Understanding the Principles of Design

Hello fellow art students; sent here by teachers.

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

everyone is here from art since your teacher didn't want to teach you themselves??

POV: your watching this for school

Sometimes art teachers know the best videos for explaining art principles to students who only are used to watching things on their cell phones.

I can get my Grade 5 art teacher feeling relief because this grown man finally got what she couldn't get him to understand when he was a boy. Thank you.

Nicely Understand. Thanks . Its realy helpful

Great upload. Thank for sharing!

Who else is doing this for an art assignment?

amazing art educational video. A joy to watch! Thank you!

Thank you so much!!! I'm trying to help an artist friend of mine with doing some descriptions/ editorial work on her website...and because I'm not an artist, I knew I needed a crash course in art terminology. Reading articles on the subject matter honestly made my head hurt. Thank you soooo much for breaking this down into lamen's terms for me! You're a life saver!

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. 😊

pov: you didn't pay attention in Art class so you came to youtube to find the video so you could do the note's.

thank you, well done, using for my art class.

I'm here for art class as well, and whoever reads this or not have a lovely good day and take care✌✌

11:30 that duck is actually real, I believe. If I remember correctly, the rubber duck is roughly 6 stories tall and called Mama Duck. She lives in Canada.

I finally understand. I feel like I can create with intention on a different level now. Thank you for this video. Thnk u.

currently learning more about the visual side of web development and this video has been so insightful to learn the fundaments of design, thank you!!

So yall here watching this for class too huh?

great examples . it's so easy to learn that way. thanks for it
