Kyle Roberts Graphic Design A3 1-23-2018 __**Shape and Balance Wiki Research**__ **Asymmetrical**

I thought this piece was a great example of asymmetrical artwork. Asymmetrical balance is defined as a design that is not entirely symmetrical but still features balance. This design is clearly asymmetrical seeing as there are distinctions between the blue and the red regions, but there is still symmetry or "flow" between the shapes.

**Symmetrical** I thought this piece was a great example of symmetrical artwork based upon the definition. Symmetrical art is intended to be completely identical if you were to cut the piece directly down the middle. Seeing as the shapes are evenly divided into minature squares, if this piece were to be split in half there would be an even amount of squares on either side.



Radial
I thought this last piece was a great example of radial balance in art. Radial balance is defined as balance that achieves visual balance in the form of a circle. This piece achieves that by not only being the overall shape of a circle, but the swirls and details on the inside of the circle guide the viewer's eyes in a circular motion.
