ART APPRECIATION

1. Look from the internet the examples of each principle of art and write a
description of each principle.

Balance - refers to the feeling of being stable as a result of an object's indicated weight. A symmetrical,
asymmetrical, or radial balance is one of three forms of balance.

Asymmetrical balance - occurs when various sorts of elements work together to create a pleasing visual
balance.

Radial balance - The distribution of elements in all directions around a central point.

Proportion - The ratio of one art element to another. It's crucial to remember the link between different
aspects of the composition so that the scale of your artwork is always visually appealing. For instance, if
you were drawing your best friend sitting in a chair, the chair's size should be proportional to your
friend's size. The graphic below depicts the various size proportions of several fruits.

Emphasis- When one aspect of a piece of art stands out more than the others. This gives the impression
of importance and is utilized to convey a message or emotion. Emphasis in your artwork adds variation.
The ideas are demonstrated in this image of a single yellow pear in a dish of red apples.

Variety - By slightly modifying or combining different parts in a composition, the counterweight to


harmony and aesthetic interest is created. Contrast, change, elaboration, and diversified elements can
all be used to generate this effect. When dealing with diversity, it's crucial to think about how the
elements interact so that the composition maintains its harmony and coherence. Variety is illustrated in
this photograph of several fruits and vegetables.

Harmony - is the usage of similar elements, which follows from diversity. Similar colors, forms, and sizes
of objects, for example, could be considered. It's all about repetition and establishing a connection
between the many aspects. This establishes a sense of flow by establishing a connection between the
things.
Movement- This represents the path your eye follows as you look at the art in what order does your eye
travel? When you apply the emphasis, it usually indicates you begin with this element and work your
way away from it.

Rhythm - This can also be considered a pattern-object relationship. The employment of regular, evenly
dispersed parts in a rhythmic pattern they could be slow, rapid, smooth, or jerky tells you something
about the emotions evoked.

Scale - is similar to proportion in that it is concerned with the size of objects in relation to what you
would expect them to be in reality.

If an object appears in its natural scale, it is the size we would expect to see it in.

Unity - not to be mistaken with harmony, refers to the work's overall cohesiveness. You can accomplish
this by grouping things in whatever way you like. When you look at a group of things, any similarity will
help to reinforce your sense of togetherness.

Repetition - A repeated pattern of shapes, colors, or other elements. Objects may be repeated in a
pattern that gradually shrinks or changes color it's crucial to know where the pattern begins and ends!
Patterns are often associated with sentiments of safety and comfort.

All of these principles of art combine and contrast to produce the visual impressions that we respond to.
We can learn more about the goal or meaning of art by dismantling the elements.
