2. We are going to use 5 principles of
design:
โข Balance
โข Contrast
โข Rhythm
โข Texture
โข Colour
3. Balance
โข The distribution of elements across the
design
There are two types of balance that you need
to know:
โข Symmetrical (we will focus just on this one)
โข Asymmetrical
4. Symmetrical Balance
โข Symmetry is achieved by placing elements in a very
even way. A line-of-symmetry can often be
identi๏ฌed.

6. Rhythm
โข Rhythm in art is best described using the words
pattern and repetition. Think of it as a visual beat

7. Texture
โข With 3D art is is the actual way it feels. With 2D
art it is the โvisual feelingโ.

8. Colour
โข Colour is produced when light, striking an object,
is re๏ฌected back to the eye. When we talk about
colour we refer to the hue, intensity and value.
