Diagonal or Vertical

Did you ever notice in nature that so many things are leaning one way or another?

Take this mountain ( as if you could) but really notice how the indents slope to the left. The lay of the land or the slopes are creating valleys to the left side. 

The reason I bring it up is in art it is more interesting to slope or lean your main subject it creates in your minds eye to find the reason or the why. Where is this thing going if it is a tree or a flower stem, what ever it might be.

The as a good artist I lean the other subjects the smalls the little things to the other side creating a different feel.

Not ever subject in your  paintings lean that would be dumb but flowers trees and other subject can and do lean.

Dip in kids and make it lean, and get your brushes wet.
