Principle of Visual Art

Page 2: humanities principle of visual art

What is the Principle of Visual Art?

• Are the rules, tools and guidelines that artists use to organize the elements of art in an artwork.• It helps put these elements together to

achieve beauty• Perception of art is governed by different

principles of art design that guide the artist in making the art become more beautiful and interesting to the observers.

Page 3: humanities principle of visual art

Design• It is the proper arrangement of the different art elements in order to produce something beautiful• Makes the object from one perception to another• A good design is the result of a careful and correct application of the principle. It is the most important factor to remember to execute these principles in order to achieve better perception.

Page 4: humanities principle of visual art

• Design is the over-all visual structure of the formal elements of a work of art.

• The arrangement and organization of visual elements within the piece of work.

Page 5: humanities principle of visual art

Principles of Art

• 1.Harmony / Unity• 2.Rhythm / Movement • 3.Balance• 4.Proportion• 5.Emphasis

Standards or rules to be observed by artists in creating works of art; they are how to create a good composition.

Page 6: humanities principle of visual art

1.Harmony• Visually pleasing agreement among the

elements in a design; It is the feeling that everything in the work of art works together and looks like it fits. • An art principle which produces an

impression of unity, thus unity occur and all the elements of piece combined to make a balance, harmonious, and complete whole

Page 7: humanities principle of visual art
Page 8: humanities principle of visual art

• It is a quality which unifies a complete part of an arrangement.

• If there is harmony there is order and every orderly arrangement is harmonious.

5 Aspects of Harmony

Page 10: humanities principle of visual art

a.Harmony in shapes and lines a .1 Repetition- If a small rectangle is

placed is placed within a bigger rectangle so that their sides are parralel

Page 11: humanities principle of visual art
Page 12: humanities principle of visual art

a. 2. Transitional- usually curved, graceful line which connects two opposing or contrasting lines

Page 13: humanities principle of visual art

a. 3 Contrasting/Opposing- a straight line which intersect each other and form angles.

Page 14: humanities principle of visual art
Page 15: humanities principle of visual art

B.Harmony in Size

Page 16: humanities principle of visual art

C.Harmony of Color• Using two or more colors in

decorating an article or an object

Page 17: humanities principle of visual art

c.1-Related Harmonies- colors that came from one color but different shade

Page 18: humanities principle of visual art
Page 19: humanities principle of visual art

c.2-Contrasted Harmonies- is achieved by a combination of any opposite colors in the color wheel.

Page 20: humanities principle of visual art
Page 21: humanities principle of visual art

D.Harmony of Texture• Can be determined by feeling the object or by

looking at it. Coarse textures should not be combined with fine textures.

Page 22: humanities principle of visual art

E. Harmony of Idea• compilation of an objects that has

something common in each other

Page 23: humanities principle of visual art
Page 24: humanities principle of visual art

2.Rhythm/Movement• Rhythm is the regular, uniform or related

movement made through the repetition of a unit or motif.

Page 25: humanities principle of visual art

• Repetition of a unit creates a feeling of movement or rhythm

• All structural elements may be repeated to suggest movement.

• It is visual movement in a design or arrangement.

Page 26: humanities principle of visual art

Motion in Painting

Motion in Sculpture

Motion in Architecture

Page 27: humanities principle of visual art

Rhythm is classified into:

• A. Formal Rhythm(Uniform rhythm)- It is the repetition of a motif in uniform and regular arrangement.

Page 28: humanities principle of visual art
Page 29: humanities principle of visual art

•B. Informal/Random Rhythm(Free rhythm)- It is the repetition of a motif with variation in its form, size, and arrangement

Page 30: humanities principle of visual art
Page 31: humanities principle of visual art

3.Balance• Balance is a condition or quality

which gives a feeling of rest, repose, equilibrium or stability.

• It is the “visual weights” of lines, forms, values, textures and colors that we really balance.

• Distribution of visual weight and interest

Page 32: humanities principle of visual art
Page 33: humanities principle of visual art

Kinds of Balance:• A. Formal or Symmetrical Balance-

refers to using the exact same characteristics in the same position on either side of the composition; like a mirror image.

Page 34: humanities principle of visual art
Page 35: humanities principle of visual art

• a.1-Bisymmetrical, Absolute or Perfect Balance- the balance of identical objects (value, size, texture, color) placed on each side of central axis and equally distant from the center.

Division of the Formal Balance

Page 36: humanities principle of visual art

• a.2-Symmetrical, Apparent or Obvious Balance- the balance of objects with nearly identical description.

Page 37: humanities principle of visual art

B. Informal or Asymmetrical Balance- the balance of unequal visual weights, the heavier one being nearer the axis and the lighter one farther. Occult and free balance.

