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)
