Dimension, Depth, Space, and Scale



          This image is a fan-made version of Taylor Swift's Speak Now album artwork. The artist incorporated dimension, depth, space, and scale in to the design. The motion of Swift's dress conveys that the image has dimension rather than being a totally flat picture. The "Speak Now" placed in front of Swift adds depth to the image because of the fact that it was placed in front of her rather than above, below, or on either side of her.The contrast and lighting on Swift's skin also portrays depth and dimension. The water color stroke and paint splatter brushes used to create the background of this image use both the elements of space and scale. The darker brushes are spaced out evenly so that the photograph is not uneven, and the dark water color splatter underneath Swift was designed to look like an artistic shadow of her dress, thus incorporating the element of space. The sizes of the brushes that were used definitely incorporate scaling. Swift looks a bit smaller than some of the brushes used but larger than others. This gives the image a sort of abstract feel.
