Balance

I used Sewing materials. As I was working on my quilt, I realized they would work and be different then kitchen utensils.

These are the cut outs. I chose not to use the big white space, this to me looks like a "skeleton" laying down. Its sideways. Don't know how to turn it on here!

Scale and Proportion

I chose shoes... Not only do I have a little fetish with them, I also think they say a lot about a person.
These are my sisters and children's shoes. I love love the picture in the middle. It shoes the "ages" of her 3 children just by the scale of there shoes. I used her shoe and her youngest daughters shoe to show just how much bigger a grown up is in proportion to an infant.

Focal Point Examples

I like this fire as the Flames contrast the dark night.

This squirel is isolated from everything else going on in nature.

This center piece is perfectly placed in the middle of the table and its centered right in the middle of the fabric square.

This one element is centered in the picture and grabbing all of the attention.

To me this cracker platter doesnt have a focal point, as I feel it comes together as 1.

Unity!!!!!

Non Objective: It has unity because of the circles and the lines, but it has no meaning.

Chaotic: Too busy to really focus on one thing.

Figurative: I love the unity of all 4 women and the flow through their connecting arms.

Grid : I found this to be a "akward" form of a grid. But I found this to be a awesome example.  

Proximity : I found this and thought that it looked like a head and neck. If they were farther apart then they wouldn't resemble that and would look more like scattered lines.

Repetition Similarity : Even though the gears are different colors they repeat in a circular motion.

Repetition Variety : Even though these are the same distance apart they create variety because they are different shapes.
