The work below is by the Graffiti artist Banksy. The girl is holding an umbrella to keep out the rain but instead the umbrella is causing the rain.

The contrast in this is the different shades of black. The emphasis in this is the girl offering money. She might be poor so what I think he emphaisized about this is to give to the poor.
In the grtaffiti, Banksy has displayed, he uses contrast with the black paint up agiainst the white wall. In the picture i believe the parts that are emphasized are the umbrella, the girl, and the girl's hand reaching out.
Contrast is used in this painting by the white bricks, and the black painting. Empahsis is used in this painting by the size, shape, color, and the detail.
The crontrast is how he uses the different shades of black.
The emphasis is that the girl looks tried and looks like she wants to offer you something.
Banksy really used contrast with the different shades of black and grey. Banksy also used emphasis with the little girl holding the umbrella. She stands out the most in the picture.
Contrast is used in the painting by the different shades of black, grey, and white. Then emphasis is used by the girl being the main part of the painting.
The contrast is in the blacks of te painting, and the emphasis is the girl with her hand out, showing that she is felling for the rain.
the contrast in the picture is represented by the black agenst the white wall. it makes the black stant out more that anything.The emphasized part would most likely be the umbrella by the way it has the most black out of all the painting and how it streaks down the whole thing.
there is contrast in the light grey black and white in realley blends. also there is emphasis in the girls dress because that solid black is hard not to knowtist.
in this graffiti, i think that banksy emphasied how the rain is under the umbrella and not on the outside. the art pops out because of the color contrast, white on black.
Bansky puts emphasis on the girl because she is mostly blacked in and not just blacked outline.
This was my favorite piece of work, it really depicts how life can be. I passed by it every day when I was living in New Orleans.
