    Explanation
    The artist uses a computer to create his art. This implies that the artist relies on digital technology and software to produce his artwork. Using a computer allows the artist to utilize various digital tools and techniques that may not be possible with traditional mediums such as pencil or chalk. It also suggests that the artist may work with digital art forms like graphic design, digital painting, or 3D modeling, where a computer is an essential tool.

    • A.

      Yes

    • B.

      No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "yes" because the picture appears to have been taken from a specific point of view, with objects appearing smaller as they recede into the distance. This suggests the use of perspective, which is a technique used in art and photography to create depth and give the illusion of three-dimensional space.

    She is being objectified?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    A. True
    Explanation
    The correct answer is true because objectification refers to the act of treating a person as an object or commodity, often focusing solely on their physical appearance or sexual attractiveness.

    A piano is a

    • A.

      Woodwind instrument

    • B.

      Percussion instrument

    • C.

      Stringed instrument

    • D.

      Brass instrument

    Correct Answer(s)
    B. Percussion instrument
    C. Stringed instrument
    Explanation
    A piano is considered a percussion instrument because it produces sound by striking strings with hammers when the keys are pressed. This striking action is similar to other percussion instruments like drums, where sound is produced by hitting or striking the instrument. Additionally, a piano is also considered a stringed instrument because the sound is produced by vibrating strings. When the keys are pressed, the hammers strike the strings, causing them to vibrate and produce sound. Therefore, a piano falls under both the categories of percussion and stringed instruments.

    Explanation
    Gridding is a technique used in art and design to break down an image or composition into a grid system. This helps in accurately transferring the image onto a larger surface or canvas. By dividing the image into smaller sections, artists can focus on one area at a time, ensuring proportion and perspective are maintained. This technique is commonly used in drawing, painting, and even in photography to accurately reproduce an image.

    Correct Answer
    B. Draw the picture in small pieces to help with proportion
    Explanation
    This technique is used to draw the picture in small pieces to help with proportion. By breaking down the drawing into smaller parts, it becomes easier to accurately capture the proportions and relationships between different elements. This method allows the artist to focus on each section individually, ensuring that they are correctly sized and placed in relation to one another.

  • 32. 

    Abstract art is always trying to look like real life

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Abstract art is not trying to look like real life. In fact, it is the opposite. Abstract art focuses on the use of colors, shapes, forms, and gestural marks to achieve its own unique visual language, often departing from any representation of recognizable objects or scenes. It aims to evoke emotions, sensations, or ideas rather than depict realistic images. Therefore, the statement that abstract art is always trying to look like real life is incorrect.

  • 33. 

    Super models are objectifieded 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Super models are often objectified in the media and fashion industry. They are often seen as mere objects of desire, valued solely for their physical appearance rather than their talent or personality. This objectification reduces them to a narrow definition of beauty and can lead to harmful effects on their self-esteem and body image. Super models are often expected to conform to unrealistic beauty standards and are often judged and critiqued solely based on their physical attributes. This objectification perpetuates harmful stereotypes and reinforces the idea that women's worth is determined by their appearance.

    Rate this question:

  • 34. 

    This image is symmetrical 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The image being symmetrical means that it can be divided into two equal halves that are mirror images of each other. In this case, since no specific image is mentioned or provided, it is impossible to determine if the image is symmetrical or not. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined and the statement "False" is not a valid response.

      The giant circle

    • C.

      The repeated shapes

    Correct Answer
    C. The repeated shapes
    Explanation
    The repeated shapes in the picture are creating rhythm. Rhythm refers to the visual flow or movement within an artwork. In this case, the repetition of shapes creates a sense of pattern and movement, which adds a rhythmic quality to the overall composition.

    Rate this question:

  • 36.

    • A.

      Clone tool

    • B.

      Selection tool

    • C.

      Move tool

    Correct Answer
    A. Clone tool
    Explanation
    The clone tool is most likely used to remove blemishes from the woman's face. This tool allows the user to duplicate a selected area and apply it to another part of the image, effectively covering up imperfections. The selection tool is used to outline a specific area for editing, while the move tool is used to relocate elements within the image. However, neither of these tools specifically address the removal of blemishes.
