For this image, I chose to begin at the upper left hand corner, draw the focus to the bottom (and perhaps to the right, as the circles trail off into smaller sized ones), and lead the viewer's eyes back toward the center again. This was done using several proportioned sets of various-sized black circles arranged in a linear fashion diagonally down the page. The white circles (again, proportioned similarly as the black circles) were then stacked atop the sets of black circles to give those black circles an appearance of depth.
Design elements: Contrast, repetition.
As for this image, I chose to bring the viewer's eyes from two opposite corners to the center. This time, I used the symmetry of the image, as illustrated through the placement of the white and black circles, to achieve this effect. I started by creating two identical black circles, then identical white circles to be attached to the black circles on the ends. Then, I created the larger black circle in the middle, and the two white circles that accompanied that. Each white circle has exactly one other white circle that bears the same dimensions.
Design elements: Symmetry, repetition, balance
