Illusion Of Motion by Multiple Image

Illusion of Motion can be achieved a couple ways. My favorite is the multiple image.

In this picture the persons arm is in motion, you can tell this by the way the image is copied and shown to create a waving motion with his left arm.

45-Illusion Of Motion by Blurred Outline

Blurred outline can have a movement effect on a piece of art. it gives you a sence that the captured movement cant keep up with the pace the object was traveling.

This picture shows a man yelling and moving away to the left side of the picture.

44-Illusion Of Motion by Repeated Figure

Repeated Figures can also show movement sort of like a multiple image but it is slightly different for showing repeated figures spaced to show movement.

This is an excellent example of a repeated figure showing movement. It is the exact same picture of the snowboarder but it is repeated and spaced to give the illusion of movement.

43-Anticipated Motion

Anticipated Motion can be seen in art through mostly real events or pictures. It is giving when the object is in its kenetic form and you are able to tell what will happen next.

In the picture above you are able to tell that the bird in the sling shot is, if not already, going to be flung in the air and shot out of the sling. You are able to anticiate the blue birds movement.

42-Spatial Puzzles

Spatial Puzzles are pieces of art that are hard to differenciate the foreground and background.

41-Multiple Perspective

Multiple Perspectives is art that can be seen from different angle and seem correct and sometimes illusionary.

If you look at this painting they both look correct because each hand is drawing one another and creates an illusion using different angles from which the eye will look at the hands.

40-Amplified Perspective

Amplified Perspective is a very dramatic view of a subject point out directly at the viewer. Most people realize the closer you are to an object, the bigger it appears, but this perspective exaggerates that view to cause a greater sense of depth.

39-Illusion Of Space by Linear Perspective

This is when the illusion of space or depth is created through linear or one point perspective is created.

Space and depth are created due to the point of the railroad tracks ending at the focal point creating the illusion.

38-Illusion Of Space by Aerial Perspective

Can also be described as "atmospheric perspective" and is judged by how objects in the distance are effected by the atmosphere.

Here in this picture the mountains in the background are lightened to give it the appearance of disappearing in the distance.

37-Illusion Of Space by Vertical Location

This is told from the vertical lines created by objects in the work of art, that help space the art and show distance by moving up the page for example:

36-Illusion Of Space by Overlapping

By overlapping objects you can easily create a since of depth in the picture.

In this poster you can obviously tell he is in the distance because he is behind the words.

35-Scale Confusion

Using different perspective you can make objects in the distance that are larger and smaller and manipulate the objects and scale them to them to work in the art work.

34-Progressive Rhythm

33-Progressive Rhythm

In this picture the rythm is continued by the planks in the fence gradually getting smaller and closer together. it shows progression because it is constant with its spacing between planks deminishing.

32-Absense Of Focal Point

An Absense in of a focal point is not as uncommon as it may seem. To not have a focal point the artist insisted on having the peice of art as a whole, or just wanted to create something without catching the viewers eye.
In this picure, it is mainly just all grass and does not have a focal point to draw the attention somewhere in the work of art.

31-Degree Of Emphasis

Degree of Emphasis can be any number of things. A major contrast in color to emphasize an object, making things cetered or off center to draw the attention somewhere on the work of art. And also the size of objects can play a significant role in emphasis.

In this picture it easy to pic out the emphasized object because of the contrast in color.

30-Emphasis By Placement

The focal point is placed on the top right corner to draw attention to it.

29-Emphasis By Isolation

The focal point is created by space or distance from other objects in the piece of art work.

28-Emphasis By Contrast

The focal point is created mainly with lack or boost in color.

27-Crystallographic Balance (All Over Pattern)

It has equal weight throughout and could also by symmetrical.
The pattern is created all over creating balance and making it equal.

26-Radial Balance

Radial is close to a term related to circles, in this a art that is close to being symmetrical in a circular way can be considered Radial Balanced.

25-Asymmetrical Balance

Pretty much sums it up.... Asymmetrical the left side is heavier and is not equal to the line on the right side of the figure.

24-Symmetrical Balance

Symmetrical Balance is the equality a picture creates by having same or like values on either side to create an equal weight. And sometimes even a mirror image.

In this picture the bedside tables along with the lamps and pictures create an equal picture that is symmetrical. Same on both sides.

23-Unity Through Variety

The unity can be formed by having the same things, if the objects are in relation to one another. It is created here by having different colors to create the variety but is still unified by the same shape and same size circles.

22-Unity Through Continuity

The visual relationship between two or more individual designs is known as continuity.
Artists will often use a tool called a grid to help aid in building a framework to a design that creates unity within a composition. 
Andy Warhol in this picture created continuity by making a grid of his images. 

21-Unity Through Continuation

Unity Through Continuation is when a line or shape can be made out in the picture. For example, here the dominos in the distance create a line that has been formed from continuation of dominos.

20-Unity Through Repetition

Repetition is using the same visual item over again which creates unity within the composition. It can almost be anything in a picture that repeats. Like the Oranges create repetition of color, and the Whiskey Barrels create repetition through circles.

19-Unity Through Proximity

Proximity is the degree of closeness in the placement of elements,and this can help create unity. If items are placed far apart they can seem unrelated, but placing items close together groups them together and unifies the image.

