Point, Line, and Plane

The reading from our book, Graphic Design: The New Basis, we had to read the chapter called Point, Line, and Plane. From this chapter, I learned that a point can be very insignificant in a piece of work or it can be the whole focal point. A series of points creates texture or different shading in a visual. A line is an infinite series of points. It can either connect two points or show what an object is moving towards. Planes are not just the things that fly in the sky. They are flat surfaces that have a height and width. Planes are basically shaped that have been formed by the closing of a series of lines. This chapter showed that a point in necessary to create a line and a line is necessary to create a plane. This chapter also talked about space and volume and how this creates depth perception.
