| Form describes volume and
mass or three-dimensional aspects of objects that take up space. Forms
can and should be viewed from many angles. When you hold a baseball, shoe,
or small sculpture you are aware of their curves, angles, indentations,
extentions, and edges- their forms.
Emphasis is used by artists
to create dominance and focus in their work. Artists can emphasize color,
value, shapes, or other art elements to achieve dominance. Various kinds
of contrast can be used to emphasize a center of interest.
An artist often uses focal
areas(centers of interest) to place emphasis on the most important aspect
of a work. |
