1. Principle of Art and Design: by Bernard E. Richardson Master Teacher |A rt Educator |2022 PATTERN

2. What is Pattern? The elements (line, shape, colour and texture) are used repeatedly in an art work. Pattern is the regular arrangement of repeated elements (line, shape, colour and texture) or motifs . Patterns can be planned or done at random to enhance a work of art. Principle of Art… PATTERN

3. Patterns are either REGULAR or IRREGULAR. Regular Patterns In regular patterns the motif (or motifs) is repeated in a way that is predictable. Irregular Patterns In an  irregular pattern  the motif changes or the way it is repeated is unpredictable. Patterns are every where, they create visual excitement and draw your eye into the artwork or design. Principle of Art… PATTERN

4. a. NATURAL – they are patterns formed in the natural world. b. MAN MADE – they are patterns formed by creating decorative designs. Patterns occur often in nature, from the leaves on a tree, shells and rocks and animals and flowers have pattern. Principle of Art… PATTERN Artists also create patterns using similar repeated motifs. There are TWO basic types of Pattern: As mentioned Pattern is created by repeating the elements of Art in Nature and within an Artwork. The following are examples:

9. Patterns in Artwork In this painting by Barrington Watson pattern is created using: The young ladies lined up along the shore line; The lines created from the reflection of their legs on the sand; They are all wearing the same colour dress except for the little girl in the back; On the sand the curved lines created from the ripples of the breaking waves also form a pattern.
