"Talking about straight against curves with some students and wanted to share some examples. Often, placing straight lines against curved can make a design more dynamic. You can dial up or down the contrast depending on how graphic/ dynamic you want your design to be. For “The Secret of Kells,”Tomm Moore, and Ross Stewart developed the visual language with Barry Reynolds. The stronger/harder characters would often have more straights, and more contrast in straight vs curves. Weaker/ softer character would often have more curves and less contrast. Though Tomm admits that much of this is intuitive. Posing and drawing characters until they feel right."
