Elements of Art
1. Line
On my way to the class, I found out a combination of straight line, cracked line, and a curved line.
2. Shape
Wondering around for the shopping, there was paper bags with tremendous shapes on them. Each shape combines together to form various images.
3. Color
It was wonderful to find out so many kinds of green colors on one tree.
4. Value
Brutus statue, which is the famous one in our Ohio Union, showed me rich value made by light on the metal.
5. Form
3-D formed standing mannequin with cloth on reveals solid form.
6. Texture
Tree is surely a common thing we pass by everyday, but as I look closer, its texture was a lot more interesting that I thought.
7. Space
With a large hall on the canter and several floors, Ohio Union shows unique space formats.
Principles of Design
8. Balance
As I start concentrating on the elements and principles around me, I could find out symmetrical balance from the architecture.
9. Contrast
Peeking the door just a bit can make a dramatic contrast with the help of the light.
10. Emphasis
Exit sigh is everywhere, flashing bold red light to give an emphasis.
11. Movement
Escalator, which usually move our body to other floor, can also lead our eyes to make a movement.
12. Pattern
Pattern is everywhere, even on the hallway of my dorm that I walk over every day.
13. Proportion
Folders on the shelves could form geometrical image by taking proportion for each colors.
14. Repetition
I found out repeating zigzag lines, forming a decent design on the paper bag.
15. Unity
With the unity of nature and man-made things, it forms a good view of the High street.
