Kristen F's Healthy Heart!

In my second heart, " The EMS Heart ", I was hoping to portray positive space and deep space while also integrating as much of the primary color triad that was available to me.

Susan P.'s Clever Heart!

The elements and principles of design used are; Line-Outline Color-primarily neutral with yellow and green accents (analogous colors) Shape-referential Space-shallow Balance-near symmetrical Emphasis-repetitive pattern

Marien V-C's Heart!

Found object composition (b), Ink Stained, is made up of my old tattooing equipment, and incorporates most of the tools and pieces of equipment required to apply a permanent tattoo onto a person. The composition is three-dimensional, asymmetrical, polychromatic and varied, also unified, as it is formed of items that belong together to perform a specific task (this may be purely my opinion, I know). This piece includes repetition of circular shapes, and a sketchy, somewhat unfocused line made up from the cables of a foot pedal. I didn’t set out to emphasize any one point on this piece, but by virtue of their volume, also their darker values, the bottles on the left hand side serve to provide a focal point for the whole.

For my first piece I focused a lot on using warm colors and a few cooler accents. I played around with different types of textures and wanted to showcase contrasting textures like the rice, noodles and potpourri. The heart itself is an excellent representation of a symmetrical balance and the rest of the piece has a lot of implied lines by the placement of the different types of noodles. The theme of my piece was love of pasta!

A. Shape is referential. Color is polychromatic. Texture is real. Balance is symmetrical. There is variety between the soil and the flowers. Emphasis is near the center because of the darker value.

Nereyda's Heart!

I used glass cups and place them in a heart shape and took Q-tips to outline the glass shaped heart. To give color to the heart I used crayons in analogous colors. This picture is symmetrical.

Megan S. Delicious Heart

The Spicy Heart is composed of Dried Alpha Bits Pasta, Whole Black Peppercorns, Dried Red Pepper Flakes, and Ground Paprika. I don't believe that it can be seen very clearly in the photo, but I tried to make each "layer" a different depth and width that the others, so it was a very textured pie ce. This piece is about neutrals. I wanted a very warm theme, so I chose not to add any green spices or sliced green onions. I also wanted to create very simplistic, basic lines that did not intersect. It is near symmetrical. In very different proportions, and adding fresh tomatoes, garlic and green onions - this is one of my son's favorite meals.
