form of content 4


The design i decided to talk about today on this form of content is a piece entitled Color design by Hampus Olsson. The image was design to express this artist love for color. In this brief blog i hope to explain to you why this is a successful piece.
There are many positives about this composition. As you can see the mean behind this image is spell out for you in the picture frame and in the title, color. The first thing i notices was the variety in color used in this image. Olsson use a large amount of different colors to help the viewer see her love for color. Next I noticed the focal point point the artist use. which really pulls your eye in to the picture frame. I Believe the art wanted to use triangles as a repeated shape, which i see in the different sections of color in the background. I also notice as the artist created thee focal point its seem that she did not place it directly in the middle, which is good because a lot of time centered focal points can over power the whole composition and turn in to a swore spot in you work, which takes away from the hierarchy of the whole image. Last thing I noticed is the typeface the artist decide to use it is a very simple type face but the color treatment the artist decided to use on it makes the simple text fit perfect in the image.
