Week 02 - Unity (31 January 2018 - HW3)

Untitled (Ocean) by Vija Celmins

~

The drawing has a lot of unity with how each element including the shadows, lights, values and gradients all mix together well to produce a realistic ocean design. The elements don't argue with each other to where it loses it realism but work together to create a beautiful drawing.

Open books stacked with other open books.

The stacked books show a range of variety by displaying different images with different things going on each one. No image is the same as the last one thus offering a range of different shapes and color through the entire image.
