My Graphically Designed Summer... part Two

So this is how it went down.

I had this idea all planned out about how to demonstrate the 5 major elements of Design...

Emphasis
Balance
Sequence
Unity
Proportion


I even took last Thursday off from work as "vacation" day to work on it. That was the day of that major downpour and thunderstorms for any of you who live around me may remember. Anyway, just as a reminder to anyone within the sound of my voice, please do not ever forget to "save your work" as you're going along. Yes, that is exactly what did not happen in my case...

So after the electricity came back on I decided to completely dump the old idea... and come up with a new one.

Which I think turned out better than the first one would have anyway...

Here goes: (clickable)

Emphasis


Balance



Sequence


Proportion (The Golden Triangle... and my personal favorite that began as one.red.umbrella and resulted in a ton of recoloring, resizing and rotating.)


And this one that I completely and utterly ripped right off of the Internet.. but somehow managed to make it my own anyway...

Unity


Oh yes, and I got some extra credit for this one. The totally under rated element of... Surprise.

...which I totally ripped off of the Internet as well.
