In order to create an effective ART COLLAGEyou
must first be aware of
the Principles of Design
3
BALANCE - the distribution of visual weight in
a work of art. It can be either symmetrical
or asymmetrical.
4
CONTRAST -refers to differences in value,
color, texture, shape and other elements. It
creates visual excitement and adds interest to
the work.
5
MOVEMENT -used to direct viewers through the
work of art or to focus on particular areas. It
can be directed along lines, edges, shapes, and
colors within the work, but moves the eye most
easily on paths of equal value.
6
RHYTHM -the repetition of visual movement -
colors, shapes, or lines. Variety is essential
to keep rhythms exciting and active and to avoid
monotony. Movement and rhythm work together.
7
UNITY - provides the cohesive quality that makes
an art work feel complete and finished. It is
one of the most important aspects of
well-designed art. It is planned by the
artist.
8
PATTERN - planned or random repetitions of the
elements to enhance surfaces of paintings or
sculptures. It increases visual excitement by
enriching surface interest.
9
EMPHASIS - used to create dominance and focus.
Color, value, shape or other elements can be
emphasized to achieve emphasis.

When you use these PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN to make
an artistic image, you cant go wrong!!

To make your COLLAGE special and more
interestingtry at least 2 of these 3 ideas.
MASK
ALTER
INTEGRATE

MASKING
Just as with text, you can apply transparent or
translucent glazes to the images to make them
less obvious.     Or you can use paint to obscure
part of an image - one eye on a face, the
background of a photograph.
20
Altering
You can conveniently alter the color of
someones hair or clothes by painting over them
in a different color.   You can put a hat on
someones head, a pipe in their mouth, and give
them bigger shoes.   Photos can quite easily be
made unrecognizable by a little doctoring.
21
Integrating
It is all too easy to create a collage which is
just a lot of pieces, with no unity.   Paint can
really help here.  Painting over the edges of
torn or cut paper makes them less obvious, so
that the  viewer is less aware of the separate
items which make up the composition.  Glazing in
one color gives all the items something in
common.  Try making sense of a scattered
composition, by glazing on rectangles of
color. Connecting items with drawn lines is also
a possibility. Using the same color to paint
parts of several different images can provide a
visual  link between them. Paste a translucent
paper such as tissue or tracing paper over the
least unified area.  It has a similar effect to a
layer of semi-transparent paint. Finally, you
could draw one large contour image over
everything, allowing the other items to be seen
through it.
