Asymmetrical

And lastly this is my example of asymmetrical. The picture is asymmetrical because it is unbalanced since one side seems interesting while the other seems very empty and boring.

Symmetrical balance

This is my example of symmetrical balance. I think that is a good example because everything is just balanced out very nicley so if you were to cut it right in the middle each side would look the same.

Proportion

This is my example of proportion. It is just a picture of two horses one adult and one just a mere foal. It shows proportions since one is big and one is small.

Emphasis

I think that this is a very good example because the main emphasis is so clear. It is of course the flowers (that look soon to bloom) and the backround is just a plain bright pinkish-orange which draws your attention to the flowers.

Rhythm

This is my example for rhythm. This picture of a fence (or at least I think its a fence) shows rhythm. The picture itself show some sort of movement and is quite repetitive.

Harmony

This is my example of harmony. It just a very calm picture of a few flowers that are the same colours. They all go together very well and is a bit repetitive.

Colour

I think that this picture is a good example for colour. It is very interesting to look at with all the different bright and lively colours. 

Texture

For texture I chose this picture. It looks as if it would feel like cold, wet and slightly bumpy ice.

Shape

For shape I chose this. I chose it because I like how it starts off looking like mini plump tirangular shapes but as a whole gradully looks like a green, leafy flower.

Line

For line I chose this picture. It just shows straight lines, has very few colours and is quite plain but I like the simplicity of it.
