Scale and Proportion

Scale and Proportion-  This term basically refers to size, to determine that size you simply get to objects and place them next to each other and see which object is bigger or smaller than the other.

                                                                     The image below shows that there are two objects that seem a a lot bigger than the other.  The image in the far right corner also seems much bigger than the two in front but further away.

Color

 Color is the element of art that is produced when light, striking an object, is reflected back to the eye.

As you can see by the example by the images below color is displayed in three ways such as, what type of jewels are associated with that color, and how two different artist displayed them around the early 1980's.

This image shows how a simple hallways can seem like your going through a never ending point.  As you can see this image is in one perspective and has a vanishing point in the middle of the image.

This image gives the feeling that there is more to the image than what the eye can see.  While also in perspective it shows that there is a vanishing point at center of the image.
