4. Notes Two-dimensional art: art that is flat such as drawings, paintings and prints Adhesives: substances, like glues, pastes or cements, which cause adhesion, or stickiness. (adhere: to stick securely) Collage: a picture or design created by adhering flat materials like newspaper, wallpaper, printed text and illustrations, photographs, cloth, string, etc., to a flat surface Rhythm: A visual tempo or beat. The principle of design that refers to the repetition of elements of art to produce the look and feel of movement. It is often achieved through the careful placement of repeated components which invite the viewer's eye to jump rapidly or glide smoothly from one to the next.

5. Rhythm and Repetition

6. Printed Numbers on Mixed Media Backgrounds

7. To Do Create two collages: 1.The first with papers found in magazines. - While you are looking for images look for ones that have similar colors and rhythmic images. - As you are cutting and gluing them down think of how you are arranging them to create a rhythm. 2.

Variety: A principle of design that uses diversity and change to increase the visual interest of the work. An artwork which makes use of many different colors, values, lines, textures, and shapes would reflect the artist's desire for variety. When there is too little variety, the result is monotony. When there is too much variety with no elements to unify a composition the result is chaos.
