Review week 13

For each of the 8 principles of design, find an example that utilizes the principle within the design. You should have 8 DIFFERENT sample designs. For each, discuss how the particular principle is used.






Approximate symmetry        
This is used in symmetry, there is a whole rectangle on one side and two other squares that make up a rectangle on the other. 


Progressive rhythm


The squares are in repetition and they are repeating.  They also establish a sense of movement. 


Proportion example 1


This is objects going from biggest to smallest scale. It represents proportion scale because it is ordered this way.


Dominance


It shows unity because this is what we normally see in our lives. There is a house with a small section for tress, and the sun shining upon them.


Closure


These are not shapes yet, but they are to our brains which fill in the missing information and then interprets them to what shape it looks like.  


Closure


This shows continuity because the road to us just keeps going and going. There is also no other object that will catch our attention other than the really far ones at the back.


Similarity, proximity, alignment


These objects are organized into two sections.  In the top section, the shapes are easier to organize and define to our brains, but in the bottom one, the shapes are harder to organize and define for out brains.














Also, answer the following questions in your own words.
How do you add a layer mask to a particular layer?


You click on the thing that you want to put a layer mask on and then click on the lay mask button.



What two colors are used to create the mask?



Black and white.



Describe the process of using a layer mask?
























You use the brush tool on 100% opacity and hardness, and then you decide what size brush you want.  Then you just click with your mouse, and hold it while your moving it to make a layer mask.
