Required Research- Week 1: Elements and Principles of Design. Due Jan 14th

Intro

The Elements and Principles of Design are the building blocks of visual language. This page is a starting point for your research on the subject. Remember, every author will present a slightly different list of things as "the" elements and "the" principles of design/art. The main thing to remember is that every image, regardless of how complex, can be disassembled into basic core components that are shared by all images. In this sense, all images have a simple shared core language.

Note: the language we are learning will be used to analysis the images in this week's assignments. Do you best, with what we have discussed in-class and with what you will be reading this week. There is no Google Form for these readings.
