Description

CHAPTER SIX QUIZ Use the following key words in a true sentence. The sentence must be created from the materials in Chapter Six. The statement in the sentence must be qualified (supported by examples) to prove that you not only understand the key word , but can apply it correctly. Note the examples below. You can see that the incorrect example uses the key term but does not indicate that the term is understood. Create your own sentences using the terms.

EXAMPLE LOCAL COLOR LOCAL COLOR

EXAMPLE If I decide to create a representational painting, I would use local color, since I would want it to look realistic. INCORRECT EXAMPLE I used local color in my painting.

ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE

If I decided to use atmospheric perspective in a painting of the Sierra Nevada, the mountains that were farther away from the viewer would be light blue while the ones that were closer to the viewer would be a darker blue.

HIGHLIGHTS

CHIAROSCURO

If I were drawing a ball in the Sun, the highlight would be the part of the ball that directly reflected the light from the Sun; I would color that part white. If I was a Renaissance artist, I would use chiaroscuro in my drawings to make them look more realistic; the time of day would need to be perfect (so that it’s not too hot for my subject to be outside, but not too dark that I can’t draw my subject), so I could accurately detail the shadows on my subjects face while still taking

into account the light coming from the sun. TENEBRISM

If I used tenebrism like Gentileschi did in Judith and Maidservant with the HEad of Holofernes, I would paint a picture of someone who got caught stealing food from the kitchen fridge; the only light would be from the fridge (the rest of the image would be dark, except for the subject’s face and what they were trying to steal).

CROSS HATCHING

If I were to make a drawing of an apple, I would use cross hatching so that the apple would look three-dimensional.

COLOR WHEEL

If I used Newton’s color wheel, it could tell me what colors I could use that would go best with yellow and green (violet and red).

TINT

If I wanted to create a tint of red, I would add white to red to make pink.

SHADE

If I wanted to create a shade of red, I would add black to red to make maroon.

PRIMARY COLORS

If I were to paint a picture using the colors red, yellow, and blue, I would be using the three primary colors.

SUBTRACTIVE PROCESS

If I were to add all the colors of Newton’s color wheel together one by one, they’re combined color would get closer and closer to black; this is an example of a subtractive process. If I wanted to use an additive process, I could

ADDITIVE PROCESS

PALETTE

INTENSITY

ANALOGOUS COLOR

COMPLEMENTARY COLOR

VALUE

create a work of art combining different hues of colored light together which would cause the resulting mixture to be close to the color white. If I were to create a painting with the colors red, blue, and yellow, a viewer viewing my painting would say that I used a restricted palette (since I only used those three colors). The intensity of the colors in my red, blue, and yellow painting would not suit a clown if the colors were a low or dull intensity since clowns are known to wear loud (or high intensity/bright) colors. If I used yellow and orange in a painting, I would be using analogous colors.

If I used red and green in a painting, I would be using complementary colors.

If I used light blue and dark blue in a painting, I would be using different values of blue.
