Here yall go Principles of Design-Arrange the elements of art into a composition Composition-The way an artwork is arranged Movement-The path the viewer's eye takes through the artwork, often to areas of focus Balance-The visual weight of each element is distributed in a way that makes the composition feel stable Symmetrical Balance-The artwork could be divided in half and both sides would look the same Asymmetrical Balance-A type of balance in which the two sides of the artwork are different, but still feel stable Unity-Using similar or repeated elements in an artwork to create consistency (marks,mood,colors,theme,etc) Variety-Using many different elements to create interest or contrast in an artwork Rhythm-Repeating elements in order to create a feeling of organized movement Pattern-A repeated design Scale-The comparison of one object to another in terms of size Proportion-Ratio; comparing parts of a whole in terms of size Emphasis-What we focus on in an artwork. Usually the largest or most details areas Contrast-The amount of difference between elements Value contrast-The amount of difference between values High contrast-There is a large difference between the lightest and darkest areas- edges look harder Low Contrast-There is not much difference between the lightest and darkest areas - Edges look softer Juxtaposition-Combining two or more unlike things to show contrast

Thanks! One point about variety more important in art that thinking a variety of different elements is variation amongst similar elements. Each fence post can be a slightly different height, lean different directions, be lighter or darker than it’s neighbors, have variation in color or temperature, or in line work etc to be more visually interesting. 😊

@23ablank 2 жыл бұрын

One really helpful exercise is to limit yourself to a working area of a 3"x3" square - and then just use the shape of a square to try to explore each principle. For example you could use a large square next to a small square for contrast. You could also crop the square off the artboard to create a different shape like a triangle that could help create some tension in the composition .. or use multiple squares to create rhythm. You can also assign yourself 3-5 compositions per principle to really push yourself to explore the potential. Hope that helps!

@jesciahopper 3 жыл бұрын

I can't speak for every artist ever, but many well-known artists are formally trained, which means they learn all of these concepts and seek to apply them (whether consciously or subconsciously) in their work! It's helpful to read artist statements or other writings by artists about their work, as you are able to see their thought process about creation :)

art teachers please stop forcing us to watch these videos when all these vocab dont mean anything if you dont actually know how to use it in your works. Composition is more than ticking boxes. An art piece isnt good Just because you can tick a bunch of art terms it has. Help your students by teaching them the fundamentals. Line, anatomy, value, shapes, etc.. Learning how to use those things. Learning how to balance compositions. Centered compositions work and have been used professionally. Art has no rules. Rather than tell them the different kinds of lines, and all these different vocab words. It's not going to make the student learn how to make better art at all. its like telling people to shade a sphere to learn how to shade. they are not going to understand planes and forms just by copying someone elses drawing of a sphere.

@rhsart-mclean 3 жыл бұрын

Everyone learns differently. While it might not make sense to you, some students need the words first. And some teachers are more about art appreciation and analysis than studio skills. As are many students.

@jesciahopper 3 жыл бұрын

They are very similar! Movement would be marks that direct your eye throughout the composition; it could be repetitive, or it could be one dynamic mark/object. Rhythm needs repetitive marks/objects/colors - think of it as visualizing a beat, like literal musical rhythm.

Can anyone tell me what's the difference between movement and rhythm

@Kye456 2 жыл бұрын

Rhythm is the repetition that helps unify art. Think of how once a concert ends, everyone claps at the same time. Movement is exactly how it sounds. Movement represents direction. Or implied direction. For example, if an artist drew a picture of a road. Movement can also be represented through contrast. Imagine standing in front of a lit room down into a dark hallway. The movement portrayed here is the movement of light as it begins to dull. I hope this helps! :)

@moilar7985 2 жыл бұрын

Rhythm is similar to Pattern, but it's different in that the repeated elements differ. For example, repeating stripes of the same two colors is a pattern - but if the width of the stripes varies based on the shade of the color, it creates a rhythm. Movement is less visual and more psychological (at least as it was explained to me). When a viewer first sees a piece of art, what areas or elements draw the eye the most? How does it guide the viewer to look around at the different parts of the artwork? Usually the background of a piece is darker or greyer than the foreground, so your eyes are likely drawn to the lightest or brightest colors first. From there, lines and shapes (or the implication of such) create a path for the viewer to follow. The artist can deliberately create this movement with the arrangement of visual elements to indicate to the viewer what the most important parts of the artwork are.
