This young man named mac was shot in a drive by shoot on a friday when a drug deal had gone wrong before he was shot. mac had fled the scene & on his way to get away he stopped at a light and shots fired from another vehicle.

a horse named leo who was ride by his owner Phillip were trying to get away from a fire that had occurs so the only way was to jump over the ring of fire to come out alive. this was on a sunday night right out side a bar that catches on fire.
 this man jen ling was set on fire on a monday at a protest in the city. Jen ran for his life trying to get some help to put out the fire. other spectators were afraid and others took photos.



PART 3



this photo shows balance. Because of the bikers and how its positioned clearly shows balance. I would also say pattern because shows the the people doing the same thing.

This photo of Mitt Romney shows id say space. Because it is focused of one object but the back ground is isolated. id also say shows view point because the angle this photo is taken it is taken from a certain view point. i think it also shows rule of thirds because in can be divided into squares.

In this photo is Cropping because this photo has no empty spaces the subject of the girl walking through then forest the plants show in every corner.

This photo best shows Rule Of Thirds . The most important elements in your scene along these lines, or at the points where they intersect, which is the person in the photo, doing this will add balance and interest to the photo.

Great black & white part3




What caught my attention on this photograph is the murder scene. Im interested in real life deaths, I have no idea why. I find it fascinating, and I liked this photo because its real. Honestly, if I was in the guys position, I WONT BE ABLE TO TASTE, HEAR, SEE, FEEL, OR SMELL. But if i could. I would taste blood since there is blood on the persons face. I would hear people screaming or police/ambulance sirens. I would smell my own blood since its on my nose too. I would feel the pain going on everywhere, and maybe people helping me up and such. I would see people freaking out around me and helping me up. 


What caught my attention on this photograph is that Frida Kahlo is posing normally, but we all know that she's really famous, so I chose this photograph. If I was in Frida Kahlo's point of view I would see the photographer. I would smell maybe food since she's having a guest over? I would hear the shutter sound of the camera taking the picture. I would taste the food I am cooking because I might be hungry. I would feel the furniture on my elbow.

Elements of Art

Line

 Lines are marks made by a pointed tool: brush, pencil, pen, etc. Lines can vary in width, direction, curvature, length, or color.



Shape

 Shapes are formed wherever the ends of a continuous line meet. Geometric shapes such as circles, triangles or squares have perfect, uniform measurements and don't often appear in nature. Organic shapes are associated with things from the natural world, like plants and animals.


 Color




 Value, or tone, refers to dark and light; the value scale refers to black and white with all gradations of gray in between.  Value contrasts help us to see and understand a two-dimensional work of art.


 Form

Form describes objects that are three-dimensional, having length, width, and height.



Texture

Texture can be rough, bumpy, slick, scratchy, smooth, silky, soft, prickly--the list is endless.  Texture refers to the surface quality, both simulated and actual, of artwork.


Space

Space refers to distances or areas around, between, or within components of a piece. Space can be positive (white or light) or  negative (black or dark), open or closed,shallow or deep, and two-dimensional or three-dimensional. 












Balance is the comfortable or pleasing arrangement of things in art. There are three different types of balance: symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial. The human figure is symmetrically balanced; the same on the left and right side. The tree is asymmetrically balanced; its branches are not distributed equally on each side, but their total weight is balanced left and right. The sun is an example of radial balance; all its rays are equal in length from the center.











Contrast is created by using elements that conflict with one another. Often, contrast is created using complementary colors or extremely light and dark values. Contrast creates interest in a piece and often draws the eye to certain areas. It is used to make a painting look interesting.










Emphasis in the focal area of an artwork gives it importance.  An artist may stress some elements of the design over others. The eye of the viewer will focus on the area of emphasis or center of interest first, then take in the rest of the composition. 









Movement in an artwork means the artist is taking viewers on a trip through the work by means of lines, edges, shapes, and colors often leading to the focal area.  Movement is a visual flow through the composition. It can be the suggestion of motion in a design as you move from object to object by way of placement and position.  Directional movement can be created with a value pattern. It is with the placement of dark and light areas that you can move your attention through the format.









Patterns are made in art when the same shapes or elements are repeated again and again.  Pattern uses the elements of art in planned or random repetitions to enhance surfaces of paintings or sculptures.








Rhythm is the repetition of shapes, lines, and forms.  Rhythm is a movement in which some elements recurs regularly.  Like a dance, it will have a flow of objects that will seem to be like the beat of music.











Unity means that all elements in an artwork are in harmony.  Unity brings together a composition with similar units.  For example, if your composition was using wavy lines and organic shapes you would stay with those types of lines and not put in even one geometric shape.
