The Investigation Of Figure-Ground Relationships In Painting, Barbara H. Jones

All Master's Theses

The thesis problem involved the investigation of figure-ground relationships in painting. This study dealt with varying experiments in space, color relationships, the juxtaposition of form, and value relationships. The media used were those common to oil, watercolor and drawing.
