When artists work with the Elements of Art (line, shape, form, value, texture, space, and color) decisions must be made HOW these elements should be arranged. An effective work of art will have a thoughtful arrangement of these elements to create harmony and unity in a piece. When planning art, the first thing to be done is to plan the composition of the art work.
Composition IS the plan of how the elements and principles will work together to make visually successful art.
~In the Design Matrix assignment you will be presented with many possibilities and small problems in design composition.
~The more practice you have thinking about and arranging the elements and principles of design, the more comfortable you will be when you compose your own works of art.
~The Design Matrix is an interesting way for you to practice and learn the elements of art and principles of design in many different combinations.
