Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences. Look closely at the image above. When you look at this image, how would you describe it? Where does your eye want to go when you look at this piece? Include the elements of design and/or vocabulary terms in your response.

Answer:

The artwork is a black-and-white close-up of a woman’s profile, paired with words stacked vertically along the left side. The strong contrast between light and dark values makes her facial features stand out against the background. My eye first follows the words down the left side and then moves toward her eye, nose, and lips. The repeated placement of the text creates a vertical rhythm and connects the phrase to the image.
