  2. Composition (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_(visual_arts)

    Shape — areas defined by edges within the piece, whether geometric or organic; Color — hues with their various values and intensities; Texture — surface qualities which translate into tactile illusions; Value — Shading used to emphasize form; Form — 3-D length, width, or depth; Space — the space taken up by (positive) or in between ...

  3. Shape and form (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_and_form_(visual_arts)

    Geometric shapes are precise edged and mathematically consistent curves, [citation needed] they are pure forms and so consist of circles, squares, spirals, triangles, while geometric forms are simple volumes, such as cubes, cylinders, and pyramids. [3] They generally dominate architecture, technology, industry and crystalline structures.

  4. Vanishing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanishing_point

    A photo demonstrating a vanishing point at the end of the railroad. A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective rendering where the two-dimensional perspective projections of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge.

  5. Picture plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_plane

    In painting, photography, graphical perspective and descriptive geometry, a picture plane is an image plane located between the "eye point" (or oculus) and the object being viewed and is usually coextensive to the material surface of the work.

  6. Photogrammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photogrammetry

    Low altitude aerial photograph for use in photogrammetry. Location: Three Arch Bay, Laguna Beach, California. Photogrammetry is the science and technology of obtaining reliable information about physical objects and the environment through the process of recording, measuring and interpreting photographic images and patterns of electromagnetic radiant imagery and other phenomena.

  7. Anamorphosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anamorphosis

    The word is derived from the Greek prefix ana-, meaning "back" or "again", and the word morphe, meaning "shape" or "form". Extreme anamorphosis has been used by artists to disguise caricatures , erotic and scatological scenes, and other furtive images from a casual spectator, while revealing an undistorted image to the knowledgeable viewer.

  8. Depth of field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

    In general photography this is rarely an issue; because large f-numbers typically require long exposure times to acquire acceptable image brightness, motion blur may cause greater loss of sharpness than the loss from diffraction. However, diffraction is a greater issue in close-up photography, and the overall image sharpness can be degraded as ...

  9. Elements of art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elements_of_art

    A shape is a two-dimensional design encased by lines to signify its height and width structure, and can have different values of color used within it to make it appear three-dimensional. [2] [4] In animation, shapes are used to give a character a distinct personality and features, with the animator manipulating the shapes to provide new life. [1]
