Composition-the way elements are arranged and balanced on the surface.

•  Balance-­‐the  equal  weight  of  visual  elements.  •  Unity-­‐Recurring  elements  such  as  line,  value,  shapes,  working  together  to  create  a  unified  whole.      

•  Variety-­‐CreaAve  tension  and  change  to  the  recurring  elements  

•  Focal  Points-­‐focal  points  are  achieved  through  line,  color,  light,  size  etc.  

•  Movement-­‐  How  your  eye  travels  across  surface.

Visual  Paths  of  Movement  

•  Our  eyes  tend  to  try  and  join  together  elements  in  a  composiAon  that  are  similar  in  some  way.    RepeAAon  of  similar  elements  creates  visual  paths  of  movement.    

•  If  a  parAcular  shape,  mark  making,  value,  etc.  is  repeated  throughout  composiAon,  our  eyes  will  move  back  and  forth  between  the  shapes.    

•  Space  in  between  these  shapes  allows  your  eye  to  move  around  the  surface.