Page 38: humanities principle of visual art

Informal or Asymmetrical BalanceBy color By shape:

Page 39: humanities principle of visual art

By position By texture:

Page 40: humanities principle of visual art

The face or head of a normal person looks symmetrical at the front, but it is not considered bi-symmetrical.

Classical paintings and designs are mostly formal while modern arts are usually informal.

Page 41: humanities principle of visual art

• b.1 Slant or Diagonal Balance- the objects are balanced on a diagonal axis.

Division of Informal Balance

Page 42: humanities principle of visual art

Objects can be balanced formally by changing their distances from the center and by increasing or decreasing the visual weight of one of them.

To balance objects on a horizontal axis, the objects with the heavier visual weight must appear nearer the axis than the other.

Page 43: humanities principle of visual art

C. Radial Balance- is when the elements radiate from the center.

Page 44: humanities principle of visual art
Page 45: humanities principle of visual art

• Size relationships of one part to another part or to the whole.

• A quality of art in which shows pleasing relationship between themselves and its parts and between the parts and themselves.

• Expressed in terms of ratios.

4.Proportion

Page 46: humanities principle of visual art

Proportion in Architecture

Proportion in Painting

Proportion in Sculpture

Page 47: humanities principle of visual art
Page 48: humanities principle of visual art

There is a real sense of proportion in each of the two paintings above. Without the effective use of the principle of proportion you would not experience the majesty of the mountain cliffs in the painting on the left or the towering height of the trees in the painting on the right.

Page 49: humanities principle of visual art

In the two paintings above proportion emphasizes the distance of the ship and the vastness of the ball room.

Page 50: humanities principle of visual art

Greek oblong or a rectangle with the ratio of two is to three (2:3)- the standard Greek proportion for two dimensional or flat surfaces.

Page 51: humanities principle of visual art

The Parthenon, a building in Athens, Greece, is considered the most perfectly proportioned architectural structure in the world.

The ration of this architectural structure is 5:7:11, which is especially used in buildings and in determining the proportion of margins for framed pictures.

Page 52: humanities principle of visual art

3 Aspects of Proportion

A. Proportion in the grouping of objects

B. Proportion in space divisionC. Proportion in scales

Page 53: humanities principle of visual art
Page 54: humanities principle of visual art

• Artists use emphasis to make certain

parts of their artwork stand out and grab your attention. The center of interest or focal point is the place the artist draws your eye to first; meant to stand out to draw attention to the area.

5. Emphasis

Page 55: humanities principle of visual art
Page 56: humanities principle of visual art
Page 57: humanities principle of visual art
Page 58: humanities principle of visual art

Methods of Emphasizing Objects

• A. By Arrangement or Grouping of Objects•An orderly grouping of things

considered as a unit.• Should be located at the center

and should the biggest and brightest in color

Page 63: humanities principle of visual art

•B.Decoration

• An object or act intended to increase beauty of a person, room, etc.

• Something nice that you put on or in something else to make it look more attractive.

•C.Color Contrast

• the color contrast depends on how high the color saturation is. With less saturation, the tonal contrast becomes more noticeable. With more saturation, the color contrast takes over.

Page 72: humanities principle of visual art

• D. By the use of plain background space

Page 73: humanities principle of visual art

•E. By the use of unusual lines, shapes, sizes of colour

Page 74: humanities principle of visual art
Page 75: humanities principle of visual art

•F. By action or movement

Page 76: humanities principle of visual art

Other Art Princples

1. Novelty or newness

2. Variety or Varation

3. Utlity

4. Adaptability or Function

5. Contrast

Page 77: humanities principle of visual art

1. Novelty or Newness

• A new style of dress or dance appears more attractive and interesting than

ordinary dress design or dance. Novelty provides the best oppurtunity for developing ones creative ability.

Page 81: humanities principle of visual art

2. Variety or Variation

• A set of furniture which is arranged in certain way and remains as it is for long periods of time appears to be

monotonous in the long run. Variation in the arrangement or style of

furniture makess the furniture more interesting and attractive.

Page 85: humanities principle of visual art

3.Utility, Adaptability or Function

• A work of art must not only possess beauty but also utility. The object must be adaptable to the purpose for which it is made. This is especially true to all practical arts. In designing modern structures, function is now the first consideration.

4. Contrast • This synomous to opposition or

contradiction. This principle has some relationships with balance and emphasis. Two contrasting lines or colors may balance each other. The center of interest in a composition is in contrast with the subordinating parts in the same composition. Nature provides many examples of contrasting objects. Colors of flowers contrast the color of the leaves. Man is in contrast with his opposite sex.s
