Space

    Space is artist’s decision on where to place objects on the canvas versus how much room to give to non-essential, background elements. 

    They use space to show the illusion of depth by: 

  • Size and Vertical location: We perceives object that are higher and smaller on the page as being further away. 
  • Overlapping: When an object partially obscured by another object in front of them, we perceive them as farther away. 
  • Detail: Objects which are farther away are blur. 
  • Linear Perspective: a lot of lines point to one point.
