If you're referring to placement that is symmetrical or tidy looking, then I suppose it would be a matter of style. Mondrian appeals to me, but isn't how I work (maybe that's why it's appealing--ha, ha!). At the same time I don't just slap stuff down in any old place and call it creative--I really care about where each element goes, even down to the minutest of adjustments and how well the color scheme works, etc. Do I work with rulers and triangles and aim for perfection--no, but I do often make some rough measurements for centering. I'm not sure my response is of any help to you... --LaRindalarinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08630120664007002583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27972010.post-60588552253772199312007-05-19T19:09:00.000-07:002007-05-19T19:09:00.000-07:00Can't you be neatly creative? xxoo AstridCan't you be neatly creative? xxoo Astrideasyjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14362266117570935013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27972010.post-69373585984490792492007-05-16T10:52:00.000-07:002007-05-16T10:52:00.000-07:00I can't choose Amber...sorry...I'm picky as to col...I can't choose Amber...sorry...I'm picky as to color and content but then again I'm also a detail freak...as to placement, the right embellishment...the fact it goes with the overall theme...I think this is why I create so little...I'm obsessive about it...that, and my muse vacations alot...lazy girl that she is! ;)Altered Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12624623377853815821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27972010.post-237892157296219262007-05-15T12:25:00.000-07:002007-05-15T12:25:00.000-07:00Hmm...that is one I have wondered but to be honest...Hmm...that is one I have wondered but to be honest. I think that creativity rules over all. At times I will feel as if my being an artist is causing a HUGE mess. There really isn't anything that can take the place of the freedom that comes from creating. <BR/>I hope this answered your question. <BR/>*HUGS*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
