1. How do these designs show your use of the elements of art and the principals of design to relate to your THEME?

The paper uses black and white and opacity, to portray a galaxy in the background. The waves are movement as well, and the spirals within them can look as though they spin with their repetition. The envelope plays around with color and opacity as well.

2. How do the three designs relate and respond to each other? Do they show change? Do they share a common shape, color or texture?

The theme is movement; incorporated with time, waves, and the orbiting within a galaxy. Time is always moving forward, and that is both a gift and a curse for some. The ocean is filled with life, which is movement within itself. Yet on the surface, there are waves, capable of being calm or violent; but always moving. Planets orbit a sun, a sun orbits the center of the galaxy, and galaxies orbit around one another. The universe is vast, and always on the move. Dark matter and the death of stars are always sending atoms flying across the dark space. In the end, movement is everywhere, and within this project I am trying to project this idea. Change is constant when in movement, which if you think about the designs as more than just pictures, you can see it.
