Emphasis example 1

This peice is an example of Emphasis because the fish is made to stand out in contrast to the blue “water” background. The fish being made up of different oranges emphasizes the fish in the water. The placement also emphasizes the fish as moving rather than if it was placed directly in the middle it wouldnt feel like movement.

Emphasis example #3

Emphasis is shown here by centering the focus of the piece. It also makes the umbrella pop by using bright colors compared to the others shown. This is also the only umbrella where the viewer can see part of the persons face.

I found this lesson on princetonol.com and my students ran with it. It is a project submitted by Amy Shapley. I leave my lessons open ended and this allows for more creativity than I could ever dream up. I have done this project twice with middle school students. They need to work in a quiet room because this project can easily go wrong. I love the results, my students never cease to amaze and inspire me. They asked me if they could add color, I was hesitant but I am so happy that I agreed…

10. This work of art displays emphasis in three different ways. First, the single flower is made red, which draws the attention immediately. Second, all of the surrounding flowers are a whiter color and are blurred, leaving the single red flower to be the only thing in focus. Third, the red flower is smaller than all of the surrounding flowers, drawing attention to it as well.