In this picture the golf balls a grouped closely together to create a relationship with one another. If they were spread apart and not stacked it would not have the certain message. These are all grouped to tell the person where to hit so the person hitting knows that these are their golf balls. If they were all scattered it would not be organized on the driving range.

18-Visual Texture

Unlike tactile texture, visual texture on the other hand plays a trick on your eyes making you believe it has feel or texture but the actual painting itself is smooth and flat to the surface.

In this picture you can see the roughness and ridges even though it is a photograph and is perfectly flat.

17-Tactile Texture

Using layers and layers of paint on a canvas the artist creates a texture you can feel from the work of art.

One of the first and most famous artist that used this style as Vincent Van Gogh. As you see in this picture you can almost feel the paint he layers on.

16-Value as Emphasis

Emphasis on value is an exageration on like light or dark in a work of art using little to no color. Because value meaning lights and darks.

In this picture the white flame creates the easy focal point and is the center and most emphasized in the picture due to its exaggeration in value.

15-Value as Pattern

Value as pattern refers to how the brightness and darkness is used in a work of art.

This circle shows the dynamics of value from its extreme black and white ranges that differ with a random pattern.

14-Curvilinear Shapes

Curvilinear Shapes are on the opposite side of this realm and have mush more of a flowing feel to them, due to the shapes the bowing lines and the curves that they make.

The curves and shapes in this painting are all based and buit upon the shapes that are made by them.

13-Rectilinear Shapes

Rectilinear shapes are all longates squares with straight lines and exact 90 degree angles. Rectilinear shapes can be found almost anywhere you look.

In this photo you see the bar, cabinets, and storage places all broken into rectilinear shapes.

12-Nonobjective Shape

Non-Objective Art is another way to interpret Abstract art the artwork does not represent or depict a person, place or thing in the natural world. Usually, the content of the work is its color, shapes, brushstrokes, size, scale, and, in some cases, its process.

In this picture the Dekooning usses its organic and geometric shapes along with color to create this work of art.

11-Absraction

Abstract Art is art that is not an accurate representation of a form or object. This representation can be differed in many ways including the shape, color, and form. The artist takes the object and then either simplifies it or exaggerates it.

In this picture the artist simplified the work by not making definite shapes or lines but just scattered and random globs of color.

10-Idealism

Idealism shows the corections to the objects flaws. A "in a perfect world" kind of thing. Everything is greatened and done correctly with atmospheric cosmeics that make it more of a dream state kind of feel.

In the picture shows a perfect mountain ridge setting, the ideal relaxation and perfect place for comfort.

9-Distortion

Distortion can be any change made by an artist in the size, or position of forms based on visual perception, when those objects are organized into a image.

In this painting the artist exaggerated the objects features. The big nose, the bulging eye brows and so forth.

8-Naturalism

Naturalism in art refers to how things real things look in its own natural setting. The raw image in art if you will... Keeping the aspects mass and volume in line with how they would look in real life.

In this picture the painter really exuberated in giving the trees and life of realness to this work of art. The colors are true and sizes in the picture make it believeable.

7-Lost and Found Contour

Lost and found Contour is having impartial and incomplete lines that your brain allows you to finish around an object with the colors and shadows light creates. 

Even tough in this picture of the woman you can see her face the outline of here body is lost but can be finished by knowing what normally a body should look like even though it is incomplete.

6-Line as Value

Line as value refers to the lightness and darkness in a picture. The shadows the lines create around objects. Also referred to as contrast.

In this picture of own I used hatching and other shading techniques to show depth and shadows that are created by the veins and muscles in the arm and hand.

5-Gesture Line

Gesture Lines capture more the motion or action of the object rather than the focus and perfection of it. The lines seem more sketched out and rigid instead of being a single line creating a complete object.

In this picture the gesture lines shows the movement in the dancer and captures greatly the action in the objects movement.

4-Contour Line

Contour lines connect around a figure, usually curves, make a focusing and outlying shape that make the viewer focus around an object.

The main outline around Goofy with his shirt, hands, face, and hat are all the same value. Contour lines form the shapes that make it obvious objects such as the cartoon Goofy.

3-Line as Emotion

Depending on the line it can make you feel differently just by the way it makes a certain shape or the way it curves and moves in the piece.

This picture depicts frustration with the wild, slender lines. The jaggedness and mess they create confirm the work of art to be very crazy and hectic making it come across as frustration.

2-Line Direction

Directional lines allow paintings to have horizons with "horizontal" lines, "vertical" lines allow separation in piano keys, but diagonal lines a bit different. They cross the canvas or page a bit different. They bing your eyes to focus on an object or away from something. Bringing objects to life or detailing.

In this picture the lines create an interesting scene and make your eyes run across the page like wild fire. The lines add life to the picture horizontal and vertical lines can not.

1-Line As Shape

Line as shape, the basic and very simple can also be complex. Its the starting point of almost every work of art. Lines make the shapes you see in art pieces. 

The picture above is very detailed with lines that make shapes. Colors are absent in this drawing, which let the lines really "pop" and tell the story instead of color.
