In bilateral symmetry, one side becomes the mirror image of the other side. The picture above creates balance by taking a single image, repeating it, and flipping it over in order to form a mirror image. This creates bilateral symmetry.

Asymmetrical Balance

There are several different ways to show asymmetrical balance. In this image, the balance is achieved by visual texture and pattern. The neutral colors and smooth items leads people to assume that the figures surrounding the faces is slick metal.

In Radial balance, all the elements radiate out from a central point. In the image above, the center can be found in the middle of the woman's face and the dandelion petals circle out from that point.
