a. ….(state type of balance here) visual balance

b. Why: was achieved by this artist by the placement of these (state elements of art here)…elements of art within these …objects.  ~For example if asymmetrical visual balance[[ the objects of …. created by the elements of art ____&____ on the left are then offset on the right with the objects of …. created by the elements of art ____&___]]

 (Student 3) 16. Rhythm is a Principle of Art/Design.  What contributes to the rhythm of the piece and how?   (term reference in chapter 7)(?/2pt) (Rhythm:  Once your eye perceived the focal point- where does your eye move (or what path does your eye take) from there.  Thus what devices were used/which elements of art were used (color/light, line, (shape, form, space) time/motion, pattern, texture ) does the artist use to move your eye throughout the artwork. )

a. state specific element/s of art used within this artwork here

b. How: state answer here- [[For example: starting from the focal point of …., my eye moves to this area/object… due to the repeated placement of the element of art _____]]

Essentially you will focus on how (underlining) the elements of art were placed by your artist in this artwork—this is important for this answer.  (See provided example Gallery Review)) Ensure your answer includes the elements of art ((color/light, line, (shape, form, space, depth), time/motion, pattern, texture.)

a. (Content) re state answer here,

b. the Composition is successfully set(by use of the elements of art ((color/light, line, (shape, form, space), time/motion, pattern, texture, etc.) and thus these principles of art) up to orchestrate this, and this is why…

The artist has arranged this composition) focal point, rhythm, variety, balance, unity  

Focal point of this artwork is  (state answer here)and was achieved by the specific use/placement of these elements of art….( state specific element/s of art used within this artwork here)

Rhythm was achieved by the specific repeated use of this/these element/s of art….(state element/s of art here)( where: state answer here- [[For example: starting from the focal point of …., my eye moves to this area/object… due to the repeated placement of the element of art _____]]

By definition which of the 4 types of visual balance (types: symmetrical absolute balance, symmetrical bilateral balance, asymmetrical balance, or radial balance) was achieved by the specific use of these elements of art….(state type of balance here) visual balance was achieved by this artist by the placement of these (state elements of art here)…elements of art within these …objects.  [[~For example if asymmetrical visual balance: the objects of …. created by the elements of art ____&____ on the left are then offset on the right with the objects of …. created by the elements of art ____&___]]

Variety was achieved by the specific use of these elements of art….(state answers(state specific element/s of art used within this artwork here for variation)

Unity was achieved by the specific use of this/these element/s of art….( state specific element/s of art used within this artwork here to achieve agreement )
