Where will the most mature balance of unity and variety be found?

Correct answer: Repeated colours with controlled variation in shapes

Correct answer: A. Unity means that the parts of a composition feel connected, while variety prevents the work from becoming dull. Repeating some colours provides a shared visual relationship, so the viewer can see that the parts belong together. Controlled variation in shapes adds difference and interest without destroying that connection. B is incorrect because making every element completely different can produce fragmentation and weak unity. C is incorrect because making every element exactly the same creates unity but almost no variety, so the result may become monotonous. D is incorrect because without a shared visual cue, the parts may appear unrelated. A mature composition does not choose unity or variety alone; it organizes both. Memory cue: repeat enough to connect, vary enough to interest.
