As we walked through the BYU art student exhibits, it struck me how much design is intertwined with our art. I truly don't think that design and art are pitted against each other in the world of art. They are supplemental to each other. By using design in our art we utilize composition and balance. The elements of design can be interchangeable with the elements of art. The principles and elements of design make our art what it is. Rules are always meant to be broken but with the help of design, we can create wonderful pieces or art that inspire.
