25- What are the Principles of Design? (Art Grammar, Part 2 of 3)

Continuing our series on How to Teach Art using the Classical Model of Education, we’re moving on in the grammar of art, discussing the Principles of Design!

The Principles of Design are the way the Elements of Art are used in a work of art. The Principles of Design help us to figure out why our art doesn't look like we wanted it to look and helps us articulate why we like or don't like other works of art.
