Time, no changes or Amateur Footwork

I've been thinking about symmetry and it's importance in modern physics.

This situation changed dramatically in the 20th century beginning with Einstein. Einstein’s great advance in 1905 was to put symmetry first, to regard the symmetry principle as the primary feature of nature that constrains the allowable dynamical laws. Thus the transformation properties of the electromagnetic field were not to be derived from Maxwell’s equations, as Lorentz did, but rather were consequences of relativistic invariance, and indeed largely dictate the form of Maxwell’s equations. This is a profound change of attitude. Lorentz must have felt that Einstein cheated. Einstein recognized the symmetry implicit in Maxwell’s equations and elevated it to a symmetry of space-time itself. This was the first instance of the geometrization of symmetry. Ten years later this point of view scored a spectacular success with Einstein’s construction of general relativity. The principle of equivalence, a principle of local symmetry—the invariance of the laws of nature under local changes of the space-time coordinates—dictated the dynamics of gravity, of space-time itself.

I’ve always - albeit loosely - considered symmetry while producing this series of paintings. The distribution of elements, brush strokes (styles & weights), colors, and patterns trending toward an overall compositional balance. This painting pushes that concept a bit, by shifting the red layer over 7 inches from center the left and the blue layer over 7 inches from center to the right. Check out the slideshow below for detail images and let me know in the comments what you think.

I’m also on the fence regarding the best orientation for the piece, I’m partial to the third one below.
