Compare symmetrical and asymmetrical balance.
Symmetrical balance is a mirror-like balance. Asymmetrical balance uses unequal sides that still create visual equilibrium.
Compare Rhythm and Movement.
Rhythm is about repetition, while movement is about guiding the viewer's eye. They often work together, but they are distinct concepts.
Compare Scale and Proportion.
Scale is the size of objects in relation to each other, while proportion is the relative size of parts within an object.
Compare Connection and Juxtaposition.
Connection places similar objects together to show likeness, while juxtaposition places different objects together to highlight differences.
Define Opacity/Transparency.
How much light can pass through an object; the opposite of solidness.
Define Value in art.
The lightness or darkness of a color.
Define Contrast in art.
The difference between light and dark values.
Define Rhythm in art.
The visual beat created by repeating elements, like a pattern.
Define Movement in art.
The path the eye takes through a work of art, or the illusion of motion.
Define Scale.
The size of objects in relation to each other.
Define Proportion.
The relative size of parts within an object.
Define Emphasis.
The focal point of a design where the eye is drawn to.
Define Repetition.
Using the same object or element multiple times in the same way.
Define Figure/Ground Relationship.
How the foreground and background interact, creating positive and negative space.
Define Juxtaposition.
Placing different objects together to highlight their differences.
Define Hierarchy.
Arranging visual information to show importance.
How can manipulating opacity/transparency enhance a 3D artwork?
By creating depth, interest, and playing with light and shadow.
How is value/contrast used in 3D art to create depth?
High contrast can make forms pop, while low contrast can make them recede, creating a sense of depth.
How can 'Time' be conveyed in 3D art?
Using materials, forms, and surface treatments to suggest age, movement, or a sense of the past/future.
How is rhythm created in 3D design?
Using spacing, size variations, and repetition of forms to guide the eye and create a sense of movement.
How is movement created in 3D design?
Using lines, forms, and directional elements to guide the viewer's eye and create a sense of flow.
How is balance achieved in symmetrical 3D art?
Mirror-like balance where both sides have equal visual weight.
How is balance achieved in asymmetrical 3D art?
Unequal sides that still create a visual balance.
How is balance achieved in radial 3D art?
Elements radiating from a central point.
How is emphasis created in 3D art?
Using placement, size, color, and other elements to create a point of interest.
How is the figure/ground relationship used in 3D art?
Using forms, colors, and textures to create tension and interplay between the object and its surroundings.
How is connection demonstrated in 3D art?
Placing similar objects together to show their likeness.
How is hierarchy created in 3D art?
Using size, placement, and detail to emphasize certain elements over others.
