PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - HARMONY

This picture brings out harmony because all the different colours & types of flower go well together to create a beautiful bouquet.

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - EMPHASIS

I choose this picture as my emphasis, because as you can see the water is a dark colour and also are the lily-pads. What stands out in this picture is the pink lotus flower.

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - VARIETY

As you can see, there is a variety of shape, colour and sizes that put this room together. 

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - PROPORTION

This picture represents proportion because the fisherman and the boat is railing in a big fish that's 10x's the size of the man, when really in reality the fish is usually smaller than the boat. 

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - BALANCE

This picture is an example of asymmetrical balance because the rocks piled upon one another isn't evened out. Although they are balanced by being piled on top of one rock, but it's not placed in relation to one another so the page balances.

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN - RHYTHM

The grass and empty space are put together to create a rhythm.

ELEMENTS OF DESIGN - SPACE

This image shows us a various amount of space there is within this room. 

ELEMENTS OF DESIGN - SHADE

This picture shows the lightness and darkness effects of the black and white combination.

ELEMENTS OF DESIGN - COLOUR

All the colours of the pencil crayons are virbrant, bright, and also dark.

ELEMENT OF DESIGN - TEXTURE

An element of design that creates a feeling of wanting to touch it. This picture of rocks gives us a feeling that it would be rough.

ELEMENTS OF DESIGN - SHAPE

The shape of the fruits have a self-contained area of geometric form. The circular shape sets a feeling of motion and infinity creating emphasis.  

ELEMENTS OF DESIGN - LINE

The image includes lines that are loose, free, sharp and straight. The thick and thin lines of this image creates the final product and the repetition of lines create a pattern/emotional impact.

What did I do this summer?

This summer, I went on vacation with my family. Where did i go? I went back to my home country, Vietnam. I started my vacation two days after my exams finished and came back during the first week of August. After getting back from vacation, I just hung out with my friends everyday. Seeing my friends continued throughout the rest of my summer days. The last weekend of summer, I went to the cottage with my brothers friend's. We went to Rice Lake, located in Coburg. We were there for 4 days and 3 nights. Going with 4 girls and 8 guys wasn't really fun. The girls cooked and cleaned all day, while the guys went fishing all day & night. That ends off my summer.
