) so that you have 9 parts.

Rule of Thirds
aligning a subject with these points
creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the
subject would
Compositional rule in the visual arts
image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts
by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced
vertical lines
important compositional
elements should be placed along these
lines or their intersections

Consider…
Where am I intentionally placing
my points of interest?
What are the points of interest in this
picture?Breaking the rule can result in some striking
pictures… once you’ve learned it, experiment with
purposely breaking it to see what you
discover.
Keep the rule of thirds in mind as you
compose your artwork later on… cropping
and reframing images so that they fit within
the rules.
