Line Systems | Illusion of Space
Last week we critiqued Project 3 and saw we can abstract from Subject Matter by focusing on the Principle of Organization Unity.
This week we will work on Project 4 continuing to abstract a design's Degree of Representation by exploring the Elements of Design Line characteristics to convey Content, and by paying attention to the Principles of Organization Unity, Emphasis and Focal Point and Movement.

Homework for Class 6
Complete Project 4 | Directional Dominance.
After reading Design Basics: Rhythm chapter, and researching what Movement in design is, search the Internet for an artwork that clearly has a strong sense of Movement.
Post the image here and write how rhythm and movement in the artwork were accomplished.
Here are some possibilities:
. Changes in direction.
. Changes in darkness or lightness.
. Similar shapes connected with each other.
. Overlapping elements.
. Repetition of elements.
