Dynamic |
Steady |
In the two pictures above I created a steady rhythm and a dynamic rhythm using line. In the steady rhythm i used repetitive horizontal line with a pattern in the spacing which goes "line, big space, line, big space, line, small space, line ,big space, line small space..." and so on. the lines direct your eyes to the bottom of the page as though you're reading a book. In the Dynamic rhythm I used a composition of horizontal and vertical lines, the horizontal lines are pointed at the ends. Each of the horizontal lines take turns going down the page, starting from left to right. the vertical lines were added to make a sense of traveling downward.
I feel my dynamic rhythm works better and is more pleasing to the eye. The steady rhythm looks like a page in a book and the dynamic rhythm looks like a fence to me.
