Core Concepts Of Art

Composition

Composition is how subjects and elements are placed in a scene, be it a painting, portrait, photograph, etc. It can be used in order to lead/guide the viewer to main focal point of the picture. This can be used in video games as a navigation system. 

You can control where the viewer looks based off of subject placement. If you place the subject in the centre, it draws the viewers eyes there, creating a sense of satisfying symmetry. If you place the subject off-center, it allows the viewers eyes to lead around the piece.

The rule of thirds is a concept of art that suggests that a photo is more appealing is the subjects are placed along the dividing lines.
