Proportion principle of art

This proportion design implies the man to be the large hand. Our eyes focus more on the proportion on the hands because of the way it stands out amongst the red background.

The artist uses scale through showing the viewer a known small animal, like a chick, as significantly larger especially when compared to the man. The artist takes something the viewer knows and makes it unfamiliar.

This drawing shows proportion, but and uneven use of proportion. His head is bigger than his body and that is proportionally incorrect
