“Manners” and answer questions

4. Unity/Variety: When an artist wants to make a subject stand out, he or she can surround that subject by objects of a different color, size, placement, and/or shape. To create unity, the artist must instead use objects, colors, placement, and/ or shapes that are similar to each other.
Contrast: To emphasize an element or a section of an element, or to convey the illusion of volume, artists use contrast. Contrast can take the form of changes in lights and darks, color, shape, or placement.
Figure/Ground Relationships: In design terms, the “figure” is the subject and the “ground” is the space around the subject. Ideally, a balance exists between these two areas.
Color: Artists deliberately use color to emphasize or de- emphasize compositional elements and/or convey a variety of ideas and moods.
Texture: Texture can be tactile, as in the etched letters on a monument, or implied, as in a photograph of a woven basket or other textured object. The absence of texture is also a texture — a smooth texture.
