Sparacino+-+Design

Steve Sparacino

For a symmetrical design I chose this particular shape and design because I thought that it showed the concept very well. If you cut it down the middle, side, or multiple other ways it will be the same just flipped around. In addition, what makes this symmetrical is that the contrast of colors is the same for every side of the pentagon in the center. If the sides were any other color this would not be even or symmetrical. Also, the shapes and shading of the design are the same as well. What I liked about this design is the amazing contrast of color about the entire picture and the lighting effect on all sides. To me it looks beautiful, there's an ominous glow to it and it was very well done.

This image shows that it is asymmetrical because there is no order in this piece. For a piece to be symmetrical it must have order and balance between color and shapes. This design has a sense of randomness to the whole image and no balance of shape or color. It appears that no two shapes are alike and though colors are shared there is no order. I liked this picture because there is a simplicity to colors and shapes. This picture contains only five different colors all involving black and white.

This picture shows its radial design because it is showing shape and color all spewing from the center of the picture. The colors and shapes all spiral out. Radial designs need this circular almost motion to be radial. I especially liked this piece because it involves so many colors and adds in motion as if it were spinning right now. I also liked that the picture appears to become more and more wild towards the center.
