THE ART OF COMPOSITION

Another method of using a simple composition inside of a Root Two would be to form a Root One or square at the side, and in the remaining

draw again a square in the smaller proportion, or Sequence. This would make a small square and a Root Two in smaller proportion of Sequence. If we draw a quadrant arc or a quarter circle from the far corners of the large square and cross this with the diagonal line, we shall have found the place where again the Root Two will be inside the square. If we draw the diagonal and crossing lines in the small Root Two, we shall have the point which we can make one of our points of interests. This In Fig. 78 is shown an illustration layout would then look like Fig. 77. part to

Another simple method of using a Root Two woiild be to draw a square within the Root Two and in this square draw two Root Two's overlapping This would give you the layout shown in Fig. 82. In Fig. each other. 83

THE ART OF COMPOSITION

Another compositional layout can be made by drawing the square on one end of the Root Two, and dividing the remaining part into a square

and a Root Two, and making the principal point of interest on the centre of the diagonals of the square and the secondary point of interest in the smaller square, as is shown in Fig. 84. There is shown in Fig. 85 a composition based on this layout. On page 70 are shown a few layouts in Root Two.

You

can readily understand by these that the combinations are inex-
