RULE OF THIRD

This picture is an example of 'The Rule Of Third" because if you imagine to divide
your picture area into thirds both horizontally and vertically,
you will see our subject

LINES

The lines on the buidling are just one thing in this photo like the man falling what an intersting picture but straight lines. Doesn't even look like a building really though.

BALANCE


The Balance in this photo is something else from black to white it has great balance if you ask me. This picture is really worth a thousand words. Great balance!

FRAMING

the framing in this picture is good if you closely it looks like the boy in the photo is going to hit the ball toward you. I think this photo has great framing.

AVIODING MERGES




The buildings in the background are to much some people might not know what the photographer was really taking a picture of.  Theirs so many things happening even the plane seconds before making contact.

ELEMENTS OF ART



 Lines are marks made by a pointed tool: brush, pencil, pen, etc. Lines can vary in width, direction, curvature, length, or color.
The lines was just a simple picture which was easy to decide.



Shapes are formed wherever the ends of a continuous line meet. Geometric shapes such as circles, triangles or squares have perfect, uniform measurements and don't often appear in nature. Organic shapes are associated with things from the natural world, like plants and animals.




I choose these images because we can see a lot of triangles.


Color wheels show the primary colors, secondary colors, and the tertiary (intermediate) colors. They also show the relationships between complementary colors across from each other, such as blue and orange; and analogous (similar or related) colors next to each other such as yellow, green, and blue. Black and white may be thought of as colors but, in fact, they are not. White light is the presence of all color; black is the absence of reflected light and therefore the absence of color.
Color in many ways but the like the bottom one because it looks pretty cool.

Value, or tone, refers to dark and light; the value scale refers to black and white with all gradations of gray in between.  Value contrasts help us to see and understand a two-dimensional work of art.

I choose these pics because the contrast is very clear and we can see the change of the values, light grey, grey, dark grey, light black...


Form describes objects that are three-dimensional, having length, width, and height.
This picture shows 3d and shading in the background.
The bee is such a good picture it look like its on my screen or something.  

 Texture can be rough, bumpy, slick, scratchy, smooth, silky, soft, prickly--the list is endless.  Texture refers to the surface quality, both simulated and actual, of artwork.
What has more texture then a brick wall? Nuff said

Space refers to distances or areas around, between, or within components of a piece. Space can be positive (white or light) or  negative (black or dark), open or closed,shallow or deep, and two-dimensional or three-dimensional. 
Watching the sky set to dark is quiet amazing.


The Principles of Design


Balance is the comfortable or pleasing arrangement of things in art.  There are three different types of balance: symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial. The human figure is symmetrically balanced; the same on the left and right side. The tree is asymmetrically balanced; its branches are not distributed equally on each side, but their total weight is balanced left and right. The sun is an example of radial balance; all its rays are equal in length from the center.

Contrast is created by using elements that conflict with one another. Often, contrast is created using complementary colors or extremely light and dark values. Contrast creates interest in a piece and often draws the eye to certain areas. It is used to make a painting look interesting.


Emphasis in the focal area of an artwork gives it 
importance.  An artist may stress some elements of the design over others. The eye of the viewer will focus on the area of emphasis or center of interest first, then take in the rest of the composition.

 

  Movement in an artwork means the artist is taking viewers on a trip through the work by means of lines, edges, shapes, and colors often leading to the focal area.  Movement is a visual flow through the composition. It can be the suggestion of motion in a design as you move from object to object by way of placement and position.  Directional movement can be created with a value pattern. It is with the placement of dark and light areas that you can move your attention through the format.


Patterns are made in art when the same shapes or elements are repeated again and again.  Pattern uses the elements of art in planned or random repetitions to enhance surfaces of paintings or sculptures.



Rhythm is the repetition of shapes, lines, and forms.  Rhythm is a movement in which some elements recurs regularly.  Like a dance, it will have a flow of objects that will seem to be like the beat of music.



Unity means that all elements in an artwork are in harmony.  Unity brings together a composition with similar units.  For example, if your composition was using wavy lines and organic shapes you would stay with those types of lines and not put in even one geometric shape.

The Masters of Black an White Photography is the best. All the picture are cool and all but the one with the tree and clouds by far the best photographic photo.

And the ones with the girl in class "Stephanie" are good to, i did find the background to be distracting and the one thats actually focused on her is great to.

One thing that could be improved would probably the information your giving is a lot to read although it might be important try to edit and make it shorter.
