Review Week 13

Repetition: The same image is repeated over and over throughout this design to create a interesting pattern.
Proportion: The fish is way bigger than the human, which is not realistic.  This helps grab the attention of the viewer.
Balance: Although the picture is not exactly symmetrical, the image is informally symmetrical, causing emotions of excitement and curiosity to the viewer.
Emphasis: The emphasis in the Mona Lisa is on the girl in the very front of the image because that is where the eyes go first.
Unity: This painting shows unity because the entire scene is pulled together.
Variety: Several different elements of design are used in this design, creating variety.
Rhythm: The rolling hills, cool colors, and fog are traits that create rhythm in this image. It shows depth.
Contrast: The different, contrasting, colors used in this image are meant to make the main image stand out from the background.

How do you add a layer mask to a particular layer?
After selecting the wanted layer, at the bottom of the layers palette, there is a small button that will create a mask for the layer when clicked on.
What two colors are used to create the mask?
Black and white
Describe the process of using a layer mask?
First, make sure that the mask is selected, not the actual picture. Then, make sure that the foreground color is black and the background color is white. Select the paint brush tool. After checking to make sure that the mode is normal and the opacity, flow, and hardness is 100%, begin painting around your image. When finished, link multiple layers together if you want them to move together!
