What media can you use to create a drawing?
-
Pencil, tempera paint, or crayon
-
Pencil, charcoal, pen, or ink
-
Crayon, colored pencil, or clay
-
Yarn, watercolor paint, or markers

Changeover lines are lines that:
-
You draw close together around an obstacle such as a letter.
-
Cross over a picture to change it into a positive/negative abstract art.
-
Go to the vanishing point to create a perspective drawing.
-
You draw to correct your drawing after you erase a mistake.
Correct Answer
A. Cross over a picture to change it into a positive/negative abstract art. -

Different types of lines are:
-
Contour, dense, diagonal, emphasis.
-
Curved, straight, zigzag, obstacle.
-
Formal, hard-edge, horizontal, natural
-
Sketch, scribble, crosshatch, vertical
Correct Answer
A. Curved, straight, zigzag, obstacle.Explanation
The given answer lists different types of lines, including curved, straight, zigzag, and obstacle. These types of lines are commonly used in art and design to create different effects and convey various emotions or messages. Curved lines can add a sense of fluidity and grace, while straight lines can suggest stability and order. Zigzag lines can create a sense of energy or movement, and obstacle lines can represent barriers or challenges. Each type of line has its own unique characteristics and can be used strategically to enhance visual compositions.Rate this question:

The horizontal line with one vanishing point on it and where all lines converge is called:
-
One-point perspective.
-
Linear perspective
-
Two-point perspective
-
High and low placement
Correct Answer
A. One-point perspective.Explanation
The correct answer is one-point perspective. In one-point perspective, all lines in the scene converge at a single vanishing point on the horizon line. This technique is commonly used in art and design to create the illusion of depth and distance in a two-dimensional space. It is often used to depict objects or scenes from a frontal or direct viewpoint.Rate this question:

You drew circles, squares, cones, and cubes. One way to change these forms from 2-dimensions to 3-dimensions is to:
-
Stack the forms on top of each other.
-
Draw a circle, square, and triangle and color them different colors.
-
Create a light source and shade the forms from light to dark.
-
Put forms above and below the horizon line.
Correct Answer
A. Create a light source and shade the forms from light to dark. -

Objects placed lower on the page to create the illusion of depth:
-
Make the objects look closer.
-
Make the objects look lighter.
-
Make the objects look heavier.
-
Make the objects look smaller.
Correct Answer
A. Make the objects look closer.Explanation
When objects are placed lower on the page, it creates the illusion of depth by making them appear closer to the viewer. This is because we perceive objects that are positioned lower as being closer to us, while objects placed higher on the page appear farther away. Therefore, placing objects lower on the page gives the impression that they are closer in proximity.Rate this question:

Contour drawing refers to:
-
The lines and crosshatching used to draw.
-
Hard-edge lines that exaggerate a figure.
-
Implied lines that the viewer's eyes connect to form shapes.
-
The outside edges, as well as the defined enclosed edges of a person, object, or mass.
Correct Answer
A. The outside edges, as well as the defined enclosed edges of a person, object, or mass.Explanation
Contour drawing refers to the technique of drawing the outer edges of a person, object, or mass, as well as the defined enclosed edges. It involves carefully observing and tracing the visible contours, without shading or adding any details. This technique helps to define the shape and form of the subject, capturing its overall structure and outline. By focusing on the outside and enclosed edges, contour drawing creates a simplified representation that emphasizes the fundamental shapes and proportions.Rate this question:

One way to arrange forms to create 3-dimensions is to:
-
Draw dark forms at the top of the picture.
-
Use lines and forms on an angle.
-
Overlap forms in front of each other.
-
Draw the round forms at the bottom and the pointed forms at the top ov the picture.
Correct Answer
A. Overlap forms in front of each other.Explanation
To create 3-dimensional objects, overlapping forms in front of each other is a useful technique. This helps to give the illusion of depth and adds a sense of perspective to the picture. By overlapping the forms, it creates a sense of one object being in front of another, which is a key characteristic of three-dimensional space. This technique allows the viewer to perceive the objects as having depth and occupying different positions within the picture.Rate this question:

The height from which the viewer sees the scene is the:
-
Vanishing point.
-
One-point perspective.
-
High and low placement.
-
Horizon line.
Correct Answer
A. Horizon line.Explanation
The horizon line refers to the horizontal line that separates the sky from the ground or other elements in a scene. It represents the viewer's eye level or the height from which the viewer sees the scene. The other options, such as vanishing point, one-point perspective, and high and low placement, are not directly related to the viewer's height but rather to the perspective or placement of objects within the scene.Rate this question:
