      1. What is it?

        Annotations:

        • Balance is defined as the combinations that give equilibrium and stability to a piece of work. There are three types of balance: Symmetric, asymmetric and radial

        1. What is it?

          Annotations:

          • Rhythm is given when the elements are repeated, it is meant to interest a viewer to get caught by a pattern, artists plan to include it in their work through the use of sounds, lines,forms,colors,and more to guide the spectator
        2. Harmony
          1. What is it?

            Annotations:

            • The harmony refers to the sensation of unity, of something belonging to a whole, that nothing is out of place in a piece.   It is meant to avoid violent or rough irruptions that cause a perception of chaos in the spectator, for this, the harmony is used to make gradual changes
          2. Proportion
            1. What is it?

              Annotations:

              • Proportion tells us how the elements of a piece relate to the whole or to it's parts. For example, a sculpture compared to a human, or a boat compared to the sea
            2. Emphasis
              1. What is it?

                Annotations:

                • Emphasis highlights the differences between the elements of a piece. This principle is considered as a focal point where the spectator's attention is directed.
              2. Variety
                1. What is it?

                  Annotations:

                  • Variety avoids a bland or tedious image, the artist purposely introduces variety of shapes and elements to motivate the spectator's interest, Harmony and variety need to work in a waty they have a delicate balance.
                2. Gradation
                  1. What is it?

                    Annotations:

                    • The gradation happens when the author combines elements to introduce a number of small changes that together build up a great variation. Small changes can be given through manipulating the intensity and types of light. The point is to show that something is changing, not in an abrupt but in a soft way , sometimes even imperciptibly
