Rhythm and Movement
Rhythm - A continuance, a flow, or a of movement
created by the repetition of regulated visual information.
It is a regular repetition of elements to show the
movement of an object.

Movement - is the path our eyes follow when we look

at a work of art, and it is generally very important to
keep a viewer’s eyes engaged in the work.

3
Physical movement - this is the feeling of action
found in a work of art. This can be conveyed by
drawing or painting lines coming from the object
that is moving.

Juxtaposition is the second type of movement. In
juxtaposition, the artist portrays the subject in
somewhat of a "freeze frame.” This type of
movement can show the subject in the air, or at an
angle

“The Rehearsal Onstage“

Edgar Degas

Moving the viewer's eye is the third type of movement.
It deals with the way the viewer's eye moves through the
work of art. Movement is dictated by the way the objects
are placed on the picture plane or by the way the artist
uses the elements of art throughout the artwork.

RHYTHM
Rhythm creates a mood like music or dancing. To
keep rhythm exciting and active, variety is
essential.
Rhythm can be random, regular, alternating,
flowing, or progressive.
• Random Rhythm: Elements are repeated with no
regularity and therefore create a random rhythm.
• Regular Rhythm: Regular rhythm is created when a
series of elements (often identical or similar) are
placed at regular intervals in an artwork. If an artist
isn't careful, this type of rhythm can be monotonous or
boring.
• Alternating Rhythm: Alternating rhythm is when two
or more motifs are alternated. It is similar to regular
rhythm but, because more things are repeated, it adds
more variety to an artwork.
• Flowing Rhythm: Flowing rhythm is created by
bending and curving different elements and intervals
in an artwork.
• Progressive Rhythm: In progressive rhythm, each
time an element or motif repeats itself, it changes a
little and transforms gradually. It changes from one
thing to another.

Balance
Balance refers to the distribution of visual weight of line,
color, shape, object, texture and such. There are three
types of Balance. The Symmetric, Asymmetric and the
Radial Balance.

8
 Symmetric is a formal balance. It occurs when
there are two identical sides of a design with a
central point of axis.

Asymmetric is the contrariwise of Symmetric. It is

non identical sides but can still see the balance of each
other. It may have dissimilar size but there's still similar
colors or shapes..

works together.
Unity is the wholeness and completeness of an art.
Variety is the used of different visual elements
throughout an artwork

Proportion
Proportion are elements in the composition of art.
This helps the piece for a better outcome, using
correct proportions like in human anatomy results
to satisfaction in your work. Elements also compares scale
sizes, color, setting, degree and quantity but share the
same proportion.

26
 There are two types of proportions…:

Good Proportion Bad Proportion:

Not too much, not too little , and If you do an unequal division it
it gives complete balance will create monotony and a
and harmony. division that is unequal gives lack
of harmony

Painting and Drawing
Acrylic paint is pretty easy to work with, making it a great option for
beginners. We use acrylic paint because it dries very quickly. For at-home
painting, watercolor paint is also a beginner-friendly paint that is convenient
and easy to clean up.

Drawing is an art made with a pencil and crayon, rather than paint.

33
 Painting Materials
● Paintbrushes - For beginners, choose synthetic brushes because they're more affordable and
easier to use.

● Canvas, Journal or Sketchbook - You can sketch and do basic paintings in a journal or sketchbook
and then paint your vision on a canvas.

● Palette - There are also many types of paint palettes. The main difference usually comes down to
the material used for the surface, whether safety glass, plexiglass, wood, plastic, or other materials.

● Rinse Water Cup - To rinse your brushes, you can fill an old jar or cup with water.

● Soap - Acrylic paint cleans up easy with a bit of soap and water.

● Varnish - You can add a varnish to seal the painting when finished.

 Here are few basic painting techniques:
● Dry Brush – Avoid dry brush, but when used with purpose, a dry brush and undiluted
paint can be used to enhance your painting's texture.

● Flicking - This is a technique in which the painter actually flicks paint from the brush to
the surface. This results in a fun splatter effect that is rich in texture.

● Dabbing - This is about removing and dampening paint. Beginners can use a paper
towel or sponge to add texture, depth, and motion to paintings.

● Be Inventive - There are no official rules when it comes to painting.Try using other
household items instead of brushes. One technique that many think is reserved for
advanced painters is using your palette knife as a brush.

 Drawing Materials
Before you start, learn about graphite. - For sketching, it's important to have a range of pencils. Try
getting one from each family.

Paper is important – Like pencils, choices of paper are endless. Look for something that is optimized
for graphite.

Composition and Form

Start with simple shapes - It's relatively easy to draw because it can be easily broken down into
basic shapes.

When drawing, check your angles - Hold your pencil and line it up to the angle that you're trying to
replicate.

 Sketching and Hatching
Hatching and Cross Hatching - To create volume and shading, draw lines that follow the curve of a
line.

Tonal Sketching - Pressure and graphite scale is important. The harder you press, the darker the
tone will appear.

Blending - Simply use your finger or blending stick to create a smooth, even surface.

Accent lines - They add style to your drawing, Wood grain for example.

Use your eraser to define form - Once you're done drawing, use a clean eraser to bring the white of
the paper bag.

Keep your paper smudge free with another sheet of paper - place of piece of paper on top of your
drawing. Rest your hand on it while you sketch.

Sculpture and
Assemblage
Sculpture is a three-dimensional art made by one of four
basic processes: carving, modelling, casting, constructing.

Assemblage Sculpture is a creative method of combining

everyday found objects into a three-dimensional sculpture

38
 Carving is a sculptural technique that involves using tools to
shape a form by cutting or scraping away from a solid material
such as stone, wood, ivory or bone.

Your Logo or Name Here

 Casting involves making a mold and then pouring a liquid
material, such as molten metal, plastic, rubber or fiber glass into
the mold

Your Logo or Name Here

Modelling is an additive process. This means a soft material is
worked by the artist to build up a shape or form (rather than
scraping or material away as in carving)

Putting on a show using works of art or items of interest.

43
Mounting an Exhibit

Concept
The concept of mounting an exhibit
is to let one's thoughts and ideas
come to life

Label
An exhibit label will define its
content, people will be reading your
labels and it must contain prior
information about your exhibit

Physical Layout
It must have the elements of
motivating visitors to look around, use
storytelling techniques to captivate the
curiosity, provide a fun experience.
