The image to the left is the perfect example of the syntactical guideline of balance. There is a perfect centered, and even appearance of this image, as the people in it are evenly balancing the world up with their pitchforks. It gives the image a sense of normalcy, at least visually. The reason I chose this particular image is because of it's stylistic qualities. I am really into sketching right now, and a picture like this really appeals to me. I like bold lines combined with shadowing. Since this appears to be a french cartoon, the analogy seems to be that even though we balance the world together, we are still going to do so using pitchforks.

This image conveys a message entirely different. Although it uses bold lines, it also uses bright colors and neglects to use the syntactical guide of balance. This picture seems to be using everything else but balance. The male figure in the image is wearing only one shoe, has fallen off his bike, and is in complete disarray. There are hot dogs, peppers, the letter "W" and even a strange little angry baby angel up in the corner.
