Blended shading- creating a gradual transition of color or value

Contour Line- it is really just an outline of the subject 

Highlights- an area that shows how light is hitting an object

Shadows- an area that shows where light is not hitting an area

Space- an element of art that refers to the space around or within an object (we are doing a close up view that should fill the entire paper with the object)
