geometric form

this is an example of geometric form because it consists of geometric shapes and crisp edges rather than flowing curves and is a 3-dimensional object.

wedging

this requires kneading and massaging the clay to align clay particles and getting rid of air bubbles trapped inside the clay.

organic form

this example has many flowing and vivid lines and curves rather than straight and crisp edges, for example the holes in the sphere are mostly curved and round.

geometric shape

this includes straight lines making shapes on a 2 dimensional surface.

organic shape

the shapes in this art piece are asymmetrical and unbalanced.

stylized art

llbui100 — 2015-04-18 21:06:38 UTC

a type of art, not natural nor real but pleasing to look at

representational art

llbui100 — 2015-04-18 23:05:39 UTC

this form of artwork is clearly recognizable, unlike abstract art

volume

llbui100 — 2015-04-18 23:32:36 UTC

a 3-dimensional form that contains space.

contrast

llbui100 — 2015-04-18 23:35:08 UTC

this defines the colors in this art by arranging opposite elements such as colors and textures to create visual interest.

proportion

llbui100 — 2015-04-18 23:44:32 UTC

the relation to size and parts of a whole, objects in the the art piece, as the feet in this bear are unequal to the rest of the bear. as we also associate proportion and size relations within the human body.

texture

llbui100 — 2015-04-19 00:14:28 UTC

this gives off a feel in touch or visually, as the scratched-like texture gives off a feel.

utilitarian design

llbui100 — 2015-04-19 00:18:17 UTC

this means an art form can some how be functional, as this photo of a designed shovel can not necessarily be utilized, but gives of the srt-like look.

slab (in ceramics

llbui100 — 2015-04-19 00:27:49 UTC

the process of rolling out clay equally all throughout

score (in ceramics)

llbui100 — 2015-04-19 00:30:04 UTC

the process of using a needle tool or scoring tool to scratch the clay, so later on when the slip is added, it fills in all the crevasses in the clay, molding it together.

scale

llbui100 — 2015-04-19 00:36:11 UTC

this is associated with the relation to two completely separate objects, as this is related to an average person, this is out of scale, considering how large it is.
