Texture

Texture is the quality of the object. In this picture the quality of the dog's face is shown because it has been enlarged. This shows a 3d illusion. There are two types of textures. One of them is real texture and the other one is implied texture. This picture shows real texture because it is the actual texture of the object and not the illusion of a two dimensional piece.

Space

When you look at this picture your attention is directed to the dog's face because the background is so plain that the dog's face is emphasized. This picture shows space because in this picture it creates the illusion of depth. This picture can be divided into two parts. One of them is the postive space and the other is the negative space. The postive space is the dog's face and the negative space is the plain background.

Size

In this picture the basket is zoomed in to see it more clearly. Size is simply the area occupied by a shape compared to the area of another shape. Size is sort of like texture because in this picture it shows the texture of the basket. The picture is so zoomed in that you cannot see anything behind it or around it so you are directed to the center of the basket. In this picture the value scale is used because the pink goes darker going out which creates depth in the picture.

Shape

In this photograph your eye is attracted to the womans dress. The background is very plain so the dress catches your attention. Your eyes follow the form of how her arm and her dress are kind of like a shape. Geometric shapes and organic shapes are two categories of shapes. This picture is a geometric shape because it is flowy and not directly straight.

Value

Value is the lightness to darkness in the picture that establishes the depth of the picture.It is created by a light source that creates highlights. In this picture the light source is directed on the face of the little girl which creates value. The value scale is the what shows the gradual change in the value from its lightest to its darkest. When you look at this picture the face is what attracts your attention because it contrasts with the dark background thanks to the light source.

Line

Line is a pathway that the eye is attracted to in a picture. Line is edge created where the two lines meet. In this picture the eye follows the direction of the weaving in the basket. The eye is also attracted to the shadow of the lines because the colour stands out from the background of it. The lines create a 3d image that attracts your attention to the shadow of the image. Your eye is also attracted to the attention of how at the bottom of the basket it starts going from dark to light.

Colour

This picture shows the element of design for colour. It shows this because when you look at the picture your eye right away looks at the green fish. The orange colour does not attract the eye because the green fish is much brighter and is an unusual fish. Even though orange and green are both secondary colours one of them is emphasized more than the other. Since orange and green are opposites they contrast so it catches your attention.
