25

27
The techniques of manipulating light and shadow in painting is known as
chiaroscuro
28
is formed when two ends of a line meet to enclose an area.
shape
29
are those seen in nature like the shape of leaves, animals, mountains, flowers and seashells.
Natural or organic shapes
30
are those that have little or no resemblance to natural objects.
Abstract shapes
31
have reference to recognizable objects, but most often show a similarity to some organic forms.
Non-objective or biomorphic shapes
32
are the triangles, rectangles, squares, cylinders, cubes.
Geometric shapes
33
refers to the feel or tactile quality of the surface of an object. It has to do with the characteristic of surface, whether it is rough or smooth, fine or coarse, polished or dul, plain or irregular:
texture
34
an illusion in the graphic arts. It is created by techniques that adds depth and distance to two-dimensional art. In sculpture and architecture, however, space is actually present.
space
35
create space when an object covers a part of another object which is behind it.
Overlapping planes (interposition)
36
Objects that appear large/big indicate nearness and small sized objects as distant
Relative size
37
deals with effect of distance on the appearance of objects. It enables the viewer to perceive distance and to see the position of objects in space.
Perspective
38
gives the perception distance by means of converging lines. It has to do with the direction of line oand with the size of objects.
Linear perspective
39
is the effect of haze, mist or atmosphere on the object. Near objects are seen in detail with the full intensity of color and as objects recede, details are loss and objects appear grayer.
Aerial perspective (gradient)
40
2 types of movement
actual movement and implied movement
41
in art, specifically in sculptures results in kinetic art.
Actual movement
42
results when a variety of lines are used together, repeated changed in position, or decreased/increased in size.
Implied Movement
43
are three-dimensional forms, which are identified either by mass or volume.
Sculpture and architecture
44
The sculptor is concerned with ____ because sculpture occupies space.
volume
45
Space in sculpture may be viewed in two ways; it may be considered a _____ ____ or an ____ ____
single solid object assemblage of solids
46
may be achieved naturally using wind and water or mechanically through some energy soures
actual movement
