Principle & Elements



In this art work, there is MOVEMENT and that is seen through the value and space. There is HARMONY and VARIETY from the shape and colours. Also, there is balance but, im not exactly sure what element(s) would support that principle.

  1. Great start, Sarah. To make it a bit easier, let's talk about only one principle & element at a time.
    In your first sentence, you said that there is movement because of value. Can you explain with another short sentence to describe how these concepts are shown in the painting?
    Next, describe how movement is created through the use of space.
    I would choose either harmony or variety to talk about, but not both. Since they mean different things, it's better to just focus on one.
    When you discuss balance, think about which type of balance you think your artwork shows. Is it symmetrical (same on both sides), asymmetrical, or radial (balanced around a centre point)? Once you decide, it might be easier to talk about any element(s) that is connected with balance.
