About this badge
Appreciating visual grammar is the first step toward creating work that resonates. Understand the elements of form and the principles of composition to create projects that attract the eye. In this course, participate in a series of exercises and critiques to deepen your perceptions of the 2D picture plane and to hone your awareness of aesthetic options. Learn how to effectively use the elements of form, such as dot, line, shape, value, and texture. Study the impact of compositional approaches, such as dominance, hierarchy, emphasis, balance, contrast, tension, and rhythm.
