2. Principles of DesignPrinciples of Design  Balance  Emphasis  Contrast  Pattern  Rhythm  Movement  Unity

3. Balance Balance is the equalizing visual forces, or elements, in a work of art. There are 3 types of balance: Symmetrical – both sides of the artwork carry equal weight Carter Smith

4. Katie Scott

5. Asymmetrical – one part of the artwork carries more weight than the other parts. Overall balance is achieved by placing many smaller items opposite the larger ones.

7. Radial – the image radiates out from a central point in the artwork Andy Goldsworthy

8. Ernst Haeckel

9. Emphasis Emphasis calls attention to a point in the artwork. The point of interest is usually in contrast to the surrounding space.

10. Contrast is a technique for creating a focal point by using differences in elements. Contrast Kerry James Marshall

11. Contrast can also be made by creating differences in line, value, texture or size. Gerhard Richter over-painted photographs

12. LOW Contrast

13. Pattern The repeating of an object of symbol throughout the artwork creates a pattern. The repetition may be organized or random.

16. Rhythm Rhythm is the principle that indicates movement by the repetition of elements. Visual rhythm is perceived through the eyes and is created by repeating positive spaces separated by negative spaces.

18. Movement is the creation of the illusion of action or physical change in position. Movement

20. UNITY Unity is the quality of wholeness or oneness that is achieved through the effective use of the elements and principles of design.

24. Mixed MediaMixed Media  Used for hundreds of years  Works of art that are put together using different media for a composition such as collage, photography, digital media or painting made from whatever the artist chooses to use.  Artist Edgar Degas used ink with charcoal and pastels and Leonardo da Vinci would also combine media.  Modern day mixed media is associated with the Cubist development of collages early in the 20th century by artists Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso.  By assembling diverse elements the Cubists made three dimensional pieces starting in 1912.  Using paint, glue, wood and table cloth fringe Picasso created his work the "Still Life" in 1914.  The mixed media practice continued with the Surrealist movement. Surrealism was the movement that represented the subconscious mind through creating fantastic images. This was done by placing ideas together that appear to contradict each other. The use of mixed media became more prevalent during the 1950's, 1960's and is still in use.

Edgar DegasEdgar Degas  (July 19, 1834 – September 27, 1917)  French artist famous for his work in painting, sculpture, printmaking and drawing.  One of the founders of Impressionism although he rejected the term, and preferred to be called a realist.  A superb draughtsman, he is especially identified with the subject of the dance, and over half his works depict dancers.  His portraits are considered to be among the finest in the history of art.

38. Mixed Media ProjectMixed Media Project  Brainstorm ideas and do thumbnail sketches.  Understand the principles of design and brainstorm personal choices to link to each visual representation (ie: Pattern=Obsessions, Contrast=Arguments over beliefs, Emphasis=Determination and focus, Rhythm=Busyness or Lazyness, Balance=Religion and family, Movement=Leaving a group, Unity= Inclusion)  Choose one personal choice that parallels the guiding organization ideas for each principle. Complete visual research to collect imagery needed for your compositions.  You will complete one combined work to depict each of their choices to help communicate the idea while using organization of the principles of design (total of 7 pieces).  Each work must use three or more different types of media (colored pencil, paint, collage, digital media, ink, photography, charcoal, etc.), one has to be digital media.  You will assess your work using a grading rubric and complete the lesson with an artist statement about your work.
