    Which of the following is true of pattern? - ProProfs

    Which of the following is true of pattern?

    • It is defined as a repetitive motif

    • It is said to have a flattening effect

    • As seen here, the scale of motifs remains unchanged, regardless of its place in the picture plane

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    Pattern is defined as a repetitive motif. The flatness achieved in this image is partially due to the use of pattern, with its lack of scale changes, and lack of modeling. Scale of objects in a pattern do not change in relation to their placement in the picture plane. ( Like patterns on fabrics, they are not smaller at the top than on the bottom, as they do not intend to to imply depth.)

    Which terms are reflected in this sculpture? - ProProfs

    Which terms are reflected in this sculpture?

    • 3- dimensional

    • Kinetic

    • Sculpture in the round

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    Sculpture is three dimensional. If you can observe it from all sides, it is sculpture in the round. Sculpture that actually moves is kinetic.

    Which of the following techniques were used to imply depth in this work? - ProProfs

    Which of the following techniques were used to imply depth in this work?

    • Changes in scale according to placement in the picture plane (diminution)

    • Modeling

    • Linear perspective

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    Things closest to us are largest & most detailed (bottom of the picture plane). Objects get smaller and less defined as we move up the picture plane (diminution). The narrowing of the stream at the top of the picture plane reflects linear perspective.

    Concerning texture, which of the following are applicable? - ProProfs

    Concerning texture, which of the following are applicable?

    • Impasto

    • Actual texture

    • Implied texture

    • Impasto and actual texture

    Correct Answer
    A. Impasto and actual texture
    Explanation
    Texture is a surface quality that can be actual (something that can be felt) or implied (visual only, not a tactile quality). Impasto is the heavy application of paint that renders an actual texture that can be felt. This painting has actual texture, known as impasto.

    Because this is a drawing, not an actual package, it is said to be: - ProProfs

    Because this is a drawing, not an actual package, it is said to be:

    • Naturalistic

    • Realistic

    • Trompe l'oeil

    • All of the above

    • Naturalistic and realistic only

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    A photo is a yardstick of reality. This drawing looks like the actual object therefore it can be described as naturalistic or realistic. Trompe l'oeil, "to fool the eye" in French, is used to describe such faithfulness in representation.

    Considering scale of objects, in relation to the picture plane, which of the following is not true? - ProProfs

    Considering scale of objects, in relation to the picture plane, which of the following is not true?

    • Objects closest to the viewer are largest

    • Objects closest to the viewer are most the detailed

    • The scale of objects changes with their placement in the picture plane; they get larger towards the top

    • Objects in the background are shown as smaller and less detailed

    Correct Answer
    A. The scale of objects changes with their placement in the picture plane; they get larger towards the top
    Explanation
    In reality, mountain is far larger than a tree. However, in a painting, a mountain is depicted on a smaller scale to imply depth.

    Concerning 2-D art and movement, which of the following is not true? - ProProfs

    Concerning 2-D art and movement, which of the following is not true?

    • Movement can only be implied in a 2-D work of art

    • 2-D art is said to be kinetic

    • Movement can be implied through the use of repetitive forms

    Correct Answer
    A. 2-D art is said to be kinetic
    Explanation
    Actual movement is only reflected in video/film or in kinetic art. Movement is only implied in 2-D art through repetition or diagonal lines.

    What type of perspective is not used in this painting? - ProProfs

    What type of perspective is not used in this painting?

    • One-point linear perspective

    • Two-point linear perspective

    • Isometric perspective

    • Atmospheric perspective

    Correct Answer
    A. Isometric perspective
    Explanation
    The receding barrel vaults at the top of the painting indicate 1-point linear perspective. The man leaning on the short column marks the use of two point linear perspective (corner of the column faces the viewer). Isometric perspective, used in Asian art has parallel lines that do not converge ( not shown here). Atmospheric perspective is the loss of details in the distance
