🔷 2D Shape-Based Composition Drawing Questions

1. Create a balanced composition using only geometric shapes like circles, triangles, rectangles, and squares. Use repetition and alignment to show harmony.

2. Design a composition using organic shapes inspired by nature—such as leaves, waves, clouds, and flower petals. Arrange them to depict a natural scene or abstract pattern.

3. Imagine and draw a cityscape using only manmade 2D shapes, such as windows, doors, bricks, wheels, and signboards. Focus on perspective and proportion.

4. Create a symmetrical design using both geometric and organic 2D shapes. You can choose a butterfly, mandala, or floral theme.

5. Compose an abstract artwork using a mix of 2D geometric forms (like hexagons, ellipses) and organic shapes (like tendrils or splash forms). Make sure the composition fills the space meaningfully.

6. Design a decorative pattern for a textile or wallpaper using only 2D shapes—repeat circles, triangles, and spirals to create rhythm and movement.

7. Draw a composition based on musical instruments using simplified 2D manmade forms like rectangles for guitars, circles for drums, and lines for strings.
