General

Stippled

Multiple choice. Stippling is an intentional series of dots or flicks that produces a mottled effect. This may be used in either lines or patterned areas. Crude or sloppy craftsmanship that produces ragged lines or edges should not be characterized as stippled. [New window] Examples for General.Stippled

Lines
One or more lines is stippled.
Interior
There is a solid outline around a figure with a stippled interior.
Area
An area is stippled without an outline.
Light
About ten percent or less of the area or line is pecked or painted.
Dense
About half or more of the area or line is pecked or painted.


Right word? The idea is to add to General and remove stippling from several other classes -- zoo., geo...


Exotic

Multiple choice. The element has one or more strange or unusual characteristics that make the element surrealistic. Incomplete elements that are legless or armless, or two, three, or five-legged creatures are not exotic.

Multiple Legs
The element is an anthropomorphic or zoomorphic, but has extra sets of paired arms or legs.
Appendage
The element has an attached appendage of nearly equal prominence, for example, a zoomorphic with a tail that become a large geometric spiral.


New, an attempt to add flags to elements that defy description.


Rotated

Single choice. An element that would normally have an up direction is at odds with the present facing of the panel, and thus appears to be rotated in a direction not intended by the artist. A life form intentionally drawn upside down to indicate death or falling is not rotated.

45 Right
The element is rotated 45 degrees to the right.
90 Right
The element is rotated 90 degrees to the right.
135 Right
The element is rotated 135 degrees to the right.
Inverted
The element is upside down.
45 Left
The element is rotated 45 degrees to the left.
90 Left
The element is rotated 90 degrees to the left.
135 Left
The element is rotated 135 degrees to the left.
