What is It

East Asian Arts

China, Japan, North Korea, and South Korea are all considered to be part of
East Asia. Each of these countries has its own distinct culture. They do, however,
share a few traits, including a high sense of self-awareness and public-behaviour
norms.

Asian art, often known as Eastern art, has a diverse spectrum of influences
from numerous cultures and religions. Prehistoric men were the inspiration for the
picture. Ochre and black pigment were employed. Hunting scenes with horses, lions,
rhinoceros, mammoths, and other animals were frequently shown in ancient
paintings. These prehistoric murals were created on cave walls, stone blocks, and
other surfaces. China is home to a few of them.

The term "composition" refers to the arrangement of visual elements in a
painting or other work of art. It is the organization or composition of the elements of
art and design, such as line, shape, color, value, texture, form, and space, according
to the principles of art and design, such as balance contrast, emphasis, movement,
pattern, rhythm, unity/variety, and other elements of composition, to give the
painting structure and convey the artist's intent.

Arts is the expression or application of human creative skills and imagination,


typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be
appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.

There are seven elements of arts. They are color, form, line, shape, space,
texture and value. The ten common principles of art are balance, emphasis,
harmony, movement, pattern, proportion, repetition, rhythm, unity and variety.

10 Common Principles of Arts

1. Balance is the sense of stability achieved through implied weight of an object.


There are three different types of balance: symmetrical, asymmetrical and
radial.
• Symmetrical balance – when one image is mirrored on the other side
to repeat itself.
• Asymmetrical balance – when different types of elements create a
visual balance.
• Radial balance – is the distribution of elements around a central point
in all directions.

2. Emphasis is when one element of an artwork
stands out more than another. This creates a
sense of importance and is intentionally used to
communicate a message or feeling.

3. Movement is the visual flow of your artwork. It


is the path that you intend your viewer’s eye to
follow.

4. Pattern as a principle of design may be defined


as regular arrangement of repeated same
elements, usually increases the visual
excitement by supplementing surface interest.

5. Proportion is the relationship of two or more


elements in a design and how they compare with
one another, it is said to be harmonious when a
correct relationship exists between the elements
with respect to size or quantity.

6. Repetition is simply repeating a single element


many times in a design. For example, you could
draw a line horizontally and then draw several
others next to it.

7. Rhythm is a principle of design that suggests
movement or action; it is usually achieved
through repetition of lines, shapes and colors.

8. Unity in an artwork creates a sense of harmony


and wholeness, by using similar elements within
the composition and placing them in a way that
brings them all together.

9. Variety adds interest by using contrasting


elements within the composition. Variety is the
counterweight to harmony and creates visual
interest by slightly changing or using different
elements together in a composition.

10. Harmony can be described as sameness, the


belonging of one thing with another. The
repetition of design elements like colour, texture,
shape and form are one of the easiest ways to
achieve harmony to create a composition.
