A new angle to the tale
I introduced a new character to add a twist to the storytelling. This figure
informs the viewer that this scene does not only take place in space. As I do this
I pay attention to negative and positive shapes that are developing on the canvas.3
Supporting storytelling elements
I add objects to make this story more interesting
while maintaining the overall composition. It’s important
that these elements complement my main theme and
aren’t there just to fill the blank canvas.

Now I add another character on the right-hand side
to start to balance out my composition. Because I had
dark values occupying the left corner, I want to add visual
interest over on the right-hand side.
