PRINCIPLES OF ARTS
1. BALANCE- creates a sense of stability and cohesiveness
2. CONTRAST- the arrangement of opposite elements (light vs. dark, rough vs.
smooth, small vs. large, etc….) in a composition so as to create visual interest.
3. EMPHASIS – used to make certain parts of an Artwork stand out. It creates the
center of interest or focal point.
4. PATTERN –the repetition of specific visual elements such as a unit of shape or
form. A method used to organize surfaces in a consistent regular manner.
5. RHYTHM- regular repetition of, or alternation in elements to create cohesiveness
and interest.
6. MOVEMENT- indicates the direction your eyes explore the work
7. UNITY- establishes an overall cohesion of the work
