1According to the Visual Arts Applications syllabus, which of the following is a formative element (μορφοπλαστικό στοιχείο) of visual language?
A.Texture
B.Balance
C.Emphasis
D.Rhythm
Explanation: The formative elements of visual language are point, line, tone, texture, volume and colour. Texture (υφή) is therefore one of the formative elements, the basic 'vocabulary' from which artworks are built.
2A line that follows and defines the outer edge of a shape or object in a drawing is called:
A.A gesture line
B.A contour line
C.A horizon line
D.A construction line
Explanation: A contour line traces the visible edges and boundaries of a form. Contour drawing trains careful observation because the eye and hand must move together along the edge of the subject.
3In the visual arts, tone (τόνος) refers to:
A.The purity of a colour
B.The surface quality of an object
C.The lightness or darkness of an area
D.The thickness of a line
Explanation: Tone, also called value, describes how light or dark an area appears, independent of its colour. Controlling tone allows the artist to model volume, create depth and establish focal contrast.
4An artist draws a tree trunk using dense clusters of short, rough marks so that the flat paper seems to feel rough. This is an example of:
A.Actual texture
B.Implied (visual) texture
C.Impasto
D.Collage
Explanation: Implied or visual texture is an illusion: the surface of the paper stays smooth, but the drawn marks make the viewer 'read' roughness. It is created entirely through line, tone and pattern.
5What distinguishes volume (όγκος) from shape as a formative element?
A.Volume is two-dimensional while shape is three-dimensional
B.Volume is three-dimensional, having height, width and depth, while shape is flat
C.Volume only exists in sculpture, never in drawing
D.Volume refers only to the size of an artwork
Explanation: Volume occupies three dimensions — height, width and depth — as in a cube, sphere or human figure. On flat paper, volume is suggested through tone, shading and perspective so a drawn circle reads as a sphere.
6Which statement best describes the point (σημείο) as a formative element?
A.It is the simplest element and can act as a focal accent that attracts the eye
B.It cannot exist on its own in a composition
C.It is always invisible to the viewer
D.It only functions as the start of a line in geometry, never in art
Explanation: The point is the most basic formative element. Even a single small point on an empty surface creates a centre of attention, and clusters of points can build line, tone and texture, as in stippling.
7In a composition, a group of strong vertical lines most typically suggests:
A.Calm and restfulness
B.Rapid falling motion
C.Stability, height and dignity
D.Chaos and disorder
Explanation: Vertical lines echo standing figures, columns and trees, so they convey stability, aspiration and grandeur — one reason they dominate temples, cathedrals and formal portraits. Line direction is a powerful expressive tool.
8An artist wants to make a poster feel energetic and full of movement. Which use of line will most directly achieve this?
A.Repeated horizontal lines
B.Strong diagonal lines
C.A single straight vertical line
D.A perfect square border
Explanation: Diagonal lines imply instability and action because the eye reads them as forces in motion, like a runner leaning forward. They are the most direct linear device for dynamism and tension.
9In pencil drawing, tone is built up using sets of parallel lines placed close together. When a second set of lines crosses the first at an angle, the technique is called:
A.Stippling
B.Blending
C.Cross-hatching
D.Scumbling
Explanation: Cross-hatching layers intersecting sets of parallel lines; the more layers and the closer the spacing, the darker the resulting tone. It lets the artist model form while keeping a lively linear surface.
10In applied visual work, chiaroscuro primarily refers to:
A.A printing registration mark used on every sheet
B.The strong modelling of form through contrasted light and shade
C.A colour-wheel arrangement of complementary hues only
D.The exclusive use of geometric perspective grids
Explanation: Chiaroscuro (from Italian for light-dark) is the deliberate contrast of illuminated and shadowed areas to model three-dimensional form on a two-dimensional surface. It is a core visual-language skill assessed in applied arts portfolios and written analysis.
