HarmonIntroDesignPrinciples


1. As stated in the lecture, there are many ways artists unify their artwork to show symbolism and visuality. Individuality is a way artists unify their art work to show their differneciality and way of mind set then others, Some ways artists unify their art work is by the color they apply on their work how repetition of the color, shape , size and image. Artists show unity in their art by the combination and repetition of color and shape to resemble a fine work of art or symbolization.

An example of how this artwork is unified. This is an artwork by Alex Grey, the unification of this piece of art comes from the combination of a human and space. This shows how the human mind resembles, the mind itself can receive and release infinite ideas as how space/ galaxy is infinite symbolizing unity.



2.There are many artists that use asymmetric balance to form their art work. Asymmetrical balance is basically means no symmetry , meaning it has nothing to do with balance nor mirror image is shown. However, in an Asymmetrical balance artwork the elements are displayed so there can be a sense of balance shown. As seen in this art work , asymmetric balance is displayed by the shapes and colors being similar to show a sense of balance,  but overal it has no balance nor reflection to show symmtry.



3. Scale is relation of one thing to another, the exaggeration in size.  Scale can change the meaning of an artwork due to the way people acknowledge and admiring the art work by the way it is itself and its originality. For example this image shows how scale can change the meaning of an art work by its exaggeration in size, people not used to seeing an object that size.

  1. Hi Brian,
    Your examples are good, however in #1 & #2 you don't explain a clear understanding of how each principle is used- ask me next week in class if you want me to clarify...
