Which option is a correct example of form balance?

Correct answer: Balancing one heavy form with several smaller forms on the opposite side

The correct answer is A. Form balance is created by considering visual weight, size, darkness, position, and solidity within a composition. A large, dark, or solid form may look visually heavy. It can be balanced by placing several smaller or lighter forms on the opposite side. Their total physical size does not have to be identical because balance concerns how the eye experiences weight, not only measurement. A is correct because it gives a deliberate counterweight. B is usually unbalanced because the visual weight is concentrated on one side. C is wrong because visual weight is central to the idea of balance. D concerns cutting or separating a form from a surface, not arranging visual weight. Remember that balance need not always be symmetrical; unequal forms can still feel stable when their visual weights are arranged thoughtfully.
