HarmonyI think this picture shows lots of

harmony. The way there is only

one shape used, the square. The

thing that makes this artwork

unique and have harmony is the

colors and the way the go

together.

I think that this

piece shows

harmony because

the way that the

colors flow and the

way it is not over

done in the colors.

UnityWhen I saw this piece I was knew that it

showed good unity. The way the colors flow

and the shapes just are very unified.

Harmony is the combination of simultaneous elements of artwork that is pleasing to the viewer. Unity is being joined together as a whole. In art it

is something that connects the drawing together.

In the picture on the right I thought that it shows unity in the way the flowers and colors flow together and how it looks unified.

Repetition is the pattern repeating again and again.

Balance is an even distribution of design in a

painting.Emphasis is were your eye goes first on the painting and is the main point.

H.U.R.B.E (cont.)

In the picture above, the

way the triangles are

repeated in different colors

is really cool. The solid

background makes them

stand out very well.

In this painting

the way the lines and

the colors are what is

repetitive. I love the

color scheme that is used

because it makes the

painting flow well.

Repetition

BalanceThis picture below is very balanced. The way the

repeated are very cool. The painting is semetrical

and the way the color is

repeated is balanced well.

In this painting the way

that the tree is in two different

colors and looks balance is great.

The balance in this picture shows

the way that the tree looks better

t then if colors where

not like that.

Emphasis

In this picture the focal point (emphasis point) is the large spot in the middle of the painting. It shows the color and helps make the painting more interesting.

In the picture on the right the emphasis point is the iris. The eye

is given more attention because of the pop of color.

My Art Work!!!!!!!!!

Tessellation

In my tessellation I made a pattern with four swiggly lines on each side of the tessellation. In the middle is a big circle

and on the outside there are two hearts in each corner. This is not one of my favorites. When I was finished I was not as pleased with it as I hoped but it turned out

pretty good.

Can: This is one of my favorite paintings

that I made. I love the colors that I used

and the way it is balanced. I made this

because I love making unique patterns and

each circle has it own unique pattern that

can’t be duplicated by hand. My favorite

circle is the green one. It was the first one I

did and it is crowded and looks cool up

close.

Panels: Panel was the first thing that we did. We

had to make a design with only straight lines, one with

only curvy line, and one with a focal point. My favorite

panel that I did is the center one. If you can’t tell it is

roses with a red heart as the focal point.

OVER ALL I HAD A LOT OF FUN THIS SEMESTER. MY FAVORITE PIECE THAT I DID IS THE WORD ART. I HAD SO MUCH FUN SHADING AND DOING PATTERNS. I THINK MY LEAST FAVORITE PIECE WAS MY BAG. AFTER I PUT THE

TESSELLATION'S ON MY BAG I MADE THE MISTAKE OF PUTTING SOME WEIRD DESIGN IN THE MIDDLE. IN MY HEAD THE IDEA WAS GOING TO LOOK REALLY COOL, BUT IT TURNED OUT NOW SO WELL.

MY ART WORK (CONT.)

Word Art!!

This is a picture of my word art. This was my favorite project to do because I got to play with pattern boards. It was cool to shade the robot to make h i m l o o k 3 - D . T h e background is simple and fun. The dots are buttons and are sort of the focal point of the design. The color scheme I chose is simple. It is pencil gray with green and red. It is simple but eye catching. If I had to redo this project I would redo the legs. I made them before I made anything else. I learned h o w t o u s e p a t t e r n templets and how to shade things to make them look 3-D. One of the reasons I like this project so much because every time I got to

class I was excited to work on it to get to my final goal of putting it together. The hardest part for me was gluing it together. This is my all time favorite design in this class.

BAG DESIGN: I THINK THIS IS MY LEAST FAVORITE PIECE. I LIKE THE TESSELLATION AND THE COLOUR BUT I DON’T LIKE THE DESIGN IN THE MIDDLE. I MADE THE COLOUR LIKE THIS BECAUSE I LIKE THE WAY THE COLORS CONTRAST.

For this article/reflection I have to chose a project we did and connect it to the real world around us. I have chosen the can design.

In the real world can designs are very important because creative can designs and special edition cans are very attractive and they help get customers.

In the picture above a designer was trying to target a certain audience. Can you guess what the audience is? Well it’s teenagers. The way that the design is formed and the way it has the words and drawings and looks like a sketch that a kid would make in there binder or notebook.

On the cans above the design is targeted to attract women. The way the face is and the lips are coloured

you can help but get that it is targeting women. The can design was a great way to attract women to coke.

The cans above are targeted to bring people of all ages during summer to buy them for a barbique or a beach party.

Can Designs are very important because they help the designer get a job and it helps for advertisment.
