The Principles of Design are guidelines artists use to create visually engaging and dynamic works of art. The six studio sessions explore balance and emphasis, movement, contrast, rhythm, pattern, and unity and variety. Learning to employ these principles will help you create successful works as well as interpret and appreciate others’ art more accurately.
