When you look at an image, you don’t see everything equally. Your brain decides what matters first.

When you look at an image, something stands out first.

👉 That’s not an accident.

It’s called visual hierarchy.

🧠 What Is Visual Hierarchy?

It’s the order your eyes follow:

1. First thing you notice
2. Second
3. Third

👀 What Controls It?

Artists use:

• Size → bigger = more important
• Color → brighter = more noticeable
• Contrast → stronger difference = more attention
• Position → center often wins

🎯 Why It Matters

Without hierarchy:

• Everything competes
• Nothing stands out

With hierarchy:

• Your eye is guided
• The message is clear

✏️ Try This

Look at an image:

• What do you see first?
• Why that, and not something else?
