I've been an artist since I was able to hold an ink pen... I have never, EVER, seen someone both explain composition and illustrate a flawless lesson in the art of simplicity at the same time... You truly have a gift for teaching, whether you know that or not... Thank you...
This means an awful lot to me, really appreciate this kind of comment! Thank you :)
100% agree!
I absolutely admire how you manage to break down the most complex themes into such manageable bits! Thank you!
Thanks Barbara 😄
Brilliant and so helpful! From being a passionate photographer to a focus-lacking painter I now see what is going wrong. I love everything I see and find it really difficult to narrow it down to a composition so as a photographer I am prolific (digital was a blessing) but that doesn't translate into my paintings because I try to paint absolutely everything. Time to focus. Once again that little tutorial hit the 'light switch' 💡 Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Actually having examples was very helpful. Thankyou for sharing this.
You're very welcome!
I your teaching style…very chill while getting straight to the point on simple terms.
Thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing these composition tricks. I only knew about the rule of thirds and the Golden Spiral, but I’d never heard of the L, S and pyramid compositions. Thanks! 😊
Pleasure! But were you first???
I believe I was. Maybe I’ll stop being first once I save enough money to get a life and move out of CZcams. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you, Toby.
An excellent summary of composition types. Though I particularly like the reference to windmill-arms. 🤣🤣
😜
Thank you so much king, i like this a lot, i’m so excited to try these out
Hope you enjoy
I already knew about the rule of thirds and the golden spiral but not the others. Thanks for this lesson. I enjoyed it.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, very helpful as always. The first is what iv always gone by, but now have more options that id not known about until now.
Awesome to hear!
Another great way of showing how to do it. It's not enough to read about it, when you see it explained and demonstrated that just makes it "CLICK". Thank you for sharing your talent with us, for always upping our game too!
Glad it was helpful!
This helped me alot
That was very interesting, and helpful thank you very much . 😊
Very helpful, especially the examples! Thanks Toby!
No worries!!
Every day's a school day with you Toby - I never stop learning! 👏
Happy to hear that!
These 8 minutes are more intensely insightful than my whole college semester in art appreciation! Incredibly incisive!
I went to art school too. There are a lot of really bad art schools. I really didn't learn anything. And most art schools they kind of already expect you to know everything how to draw. That's why you submit a portfolio. And if you're not good enough, they don't accept you. It doesn't matter if it's a cheap school or an expensive school. And expensive school is just about connections to the industry and job boards to help you get a job. But it's pretty much the same. They don't really teach you very much except maybe like how to use 3D softwares and stuff like that.
Well I shouldn't say they don't teach you like the really good schools. Do teach you a lot but it's like $200,000 and it's not really worth paying that when you can learn. Basically for like everything you need from online courses that would maybe cost you $1,000
Best composition video on CZcams

Masterfully described and made simple and comprehensible. Great work!

Glad it was helpful!
This was on point with what I needed to understand. Thank you!
You are so welcome
This was a great reminder to plan out our composition. Thanks!
Just discovered your channel. Subscribed immediately. Learned more in 7 minutes watching this lesson than I have in 7 months of practicing on my own( I’m a newbie, but a dedicated one.) Thank you, Toby🙏, I’ll get caught up and watch what you’ve offered so far, while eagerly awaiting more! I’m greedy, what can I say…
Awesome, lovely to have you on board
Wonderful information!! Sometimes I forget everything isn’t, nor should it be, intuitive..Thank you!!😊
You are so welcome
Thank you I needed this!!
thank you for explaining!
That was very helpful thank you!
Thanks, Toby!!
Thankyou so much! This is so informative
Brilliant, thank you! The best explanation ever! 👌
This is so helpful! Thank you!
Again excellent instruction
Very helpful! I tend to use a couple more than others, rather instinctively and coming out of my photography background. This was a great breakdown of what the options are and your examples of possible subjects was hugely helpful as well, thanks for putting it all out so clearly and simply. I have heard of another option referred to as the “smile”, a sort of wide U shape, I use that as well. So glad I found your channel!
Toby thank you so much for the Focal Pt video! It was very simple yet informative! I am an artist of fifty years and I have learned instinctively what makes a good composition..But I am getting ready to teach a class on composition and this was so helpful. Thanks for sharing!
I found this very good to watch , you explained it simply and very well.Thanks
I love Edgar Payne's book The Composition of Outdoor Painting. Simple sketches showing these and several more useful compositions.

You’ve really helped me because my paintings are flat. Thank you so very much.
I'm so glad!

FA-SCI-NA-TING :-o
Thank you for this video. Is it true that we could also put the triangle one upside down? I think a face portret is more like an upside down triangle?
I'm sure you could yes!
Hi Toby, love trying to draw with fountain pen, however, frustrating whenever I go to use it is dried and will not work. Any ideas?
It may be the ink isn't suitable - try this post www.urbansketch.co.uk/blog/fountain-pens-and-ink-which-to-use-and-why
Sails :-)

Haha yup you were, just checking
