Composition: A Series of Exercises in Art Structure for the Use of Students and Teachers

Develops a system for teaching students to create freely constructed images on the basis of harmonic relations between lines, colors, and dark and light patterns. Greatly influenced by Japanese art, the author expounds a theory of "flat" formal equilibrium as an essential component of telling pictorial creation.
