Elements and Principles

Elements and Principles in Everyday Life

For this project, we had to go on a scavenger hunt looking for different elements and principles. We were to put together a presentation using the photographs of the different elements and principles found. Here are my top five photographs that I took.

Prinicple: Unity

  

• This is what it looks like when colors and objects work together. 
• This is a picture of a fabric book. This picture also exhibits color and pattern. 

 

 

 

Principle: Movement

 

• Visual movement to follow throughout the artist work. 
• This is a picture of a box I found outside.

 

 

 

 

 

Element: Shape

• Any object that connects has two dimensions
• Organic Shape - natural object
• Geometric Shape - simple shapes found in geometry 
• This photograph represents and organic shape. It is a picture of a Gerber Daisy.

Elements: Texture

•  The way a surface appears. (bumpy, smooth, and rough)

•  This is a picture of a bar that a friend had made me. 

 

• The brown in this picture is the wall. The blue fluffy mix represents snow. We created this texture in the room I work in by combining paint, shaving cream, and glue.
