Chapter 12: Movement and Rythm

Taking a break from contemplating my painting. I don't really know where to start there... finished my pattern picture though, I like how it turned out. I might post it later.

Anyway, chapter 12. Lots of new vocabulary words! I'll have to take a closer look at this chapter later on when I'll remember more of it. A piece I liked was Residential Window by John Forbes and Jean Rosen on page 240. It had both movement and an interesting kind of rythm to keep the viewer's eye moving. It had a "flowing rythm" which I think I like the best out of all the types described. I also really loved the color in this piece.

Another I liked was Untitled Film Still #65 by Cindy Sherman on page 236 (pictured right). I loved the composition of this. It had great leading lines and contrast, with the focal point on the edge of the paper. It was very interesting to look at and led the eye around the image.
