How can a large value difference create a focal point?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A distinctly light or dark area attracts attention
Value refers to the lightness or darkness of a colour or area. Placing a very light area next to a very dark one creates strong value contrast, so that area is noticed first and can become the focal point. A change in paper size or the disappearance of hue is not an effect of value contrast. Exam tip: link value contrast with focal point and emphasis.
