| 5 color harmonies | monocromatic, complementary triadic, tetradic, analogous |
| What are the purposes of color? | symbolize an idea, convey an emotion, attract attention, accomplish aesthetic appeal, identify object by describing appearance |
| weight | the visual heaviness of an object |
| vanishing point | the point on th eye line at which parallel lines appear to converge |
| transition | process of changing from one state to the next |
| tint | a hue that has been mixed with white |
| triadic color harmony | color scheme based on 3 colors which are equidistant on the color wheel |
| temperature | the physical and psychological heat |
| symbolic color | a color that has been assigned a certain meaning |
| subtractive color | hue created when light is reflected off a colored surface |
| split complementary | a complementary color plus the two colors on either side of its complement |
| space | the area within or around an area of substance |
| shade | a hue that has been mixed with black |
| saturation | the purity or intensity of a color |
| relief | sculpture in whihc all forms project out from a flat surface |
| primary colors | colors that can be mixed with all colors- yellow, red, blue |

| installation | an artwork or a design that presents a emsemble of images within a 3 dimensional environment |
| illusionary space | representation of an object |
| hue | the name of a color that distingushes it from others and assigns it a position in the visual spectrum |
| horizon line | eh line which all vanishing points are positioned |
| harmony | a pleasing relationship among colors |
| gravity | the force that tends to pull all bodies toward the center of Earth |
| grid | a visual or physical structure created from intersecting parallel lines |
| expansion | the extending outward of materials to fill more space |
| divergent thinking | open-ended problem-solving strategy |
| descriptive critique | critique where the viewer describes what they see in the design |
| convergent thinking | problem-solving process in which a predetermined goal is pursued |
| critique | strengths and weaknesses of a design |
| chroma | the purity or saturation of a color |
| cause and effect | critique where the viewer seeks to determine the cause for each emotional effect |
| carving | the removal of materials from a larger mass |
| boundary | the dividing line between objects |
| base | horizontal support for a physical object |
| asymmetrical balance | objects that do not mirror each other, not equal |
| assemblage | an addative method in which the designer constructs the artwork using objects and images which were oiginally created for another purpose |
| analogous | hues that adjacent on the color wheel |
| afterimage | in color theory, a ghostly image that continues to linger after the image has been removed |
| additive color | color created by combining projected beams of chromatic light |
| actual line | lines which are physically present in design |
