Principals of design research.

ALL FOUR of these words should be in your post: BALANCE, EMPHASIS, MOVEMENT, PROPORTION. 

AT LEAST THREE of the the following words should be in your post: SYMMETRY, ASYMMETRY, CONTRAST, PLACEMENT, GROUPING, REPETITION, LEADING LINES, IMPLIED MOVEMENT. 


Looking at a picture you dont really notice everything that artist has accomplished. When i looked at a picture of a women dividing the US and mexico there was proportion because she was standing in the front which made her look big.  There was balance in this picture because on one side there was the same amount as the other and no side was more overpowering. This picture also had cool movement because there was smoke coming out of a factory and you could tell it was moving because of the detail. I think that the artist really emphasized the two different countries well because on one side it was all factories and electronics, where as the mexican side was made of all nature and handmade items. There was symmetry in this picture because both sides were opposites and the things on one side would be the exact opposite on the other side. The leading lines were also cool because on the US side the steam would lead to the middle women, and on the Mexico side the stairs of a fallen building lead to her. There was also lots of grouping in this picture with the flowers, wires, and buildings.
