parts of their artwork stand out and grab your attention. • The center of interest or focal point
is the place the artist draws your eye to first.

CONTRAST
![Page 23: The “rules or guidelines” of art and how we apply elements together](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56816140550346895dd0ae3f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
