So here's a neat trick. Just finished a diptych of a portrait of me and my brother, complete with frame/box. Originally I had them like this:



I brought it in to class for our final review of our work. I was happy with it but it didn't feel like a pair. The teacher suggested I flip the positioning of the image (I didn't want them facing each other before because I thought it would be cheesey/dumb). So I did...and viola:



Completely different image. It kind of blew my mind how much different is, now it's pretty much the psychological double-portrait I wanted. The expressions, light and everything works so much better.

Diptych 21"x15" (including frame, which is not shown)
