PATTERN
-the repetition of a visual element in a regular sequence
-It can begin with units and shape in an image; repeated
TEXTURE
-surface quality of objects in an image
1) tactical texture: creating a surface that you can feel or have a sense that it can be touched
-
2) visual texture: 2-D illusion that is implied texture
-This type of texture implies the illusion that you actually touch the painting, you could "feel" the object.
COLLAGE
-putting together a various amount of materials together on a 2-D area
-This is important because it makes the image not ordinary and has the illusion of a single image when really there are multiple images in one.
VERISIMILITUDE
-appearance that is "truly the same"
-Verisimilitude is a texture that makes the object look like how it really is.
TROMPE L'OEIL
-"to fool the eye"
-In this kind of illusion, it makes the image appear to be mare than what is really is.
TRANSPARENCY
-objects or forms allow light to pass through
-Transparency occurs when to forms overlap but both objects are seen in the image.
OVERLAPPING
-when objects are placed on top of each other in order to create a sense of depth
-Instead of images being separated, they stacked onto another and it gives more definition into the image.
TYPES OF PERSPECTIVE
1) one-point: only one vanishing point
-In one-point perspective, all the parallel lines converge into one vanishing point to make people look through one way.
2) two-point: two-vanishing points
-The image is seen at an angle where none of the objects are parallel on the picture plane.
3) multi-point: has multiple vanishing points; minimum of 3
-Multi-point perspective an be best described as bird's eye view or worm's eye view.
VERTICAL POSITION
-the higher the image, the further away it seems/ the lower the image, the closer the image
-This dynamic shows more depth in the image rather than the image being bland.
AMPLIFIED PERSPECTIVE
-a dynamic illusionistic effect when something is at a certain angle that's directly pointed to the viewer.
-This dramatic illusion makes the image almost come out of the frame and put right in front of the viewer.
ISOMETRIC PROJECTION
-has parallel lines that don't converge toward to a common vanishing point
-This kind of illusion is more commonly used in traditional Japanese art and engineering.
OPEN FORM
-placement of elements in a composition that are cut off by the boundary
of the design
-Since in this form the image is cut off, it makes the viewer imagine what else there could be as a part of the image
CLOSED FORM
-the objects are placed within the boundary; instead of being cut off
-The image stays within the boundary that is set to stop the viewer to see what else that could be.
