I also think it might be a left-to-right thing for me. Thanks for playing along with my washi tape challenge. Good luck in the drawing!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02164810208248213986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3712356312036528826.post-90429685858843445402013-02-19T19:57:00.293-05:002013-02-19T19:57:00.293-05:00Interesting concept.

I have to say that while my eye was first drawn to the upper left corner floral BUT you created a relationship by the way the leaves extend down and virtually point the viewer right to the sentiment which is great. (Good design actually controls your viewer, they just don't necessarily know it's intentional :) I suspect you will get a 50/50 split on the 'what's the focal point' question. if you wanted to completely control it you could do one of things: (1) add a bit of white to the flowers (maybe a white accent along some of the petal edges) (2) stamp the sentiment in a color... though admittedly that does change the black & white color scheme which you might want to preserve. Thanks for sharing this with everyone. I will be interested to see what other see first.
