Clothing/Fashion World- I believe the use of line in the design, texture in fabrics and contrast in colors.
ReplyDeleteFood/Quisine - You hear alot about the texture of food, for example some people may like the taste of a banana, but because of the texture, they do not eat it.
Media - Im not sure if media might be considered an art, but I think that contrast in lighting/colors in the movies would be an example.
Interior/Exterior Design - I have heard of line, texture and contrast being used in this field, like line of a room drawing a person to the focal point, texture of walls or brick, contrast of lighting/colors of paint.
Natural Elements - The texture of trees, leaves, plants, animals. Possibly even contrast, like the sun breaking thru dark clouds.
Lines: you would hear while waiting in a checkout line, while waiting in a line for the bathroom in walmart, in a preschool class when they are learning how to color in the lines, in marching-band on the field,

Lines- Backyard landscaping- the way it was planted, grouped together, and both horizontal and verical planes. Family picture- the lines in the background creates pattern, set a mood and provide a visual texture.

Contrast- Flowers in front of the church- it was the colors, shapes, and branch patterns that gave it, its contrast.
