The artist who created this piece did a good job of balancing the tension between the life like tree in the center and the cartoon like stars and clouds around the outside of picture. They also did a good job of using figure ground reversal with the globe in the center. The fact that this piece is in black and white really brings the picture together. Because if the picture were to be created in color the tree and world in the middle would not seem so creepy and eerie, thus not holding your eye to the point of focus. Also, since the artist did put the tree in bigger perspective it creates a bigger area of focus and gives the artist more room to create the texture on the tree. Although, the tree is posted in the center of the picture which makes the picture become stagnant, if the artist were to make the area of focus of center it might hold your eye longer.
