| Question | Answer |
| Academic | Art that conforms to established traditions and approved conventions as practiced in form art schools. Academic art stresses standards, set procedures and rules. |
| achromatic | relating to color perceived on in terms of neutral grays from light to dark. WITHOUT HUE |
| additive color | color created by superimposing light rays |
| analogous color | colors closely related in hue, usually adjacent on color wheel |
| chroma | the purity of a hue or its freedom from white, black, or gray. the intensity of a hue (saturation) |
| chromatic | the presence of color |
| chromatic value | the relative degree of lightness or darkness demonstrated by a given color |
| color | the visual response to different wavelengths of sunlight identified as red, green, blue and so on |
| color tetrad | four colors equally spaced on the color wheel containing a primary and it's complement and a complementary pair of intermediates. |
| color triad | three colors equally spaced on the color wheel forming an equilateral triangle. color wheel made up of a primary triad, a secondary triad, and two intermediate triads. |
| complementary colors | two colors directly opposite on the color wheel. a primary color is the complement to a secondary color which is a mixture of the two remaining primaries. |
| high-key color | any color that has a value level of middle gray or lighter. |
| hue | the generic name of a color. also designates a color's position in the spectrum or on the color wheel. |
| intensity | the saturation, strength, o purity of a hue. a vivid color is of high intensity, a dull color is of low intensity |
| intermediate color | a color produced by a mixture of a primary and a secondary color |
| intermediate triad | a group of three intermediate colors that are equally spaced on the color wheel and form an equilateral triangle. 2 groups on the color wheel |
| local (objective) color | the color seen in the objective world (green grass, blue sky, red barn) |
| low-key color | any color that has a value of middle gray or darker |
| monochromatic | having only one hue. may include the complete range of a value from white to black. |
| neutralized color | color that has been grayed or reduced in intensity by being mixed with any of the neutrals or with a complementary color so that the mixture contains all three primaries in equal or unequal amounts. |
| neutrals | with neutrals no single color is noticed only a sense of light and dark or the range from white, through gray to black. A color that is altered by the addition of its complement so that the original sensation of hue is lost of grayed. |
| patina | a natural film, usually greenish that results from the oxidation of bronze or other metallic material. colored pigments or chemicals applied to a sculptural surface. |
| pigment | a color substance that gives its color property to another material by being mixed with it or covering it. |
| primary color | a preliminary hue that cannot be broken down or reduced into component colors. |
| primary triad | the three primary colors on the wheel, red-blue-yellow, which are equally spaced and from an equilateral triangle. |
| secondary color | a color produced by a mixture of two primary colors |
| secondary triad | three secondary colors on the color wheel green, orange, violet |
| shade (of color) | a color produced by mixing black with a hue which lowers the value level and decreases the quantity of light reflected. |
| simultaneous contrast | when two different colors come into direct contact the contrast intensifies the difference between them |
| spectrum | the band of individual colors that results when a bean of white light is broken into its component wavelengths identifiable as hues |
| split-complementary | a color and the two colors on either side of its complement |
| subjective color | that which is derived from the mind instead of physical reality and reflects a personal bias, emotion or interpretation. a subjective color tends to be inventive or creative. |
| subtractive color | the sensation of color that is projected with wavelengths of light are reflected back to the viewer after all the other wavelengths have been subtracted and/or absorbed |
| tertiary color | color resulting from the mixture of all three primaries, two secondaries, or complementary intermediates |
| tint | a color produced by mixing white with a hue which raises the value level and increases the quantity of light reflectied |
| tonality | a generic term for the quality of a color often indicating a slight modification in hue, value, or intensity (yellow with a greenish tone) |
| value | the relative degree of lightness or darkness |
| value pattern | the arrangement or organization of values that control compositional movement and create a unifying effect throughout a work of art |
| atmospheric perspective | the illusion of deep space produced in graphic works by lightening values, softening details, and textures, reducing value contrasts and neutralizing colors |
| decorative space | ornamenting or enriching but more importantly in art stressing the two-dimensional nature of an artwork |
| four-dimensional space | an imaginative treatment of forms that gives a sense of intervals of time or motion |
| fractional representation | a pictorial device (used notably by the Egyptians ) in which several spatial aspects of the same subject are combined in the same image |
