30. Figure / Ground = Law of Closure & Law of Similarity Law of Closure The mind “fills in the blanks”in order to complete a regular figure . Law of Similarity The mind groups similar* elements into collective entities. *form, color, size, or brightness for example Who is the AntiSemite? Paanat Ernest Pignon Ernest

Variety Contrasting color, pattern and texture create visual interest X Law of Similarity The mind groups similar*elements into collective entities. *similar in color, form, or brightness for example Law of Similarity - disrupted La Musique Henri Matisse Law of Common Fate Elements with the same moving direction are perceived as a collective or unit Law of Continuity The mind continues visual, auditory, and kinetic patterns.
