Sometimes called the 'background'. Neutral-colours = Colors that are neither warm nor cool. Organic = Shapes and figures based on nature or living things. Pastel = A type of drawing utensil consisting of chalk. Perspective = A technique that shows distance and the dimensions of objects (e.g. a piece that shows a street view, the houses gradually get smaller and smaller the further it supposedly is) Positive Space = The area which are images, figures, shapes, etc. Representational Art = Art that shows what the artist thinks something unknown/unseen to mankind would look like yet would still be recognized by viewers.

Flowing Stroke: A wavy and curvy line. Starving Stroke: Using the brush until it completely runs out of paint. Rolling Stroke: The artist rolls the brush across the canvas. Parallel Stroke: Lines side by side pointing the same direction. Glazing: A layer of paint applied to a layer of dried paint.
