His artwork is abstract, and the subject is the circle. • Looking at the elements of design, describe what qualities you see: -line: the curvy lines create movement -shape: triangle, circle, swirls -color: blue, red, pink, black, orange, brown, white, yellow, and purple -value: by looking at this artwork he makes the edges dark and light. -space: I see the spaces in the artwork, and the yellow triangle spreads across the paper. 4.

  4. Analysis • Emphasis: in the artwork my eyes see the edges of the painting. • Balance: the artworks balance is in the middle of the painting. • Proportion: the proportion is not realistic its abstract. • Pattern: the swirls are repeated. • Rhythm or Movement: the big swirls. • Unity and variety: the swirls and the big triangle bring the artwork together.

To me it relates a lot to real life. • What criteria (think of the style of the work) can you list to help others judge this work? • Look at the lines and focus on the picture in the middle and maybe look along the edges of the picture. • How unique is the work? Why do you feel this work is or isn’t unique? • This work is very unique.
