  1. Building blocks of creating and interpreting Art Principles of Design

  2. What are the Principles of Design? • Used for creating and evaluating art • The Principles of Design are useful for organizing a composition • Some works of art contain some or none of the Principles of Design

  3. Movement • Associated with Rhythm, an arrangement of parts to create a sense of motion to the viewers eye. Movement can also move the viewer’s eye toward a focal point. • Attributes of Movement • Implied Movement: association of movement from a moving object (i.e. water, cars, people, etc) • Optical Movement: movement of the viewers eye across an area by using color or shapes

  8. Rhythm • Design principle based on the repetition of art elements. Developing rhythm can help unify a work of Art. • Attributes of Rhythm: • Rhythm can be planned or unplanned placement of repeating elements or objects. Varying the repetition of objects will create better interest.

  10. Contrast • The difference of art elements in a composition • Attributes of Contrast • Value: Amount of contrast • Color: Compliments • Shape: Variation of shape

  11. Emphasis • One element in a composition stands out from the rest of the composition • Attributes of Emphasis • Focal Point: the point in the composition where the viewer’s eye is attracted to first • Contrast: color and shape can create emphasis by changing its value

  12. Balance • The distribution of visual weight in an art work. • Attributes of Balance • Radial: type of balance that originates from a circular center • Formal: symmetrical balance • Informal: asymmetrical balance

  13. Unity • Describes the way the artwork is treated as a whole. It is when all the principles and elements work as a whole. • Attributes of Unity • Proximity: creating groups of objects • Similarity: making things similar to one another • Continuation: creating a flow of vision
