Repetition and Visual Echo

Overall, this activity was focused around the idea of harmony.  Harmony means agreement.  With visual harmony, there is agreement between elements, it is used to enhance themes.  In the visual that I created above, I used repetition and visual echo to establish harmony.  Repetition as a focal image was used throughout.  The same flower pot, watering can, arrows, and color scheme was present.  Next, I used visual echo.  Visual echo creates an "eye-pleasing sense of unity between elements of layout."  I used two types of visual echo- echo through color and echo through style.  There is a basic color scheme of black and white throughout the images in the foreground and the transparent image of the flower in the background matches the text.  The style of the visual is a constant "sketchbook" or hand drawn look.  This visual that I created conveys the message of harmony through steps of repetition and visual echo.
