Review Week 5

This artwork shows value. With the black butterflies and white background, a contrast is very clear. Contrast can really enhance an image by showing the difference between the two objects. Not only does it show a difference between the objects, it shows the object's sizes in relevance to each other. 






This artwork has a use of shapes. The shapes being used are diagonal toothpick shaped lines reused over and over. This use of simple objects can really add a sense of simplicity to a piece. Using simple shapes makes the viewer appreciate what such simple shapes can do.







This artwork shows the use of texture. Just by looking at this artwork, you can almost feel the dry paint on this wall. The artist shows visually that the wall is stained and is dry. Using this element can add more detail and description to your artwork.





This artwork shows the use of lines to make artwork. Only lines are used to make up this piece. The lines are all different colors, but go in the same direction. The direction can also show the emotions that the artist is trying to convey. These
straight lines show calm feelings. Having a feeling to your artwork really makes it special.



This artwork shows the use of space. The earth being the positive space and the black being the negative space. The earth and the things on it are being surrounded by the negative space which makes this piece have the use of spaces. The use of space can really make the viewer focus on what's important in a piece.
