Elements and Principles of Art

 



 

In art methods we learned about the different elements and principles of art. Within learning the elements and principles we had to create a PowerPoint using all the different elements we see throughout the environment.  Here are five pictures that I displayed in my PowerPoint.  With the first picture I displayed balance. The second picture I displayed lines, lines can go in several different direction such as the ones displayed in the picture. The third picture displays color.  This displays color because the picture shows off several different colors that fade in and out of each other.  The fourth picture displays unity because all the circles  are the same size. The fifth and final picture displays repetition.  This displays repetition because the same line is repeated over and over throughout the pattern.



This type of activity can be used in other subjects just as it was used in my arts method.  One way it can be used is to discuss science.  Science teacher can have student do a project like this to display different animals habitats.  Student can go out and take pictures of a certain animals habitat.  Students can then journal their results.
