Answer 1

Reed is creating **formal balance** in his drawing. This type of balance, also known as symmetrical balance, occurs when elements are arranged evenly on both sides of a central axis, creating a sense of harmony and stability. Since he is drawing an accurate representation of the human body from head to toe in the center, it naturally lends itself to this type of balance.
