2. Movement:One of the principles of good design. • Movement is the path our eyes follow when we look at a work of art. The purpose of movement is to create unity in the artwork with eye travel. This can be achieved by using repetition, rhythm, and action.

3. REPETITIONThe use of repetition to create movement occurs when elements which have something in common are repeated. Giacomo Balla Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash 1912 How does this artist use repetition to show movement?

4. Rhythm The result of repetition which leads the eye from one area to another. Marcel Duchamp Nude Descending a Staircase 1912 Jackson Pollack - Blue Poles, 1953
