Elements of Art

Line: I used an air vent to show how lines can be used to create more complex shapes and how it can lead the eye around the image.
Value: I used this black and clear Swarovski crystal duck to show how light has different value, I also edited the image to create more contrast from the light and dark of the image.
Forms: This is the base of a lamp. It is a three-dimensional shape that shows depth.
Shapes: This is actually a pattern on a pillow, it is a combination of lines to form square shapes.
Space: The distance between the circles and circular snowflakes shows space between objects in the image.
Color: This displays a monochromatic color scheme. It is wall paper!
Texture: This is also a pillow, however it not only shows the ribbed texture of the fabric, but the color strokes creates a texture that is only seen.

Principles of Art

Balance: The elements of this standing lamp with the shadows creates balance through symmetry and proportion.
Contrast: This is the contrast between light and dark is actually created within the threads of this sweater. The contrast leads the viewers eyes around the image.
Movement: The crossing arms are creating movement as well as the image from the point of view of the driver seat in the car creates movement.
Emphasis: The way that the text is framed, it creates an emphasis on that area of the composition.
Pattern: The texture and shapes are repeated throughout the fabric on the couch.
Proportion: The elements inside the clock are in sizes proportionate to each other.
Unity: This photograph shows the unity of the image to the message with principles of balance, movement, emphasis and proportion in harmony.
