There are three different ways that balance is used. Please list the three different ways and explain what each means.

Symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial

Explanation:

Balance is the principle of design that dictates the work of art should be in harmony, and that its sides “weight” the same, so that it doesn’t look uneven. The three types of balance are symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial.

Symmetrical balance means the two parts of the art are identical. If we were to separate the picture or art piece in the middle, the two sides would be equal, presenting the same elements and weighing the same. It is somewhat static but very elegant and uniformed. An asymmetrical balance occurs when the two parts of the painting or work of art are not the same, yet they weigh the same. They are in harmony, but they have different components. For example, maybe one side presents larger elements, but the other side has brighter colors, so there is no tension, and the observer sees composure on the piece.Radial balance is presented as elements gathered around the joined center. They can go towards it, or from it, but they seem as if to radiate from the same focal point.
