The eye is attracted, at first, to the strongest contrasts, then to more and more diminished contrasts as the mind takes in the whole. Color, saturation, angle, active or static, there are many ways to energize and to relax a scene to tease and to satisfy the eye.
Lines in disarray like reflections on the waves.
Increase and overlap, adding to the light, illuminating shadows.

The circle symbolizes endlessness, cosmic wholeness. The spiral symbolizes life and death. The pendulum symbolizes the back and forth of time. The artist constructs, like a cosmic geometer, the meanings of existence.
