Symmetry   For this project we were assigned the goal of finding and taking pictures that represent symmetry, balance, and asymmetry.  Symmetry in a picture basically means that one side of the picture will be the exact same as the other. It is essentially a mirror of the other side, this can be achieved though editing or by simply finding something that is symmetrical. Balance is when in a picture there can be two object that look similar, but their weighting in the picture is different from each other creating a differential in balance. Asymmetry is when there is an object that has two side thats are different from each other, or not symmetrical. Symmetry Asymmetry Balance     

Artist Statement For this project we were instructed to take pictures of Pictorial Lines,  specifically Decorative, Leading Subjects, and Arrangement. Arrangement is when lines are the main focus of the picture, in most cases there are many different lines, and they usually are in some arranged order. Decorative lines are lines on a subject, there tends to be more than just one line and they are there to decorate the subject. Leading Subjects are lines that lead to a subject, this tends to just be one line that leads to a subject, but that doesn't mean that there can't be more than one. The subject can be anything but it has to be something that pulls away from the lines and is visibly the clear subject of the picture.  Arrangement Decorative Subject lines

Artist Statement Our goal for this project was to create an illusion of depth, we did this through the use of Leading Lines, Repetition, and Depth Staging. Leading lines are lines that travel from the foreground of the picture into the background, usually they are the main focus of in the picture. Repetition is when you take picture of an object that repeats throughout the picture and into the background creating the illusion of depth in the picture. Depth staging is when you have one object in the foreground and one behind it, sometimes one of the objects will be blurred to add an emphasis to the other object. Depth staging can be created by placing a person or an object in front of something and by focusing on one.   Leading Lines   Repetition  Depth Staging
