Find the "S" the Serpentine Design

Really look at this picture.
No really look. Can you see the  patterns of the serpentine in the water against the water lilies? There are no hard edges. Only interlocking color and flowers and pads. It's the "S" design.

 This reminds me so much of someone else's water lilies. The negative space of water versus the green lily pad. The reflections of the trees and sky the floating pads.

In the foreground the grasses seem to blend into waters edge,

If you create an "S" shape with clouds or your roads or even the water in a picture it's way more interesting.

One of the first lessons I learned in art class was to look and find the serpentine shape. So I would say learn to really see, and find more "S" in the paintings and designs we create.

I hope this helps with better compositions, Uncle Bud.
