MO·TIF (mo-teef)<br />
n.<br />
1. A recurrent thematic element in an artistic or literary work.<br />
2. A dominant theme or central idea.<br />
3. A repeated figure or design in architecture or decoration.<br />
Will your motif be representational of something from life (like a floral pattern), or will<br />
it be primarily abstract? Will it cover the entire piece, or will it create a random<br />
rhythm around the form? Surface finish is another chance for the designer to<br />
grab and keep the viewers’ attention. What will you emphasize with your<br />
design?<br />
Your stencil motif must be inspired by one of the following: stone, metal, wood,<br />
flowers, plants, or the textures on animals, mammals or marine life.
