Vocab Pt2 Flashcards
Actual Texture
The true and real surface features of a object, apparent to the touch ( same as local texture)
Local Texture
The true and real surface features of a object, apparent to the touch ( same as actual texture)
Local Texture
The true and real surface features of a object, apparent to the touch ( same as actual texture)
Simulated Texture
Visual texture
Interpretive Texture
Use of a texture that conveys an idea about an object rather than representing its visible surface features (local textures)
Subjective Texture
Use of a texture that conveys an idea about an object rather than representing its visible surface features (local textures)
Value
The degree of lightness or darkness of a surface, sometimes called tone
Value Contrast
the degree of difference between light and dark areas (as in high contrast or low contrast)
Local Value
the actual colors of an area of the three dimensional world, translated directly into grays that represent relative degrees of lightness and darkness
Continuous Tone
referring to art with solid and infinite gradations of values, as in a black and white photograph, rather than the illusion of value created by broken screen patterns or drawing devices
Optical Mixture
illusions of mid-tones created through the juxtaposition of light and dark areas
Chiaroscuro
the effects of light and dark in a two dimensional composition, especially when these are treated as strong value contrasts
Atmospheric Perspective
the use of varying degrees of value-contrast to convey a sense of depth in a two dimensional image
Hue
The name of a color
Primary Color
the irreducible hues in a color mixing system, from which all other hues can be mixed
Secondary Color
hues obtained by mixing two primary colors (e.g. green, purple, orange)
Tertiary Color
hues obtained by mixing a primary color with a secondary color (e.g. red-purple, yellow-orange, blue-green, purple-blue etc.)
Complementary Hues
colors that are opposite each other on a color wheel, when mixed, they gray or neutralize, when juxtaposed they create strong optical effects
Complementary Colors
colors that are opposite each other on a color wheel, when mixed, they gray or neutralize, when juxtaposed they create strong optical effects
Analogous Hue
hues that lay next to each other on the color wheel
Middle Mixture
three analogous colors in which one of them is an approximate 50/50 mixture of the other two, used in creating certain color illusions
Shade
(1) a darker value of a hue created by adding black, (2) in some pigment mixing systems, a hue neutralized by its complimentary hue
Tint
a lighter value of a hue (obtained by adding white)
Local Color
the color that an object from the world of our experience appears to be
