Digital Design-Final Exam
For my project I created a flower pot. A flower pot is considered a Functional work of art, because it serves a purpose and can be used in everyday life. Other examples of functional art would be chairs, tables, desks, etc. In creating my artwork I used 3 specific elements of art, Shape, Line, and Color. My flower pot’s base is constructed by lines. In the design of the flower pot I used shape, geometric shapes, which were circles of different sizes. And lastly I used a cool color scheme; cool colors include blue, green, and violet. I used a different variation of each of these colors. The shapes and colors I used were the building blocks of the Principles of Design that were also used in this art. My principles were symmetrical balance; you can see that there are polka dots of all size and color throughout the whole pot, giving it a very equal balance. I also used a pattern; the arrangement of polka dots throughout the surface demonstrates a common pattern of circles. And for my third principle, I used emphasis. I put one black dot in the mix of all the cool colored polka dots, the black stands out and take your eyes away from the real picture to make you see it in a different way.
