all correct.
For question 2, the process that uses grease and water to reproduce many prints is called lithography. To find the answer, you can think about the different printing processes and their characteristics. Lithography is a common printing technique that involves using a flat surface and the principle that oil and water repel each other. The image is applied to a plate with oily materials, and then water is applied to the plate. The oily image areas repel the water, while the non-image areas retain the water. Ink is then applied to the plate, adhering to the oily image areas and creating the print.
For question 4, the term that describes the lightness or darkness of a color is value. To arrive at this answer, you can recall the different aspects of color. Hue refers to the specific color itself, intensity refers to the brightness or dullness of a color, and unity refers to the harmonious combination of elements in a piece of art. Value, on the other hand, refers to the lightness or darkness of a color, and it is a crucial element in creating contrast and depth.
For question 5, when gathering information about a piece of art, the best place to start is by analyzing the features (option B). To determine the answer, you can consider the logical approach to studying and understanding art. While getting a description of the artwork can provide some initial insights, it is through analyzing the features such as the composition, techniques, color choices, subject matter, and symbolism that a deeper understanding of the artwork can be gained. Judging the work's importance and interpreting surrounding influences of the artist might come later in the process of art analysis and interpretation.
For question 6, a design with raised areas used for applying ink is called a relief print (option D). To find the answer, you can think about the different types of printmaking techniques. Relief print refers to a design where the ink is applied to raised surfaces, typically found in woodcuts or linocuts. Casting and modeling are different techniques used in sculpture, while bas relief refers to a specific type of relief sculpture.
For question 7, the area taken up by an object or element in a work of art is called space (option B). To determine the answer, you can recall the different elements of art. Mass refers to the physical presence and weight of an object, form refers to a three-dimensional object or shape, and volume refers to the amount of space an object occupies. Space, however, refers to the area or illusion of depth within a two-dimensional artwork. It can include positive space (occupied by objects) and negative space (empty or surrounding areas).
