variety
T OR F: in this type of artwork, artist incorporates implied movement in art known as kinetic art.
FALSE - ACTUAL MOVEMENT
Value most significantly results in the illusion of form and depth in a composition

Actual
______ lines, are used by the artist to make the viewer feel
their involvement in interpreting the composition by seeing
and connecting lines where none actually exists.
implied
__________ gives the viewer a perception of
depth because the distance between the two eyes.
Stereoscopic vision
Also known as retinal disparity.
stereoscopic vision
It involves the movement of the eyes
when looking at or viewing the object. The more ocular
movements occur when the object is near, and less when
the object is far.
Kinesthetic vision
It is when objects are grouped, not all parts of
some objects will be seen.
Overlapping
An illusion of space where objects that are big
will be perceived as near compared with objects that are
far.
Relative Size and Linear Perspective
This is also known as aerial
perspective. The illusion of depth is created by techniques
known as gradient (a gradual change).
Atmospheric Perspective.
it show direct actions in which movement
perceived immediately or show an intended path for the
viewer to follow to achieve the effect of motion across the
visual field.
Motions
artist incorporates actual movement in
art known as kinetic art.
Actual Movement
It is showing a variety of lines may be used
together with some degree of repetition, changes in position,
scale, or size of objects, and varying proportions that can create the perception on movement or passing time in a two-
dimensional piece of static art.
Implied Movement
- Also known as informal balance, where the elements on
either side of a composition do not reflect one another.
ASYMMETRICAL
- Balance where all elements radiate out from a center point
in a circular fashion to all four quadrants of the shape’s
constraining plane.
RADIAL SYMMETRY
is created by the variety and repetition of
elements in a work of art that come together to create a
visual tempo or beat.
Rhythm
- This can be described as sameness, the belonging of one
thing with another
HARMONY
- This is the uniform repetition of an element of art or
combination of elements. - Anything can be turned into a pattern through repetition
PATTERN
- Happens when the artist creates an area of the
composition that is visually dominant and commands the
viewers’ attention. - This is often achieved by contrast.
DOMINANCE / EMPHASIS
- This is the size relationship of forms and shapes. Good
proportion causes a sense of unity and harmony.
PROPORTION
- One of the most useful composition techniques in
photography
RULE OF THIRD
An indication of a line where none virtually exists.
implied lines
A kind of shape that exist without any basis from either nature or geometry.
amorphous shape
