To illustrate how an art element would be organized by an art principle, think of a painting where most of the colors are greens and blues and painted in thick horizontal bands filling up the canvas. The principles of a rt are like organizing artistic tools that give more meaning to the elements of art, and ultimately the visual composition, but what are the elements of art? There are seven widely known art elements, namely color, value, shape, form, line, space, and texture. This is closely related to patterns and consists of duplicating motifs in a visual composition to add emphasis, create movement, or character. This relates to sequences or arrangements of different motifs that can be for decoration or to create movement, or other effects. This depicts the size differences between two different types of subject matter. This depicts the size differences between parts of a subject in a visual composition. This is related to all the parts of a visual composition working together in unison. This creates a difference and gives a fresh change to visual compositions through different art elements. This is when art elements are applied similarly and correlate with the overall composition to create a visual harmony. This refers to how well all the art elements are applied in a visual composition and referred to as the “distribution of visual weight” in an artwork. This is related to movement and pattern, which can be arranged in a variety of ways to create desired visual effects. This creates different effects that lead the viewer’s gaze around the composition making it more interesting and engaging. This is utilized to draw a viewer’s attention to the main subject matter or focal point. These principles are also referred to as the principles of design. There are several principles of art, namely emphasis, movement, rhythm, balance, harmony, variety, unity, proportion, scale, pattern, and repetition.
2.1 The Difference Between Contrast and VarietyĬontrast is one of the art principles, but before we discuss the question, “what is contrast in art?”, we will provide a brief overview of the principles of art, which will provide a deeper understanding within a broader context of the composition of visual art.
