Balance: is when the visual "weight" of an artwork feels equally distributed.
Symmetry- if you draw a line in the middle of shape it is the same on the right and the left
Approximately Symmetrical- Almost symmetry
Asymmetry- Opposite of symmetry
Radial- A line that you can draw in many places and it will be the same on either side
Emphasis: Putting a special focus on something or someone, when one element in an artwork appears to be more important or attract the most attention
Unity- is the feeling that all the elements in a work belong together
Variety- is achieved by introducing some differences into the picture to increase visual interest
Contrast- Something is very different when it is around it
Placement- Where artists place things matter, always thinks about things where go.
Grouping- When an artist decides to take a bunch of elements and put them right around the thing that they want to emphasize.
Rhythm and Movement: How the artist guides the viewer through a work of art
Repetition- The same elements, alternating elements, and with progression
Alternating Elements- Switch elements, like a pattern
Progression- A repeated element that changed in some way and gets a feeling of distance
Leading Lines- Lines that help you travel through the painting
Implied Movement- Makes like that it has been moving
Optical Movement-When there some kind of repetition going on and an allusion.
Actual Movement- When a piece of art can move without touching it
Proportion:The size relationship of the parts to one another or to the whole thing. (Colors,Shapes, and Forms are examples of proportion)
Shapes, Colors, and Forms- All to evoke emotion
Installation- An artist puts a lot of stuff in their work and talks about it
