The rule of thirds is a composition guideline that can be applied to various art forms, including collaging. It involves dividing the composition into a grid of nine equal parts using two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines. Here's how you can apply the rule of thirds in collaging.

Oh my! This may just give me the courage I needed to do a collage! I lay something out with no clue where anything should go and I don't like the way it looks. I'm not an artist, but I want to dabble in paper crafting and now I think I stand a chance of it looking ok! You're explanation makes sense to me! Thank you very much!

You've taught me that collaging, especially with people, is so much easier (and fun) if I create a story about them, like you did for this music teacher who is longing for home. I've used the rule of thirds in photography, but never - at least not intentionally - in collage... I'm not sure why. Love your page, baby girl! Hugs, MomK 🤗❤️🌵❤️🤗

Lol being a painter this composition technique is a favourite. It always works. I love that you apply logical like giving her wings because she's floating. Nonsense collage has a lovely whimsical quality, I should try some because I also over plan art journaling....well....everything🙈. Your stories are so cute, you should definitely do a story book journal. Yes top down gluing saves a lot of hassle! Awesome. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

Dein überarbeitetes Journal ist so wirklich noch schöner! 😊 Kurz und knapp, tolle Tipps… 👍 Ich kenne die Theorie mit dem Raster, mir fällt es aber bei dieser Theorie sehr schwer, irgendwas weiteres als den Fokuspunkt der Collage davon abzuleiten. Keine Ahnung, warum das so ist… ich finde, es passt dann häufig bei mir nicht. Bei dir passt das alles super! Süße Geschichte, die du zu deiner Collage erfunden hast 😊. Liebe Grüße Nicole

I have never applied the rule of thirds to my work. I just go with what is pleasing to my eye. Have you ever tried holding that tracing paper “rule of thirds” grid to other finished pages in that journal to see if you had followed the rule on your own without the grid’s assistance?
