46. Illusion of Motion by Multiple Image

45. Illusion of Motion by Blurred Outline

44. Illusion of Motion by Repeated Figure

the repeating golf club in different areas creates the illusion of the swing.

43. Anticipated Motion

This image by Bridget Riley almost appears to be moving, though not literally in motion, the viewers eye anticipates the motion.

42. Spatial Puzzles

41. Multiple Perspective

The point of view in this photographic montage changes from forward to upward and downward, creating multiple perspective.

40. Amplified Perspective

39. Illusion of Space by Linear Perspective

Linear perspective creates space by making all the lines go to the focal point, or the horizon line. In this picture the train tracks go to one point on the horizon.

38. Illusion of Space by Aerial Perspective

A picture of the waterfront in Vancouver, taken from an aerial perspective, you can see the depth it creates.

37. Illusion of Space by Vertical Location

The vertical lines in this painting create space. Lines that are closer to the foreground are larger, and those farther away are smaller.

36. Illusion of Space by Overlapping

Overlapping these shapes makes the image look three-dimensional by creating the illusion of space.

35. Scale Confusion

this image shows scale confusion, the buildings look tiny in relation to the large monkey thing.

34. Alternating Rhythm

alternating the color and direction of the fish make the pattern different, more rhythmic.

33. Progressive Rhythm

This picture represents progressive rhythm, the image is getting larger as it moves along the page.

32. Absence of Focal Point

there is no focal point in this painting by Jackson Pollock. Your eye isn't directed to one particular point

31. Degree of Emphasis

30. Emphasis by Placement

by placing the bar to the left farther away from the others it creates emphasis.

29. Emphasis by Isolation

This image is a more literal example of emphasis by isolation. The man on the left is isolated from the rest of the people, making him the focal point.

28. Emphasis by Contrast

This painting shows emphasis by contrast, the woman's face is the focal point the higher contrast makes it more noticeable.

27. Crystallographic Balance

26. Radial Balance

25. Asymmetrical Balance

24. Symmetrical Balance

either side of this butterfly is exactly. the same. making it symmetrical

23. Unity with Variety

"Each man is different and some are wearing different colors, but with all of them in the same stance and looking the same direction there is a sense of unity".

22. Unity through Continuity

21. Unity through Continuation

20. Unity through Repetition

the repetition on the sunflower leaves shows repetition through unity.

19. Unity through Proximity

This painting by Thomas Eakins exhibits unity through proximity. We see a contrast of light colors in the foreground with the bodies with darker colors in the background with the scenery.

18. Visual Texture

This is an example of texture in it's most obvious form, of you were to touch that chair, you would feel the bumps on it physically.

17. Tactile Texture

The texture on this photo is easy to see.. tactical in a way that if you want to touch it, you cannot because it is just a photograph.

16. Value as Emphasis

This image is from one of my favorite artists, Salvador Dali. The emphasis is on the central focus rather than something as obvious as what you may think he would put emphasis on.

15. Value as Pattern

the value is black and white, the pattern is the checkerboard.

14. Curvilinear Shapes

13. Rectilinear Shapes

12. Nonobjective Shapes

These photographs are of my brother and his new tattoo. The shapes are very non-objective because they don't represent anything visually when you look at it, it's only shapes.

11. Abstraction

the abstraction in this painting is obvious, the face was abstracted to look differently.

10. Idealism

“Idealists believe that the spiritual, nonmaterial world is ultimately real. They see the world as the creation of a great universal mind, the mind of the Absoulute of God. For idealists, the person’s spiritual essence, or soul, is the permanent element of human nature that gives individuals the power to think and feel” (Ornstein, 2011).

9. Distortion

A good example of distortion, creating focal point where without manipulation wouldn't have been in the same area.

8. Naturalism

This painting depicts naturalism because it was painted with the intention of looking very natural and life-like.

7. Lost and Found Contour

This image is so obvious when it comes to contour lines, but looking at it for a little while the contour becomes more obvious.

6. Line as Value

Line as value in this photo is apparent because of the contrast and the difference between the lights and darks.

5. Gesture Line

This image reminds me of gesture lines, lines that imply movement.

4. Contour Line

Contor lines are lines drawn to create the shape of an image, I picked the clothes pins because we did a contour drawing of clothes pins in my drawing class.

3. Line as Emotion

This painting is extremely dramatic and emotional, the curvy and diagonal lines create an un easy and emotional vibe to the painting.

2. Line as Direction

Line as direction in "The creation of Adam" are essential to direct the viewers eye to the direction God and Adam are pointing.

1. Line as Shape

Line in this drawing creates shape, and shapes that are essential to create the desired image, I like this image because it uses vertical and curvy lines.