| infinite space | a concept in which the picture frame acts as a window through which objects can be seen receding endlessly |
| installations | interior or exterior settings of media created by artists to heighten the viewers awareness of the environmental space |
| interpenetration | the positioning of planes objects or shapes so that they appear to pass through each other. |
| intuitive space | the illusion of space that the artist creates by instinctively manipulating certain space producing devices including overlapping, transparency, interpenetration...etc |
| isometric projection | a technical drawing system in which a three-dimensional object is presented two-dimensional , starting with the nearest vertical edge, the horizontal edges of the object are drawn at 30-degree angles and all verticals are projected perpendicularly from a horizontal base. |
| linear perspective | a system used to depict three-dimensional images on a two-dimensional surface, it develops the optical phenomenon of diminishing size by treating edges as converging parallel lines that extend to a vanish point or points on the horizon (eye level) and recede from the viewer. |
| oblique projection | a technical drawing system in which a three-dimensional object is presented two-dimensionally, the front and back sides of the object are drawn as parallels coming off the front plane at a 45- degree angle. |
| orthographic drawing | graphic representation of two-dimensional views of an object showing a plan, vertical elevations and/or a section. |
| perspective | any graphic system--including atmospheric perspective and linear perspective used in creating the illusion of three-dimensional images and/or spatial relationships in which the objects or their parts appear to diminish as they recede into the distance. |
| plastic space | the use of the elements to create the illusion of the third dimension on a two-dimensional surface. also three dimensional forms. |
| relief sculpture | an artwork, graphic, in concept but sculptural in application that utilizes relatively shallow depth to establish images. |
| reverse perspective | a graphic system for depicting three-dimensional images commonly seen in traditional east Asian art in which the parallel lines of objects or their parts seem to converge toward the viewer rather away in the distance. |
| shallow space | the illusion of limited depth. with shallow space the imagery appears to move only a slight distance back from the picture plane |
| space | the interval or measurable distance between points or images, can be actual or imaginary |
| structured ambiguity | a condition in which the positive figure and the negative background seem to reverse roles. |
| three-dimensional | possesses the dimensions of or illusion of height, width, and depth. |
| transparency | a visual quality in which a distant image or element can be seen through a nearer one. |
| two-dimensional | possesses the dimensions of height and width, especially when considering the flat surface or picture plane |
| void | an area lacking positive substance and consisting of negative space. |
| actual motion | the movement found in art forms like kinetic art |
| animation | rapid succession of a sequence of drawings, computer based images or pictures of objects that create the illusion of a moving image |
| cell | one image from a series of related images that presents an idea. common in graphic novels and comics |
| close-up | subjects fills camera frame |
| cross-cutting | cinematic technique that abruptly shifts from one event or character or another |
| dissolve | transition between images or scenes in which one disappears as another slowly appears |
| duration | length of time in which an activity takes place |
| fade | technique transition between scenes where the images darkens to black |
| flashback | technique of jumping to a sequence of events that is meant to have taken place in the past |
| flash-forward | technique that jumps to a sequence of events that take place in the future |
| four-dimensional space | an imaginative treatment of forms that gives a sense of intervals of time or motion |
| frame | a single static image as applied to cartoons, storyboards, animations, films videos or computer generated graphics |
| futurism | an early-twentieth century art movement that sought to express the fourth dimension through the speed power and motion of the industrial age |
| implied motion | the sense of illusion of movement given to a static object |
| installations | interior or exterior settings of media created by artists to heighten the viewers awareness of the environmental space |
| kinetic | means motion |
| long shot | technique that shows a distant view with a broader perspective of image. (filmmaking) |
| medium shot | cinematic technique that shows something between a close-up and a long shot |
| mobile | three dimensional moving sculpture |
| motion | the process of moving |
| motion picture | the illusion of a moving image created by showing a series of still pictures in a rapid sequence |
| multimedia | combination of many different groups of media |
| multiple exposure | photographic technique that shows a figure in motion by displaying a rapid series of exposures within the same image |
| slow motion | slows movement and time in a film |
| still frame | one frame from a series of frames (related to cell) |
| superimposing | technique where various views of the same subject are placed on top of each other in the same image |
