This document discusses several principles of line including balance, proportion, repetition, dominance, contrast, harmony, variety, symbolic meaning, composition, and direction. Balance is demonstrated through symmetrical placement of stones and lines. Repetition is shown through curved lines that create a sense of perspective. Dominance is conveyed by the larger size and central positioning of one figure over others. Contrast is seen through differences in maturity, addition of black/white, and depth. Harmony exists between images that incorporate concepts like closure and symmetry. Variety is represented in natural structures having different tones, tints and curves. Symbolic meaning is interpreted through standardized symbols. Composition incorporates elements such as depth, organic shapes, perspectives, and volume. Direction is implied by

1. Principles of lineWe will talk about:Balance , proportion , repetition , dominance , contrast , harmony ,variety, symbolic meaning , composition , and direction.

2. balanceFrom this ring ,we can see balance by the way the artist place the stone and lines the shape are very symmetrical.The walking on the rail , give us the concept of balance form his ham stretch while walking, his movement very symmetrical to the rail way.This is a very common representation of justice , and justice always on balance.

3. proportionThe chicken look more big then the man , it’s a very sense of proportion . In the artist give more impression to the chicken then the man. “Opera” in big character stand of giving intention to the eye when looking or reading.The artist do not line up anything but you can still see the figure of a man and a dog.

4. repetitionRepetition of curve ,horizontal , vertical from the construction , on the image give us a figure of perspective.Illusion of proximity, asymmetric lines form this repetition.Proximity , very symmetry , vertical and horizontal lines

5. dominanceThe girl ,she dominant when look at a her size ,position on the picture ;and the man on the corner with a small figure.Naturally it’s a small type of dog and a big one .naturally what big is heavy by illusion.Simply looking ,the lift circle is more heavy then the right on ,dominance.

6. contrastThe first leave is maybe immature and the second one it’s aged leave , this contrast is natural.Here , the contrast has been creating by adding black and creating depth.On the neutral , by adding white , contrast is justify.

7. harmonyOn those 3 images ,even we pick up other concept like closure , proximity , symmetry ,vertical and horizontal lines , they still in harmony.

8. variety When ,we looking at those images ,we can say life has a variety of same thing that we know , such as fruit and those precious stones . One type of stone but different tone , tint ,curve lines , they have a very organics structure.

9. Symbolic meaningFigures just interpreting same thing we normally know by using symbols P stand for parking , the second one for disable and the third one for road work.

10. Compositionblack and white ,sense of depth ,organic shape ,curve lines ,perspectives ,sense of volume ,space, color and tone

11. DirectionDolphins , cars and water from the river , they are movement implicating direction
