composition.

Composition is the organization of a space. Artists, no matter what medium is used, use composition for every piece they produce.

During my art classes over the past couple of summers, I was told twice that there are 72 elements of composition. The same teacher that I had that told me this also told me that he has only come up with about 50 of them. My class there then attempted to find them all.

However I don't remember them all. A few are color scheme, line, space, texture, negative space, balance, focal point, and value.
