1. What are the Principles of Art (Design)? Well, they are the ways that artists use the Elements of art in a work of art. You will be able to visually define each principle by the end of this unit! Credit for handout: www.awesomeartists.com

2. This is how we “visually describe” something: we draw a picture of what it means. Credit for drawing: www.meant4teachers.com

3. Pattern- When you repeat a design or motif over and over again. These four examples are different, but all demonstrate pattern. M.C.

4. Emphasis -It's the focus of the art work, the main idea. It's what you want viewers to see first. Christina’s World, Andrew Wyeth, 1938 Cow Skull: Red, White and Blue, Georgia O’Keefe 1931 Der Schrei der Natur, Edvard Munch, 1893 Altered Books- Making Pop- Ups - YouTube Altered Books- Making Pop- Ups - YouTube

5. Variety-An assortment of lines, shapes, colors and other elements of art in your art work. Paparazzi, Burton Morris The Kiss, Gustav Klimt, 1908-09 Sunflowers, Vincent Van Gogh, 1888

6. Unity-How the elements work together, fit together, so the art work looks complete The Dance of Youth, Pablo Picasso, 1962 Color Study: Squares with Concentric Circles, Wassily Kandinsky, 1913 Rue Montorgueil in Paris, Festival of June 30, 1878, Claude Monet, 1878.

7. Balance-this can by symmetrical, radial, asymmetrical, but it means organized in an even way. South rose window of Chartres Cathedral, Chartres, France Composition IV, Wassily Kandinsky, 1911 The Taj Mahal, Agra, India

8. Rhythm and Movement These two kind of go together. It is when you use the elements of art in repetition to create a sense of rhythm. This is not necessarily a PATTERN.
