Notes on Compositions

Don't make most of your pages look like this, since it gets boring

The way they lead the eye is thru patterns and curves

Another way to do it is using BIG MEDIUM SMALL to group which one grabs your attention

Stuff like this is even prevalent in comic books and leads your eye to the page. If you don't have it, the viewer will get board and look at something else 

(comic is Batman White Knight by Sean Gordon Murphy)
