OBAMA

Harmony

This shows harmony because all the colours used are from the same colour pallet, making the image look unified. It also looks unified because all the elements relate to one another.

Emphasis

Both show emphasis with the usage of colours. They both have dark background (grass, grayscale water/sky), and then a usage of a bright colour- like the yellow flower and red lighthouse. This creates a focus on that element.

Variety

The first picture shows that variety in shoes; different colours, sizes and shapes. And the second shows variety in the different colours fishes.

Proportion

All of the above images shows the contrast between big and small. The first one shows the difference of size between the big pumpkin bowl and a much smaller version of the same bowl. The second image shows the difference in size between human hands and two porcupine.

Balance

Both images are balanced and symmetrical because the images are evenly distributed on the image.

Rhythm

The first image shows rhythm because it is a repetition or pattern of the same image creating movement. The second image is: in the artists' eyes, the lines of red and yellow are used to create the fast movements of cars on a road.

Shades

Both of the above images show a light source creating a shade. Also, due to the shading in the second one the image looks three dimension.

Texture

Texture is the way things look and feel if they were felt. The first one looks rough while the second looks bumpy because of the holes.

Colour

Both images use colour to create excitement especially the first one. The use of the different colours draws curiosity and intrigues the audience.

Space

Both images use space by creating movements. One looks like you're driving down a road, and the other shows the movement of water.

Shape

Line

The first image shows line being used to create a fun, bright picture. While, the other one the different types of lines that can be drawn to create different types of emotions.
