General Information Modeling
Layering Model
Layering and gradation is the main concept for 47
this model.
A grading of size and direction produce linear
perspective. The illusion of reduced scale as
distance increases is a product of gradation in
size and direction.
gradation of color and tone, from warm to cool
and dark, to light produce aerial perspective. As
tone becomes lighter and colors become cooler,
apparent distance increases.
Grading a shape from dark to light will cause
the eye to move along the shape. The eye will
travel towards the point of maximum contrast,
following the graded shape.
Without tonal gradation, the eye will go directly
to the point of maximum contrast rather than
traveling along the graded shape. The image
becomes static.
