Illusion of Motion by Multiple Image. The man walking down the stairs almost in a ghostly figure shows motion in multiples.
Illusion of Motion by Blurred Object. When artists want to create an illusion of motion by blurred object their details and outlines are lost in fast movement. This picture is a great example of that because we can clearly see the car's sideview mirror but everyhing around it is blurred. This creates the effect that the car is in motion.
Illusion of Motion by Repeated Figure. The image of the boarded shows the motion of the backflip in a frame by frame action.
Anticipated Motion. The anticipated motion that we are expecting is for this woman to continue her transformation into spider-man/woman and jump into action. The motion that we expect makse this piece an anticipated motion piece of work.
Spartial Puzzles (equivocal space) The hazy background covered by streeks of light make for a good representation of Spartial puzzles.
Multiple Perspective. This piece showcases multiple perspective because there are several people in the picture doing different things. Individual viewers can derive different meanings and scenarios from this piece.
Amplified Perspective. The foot in this piece is a great example of amplified perspective. It appears that the foot is oversized but when looking at the entire piece it seems just right.
Illusion of Space by Aerial Perspective. This painting of a cathedral is a good example of aerial perspective because we get the sense that we are above the cathedral looking down upon it.
Illusion of Space by Linear Perspective. The columes of the bridge receeding back gives the illusion of space as the actual bridge dives into the background.
Illusion of Space by Vertical Location. In this piece we can see that our columns are our vertical location. The objects on the right side of the piece are larger than the objects on the left side of the piece; also creating our vertical illusion.
Scale Confusion. In this example of scale confusion, the glass is the inter-size relationship and the room is the intra-size relationship.
Illusion of Space by Overlapping. In this picture we see the mountains overlapping one another. We get the illusion of space because the mountains at the bottom are in shadow and they come more in the light as the get taller. This creates the illusion of space by overlapping because the mountains are in front of each other and partially obscuring one another.
Alternating Rhythm. Going back and forth with alternating lines and colors bring out the rhythm.
Progressive Rhythm. This piece showcases progressive rhythm because the lines that are at the top of the piece are numerous and spaced closely together. The lines become fewer and further apart the further down the piece they go. This is a good example of progressive rhythm because it is showcasing the lines in a progression of steps.
Absence of focal point. This piece is a great example of absence of focal point, there is nothing in the painting that draws your eye in and makes you want to keep them there.
Emphasis by placement. The main characteristics of emphasis of placement include the center as being perceived as the focal point. Many times the object of focus will be placed in the center of the lines of perspective. This is the case with this piece of work.
Degree of Emphasis. The person under the the sheet is the primary, the coyote is the second, and the door in the background is the tertiary.
Emphasis by Contrast. Going from dark to light brings out contrast, but using only a shade of dark on a light background IS contrast.
Emphasis by Isolation. The girl in this piece is our isolated object. Emphasis by isolation artwork creates an image where the focal point of the piece is seperated from other objects grouped closely together.
Crystallographic Balance. This piece is a good example of crystallographic balance because there is the same visual pattern found allover the piece. Crystallographic artwork creates equal emphasis over the entire surface creating an allover pattern and balance.
Asymmetrical Balance. A lot of the time, a piece of artwork needs something in the background to complement the foreground. This is an example of Asymmetrical Balance because of the boat complementing the oil lamp.
Radial Balance. This piece of artwork is a great example of radial balance because the eye of the viewer is focused on the center.
symmetry is a great view in art. It always seems to make me think about paralell universies. This is a great example of symmetrical balance.
