Assignment #5: Elements and Principles of Design


The basis of all design is the arrangement of the elements of a work of art, using the design principles. It is the bringing together of various components into one area and arranging them in such a way as to create a composition, layout or design that is both unified and pleasing to look at. For example every artist whether they realize it or not is familiar with the elements of design.

Directions: For each of the Elements of Designs, you will research online of an image that represents each of the elements. Cite and label each of the elements.
