Characteristics of Vision in Children with CVI The visual system is a powerful and complex tool for understanding and perceiving the world. It has many aspects and dimensions that change throughout an individual’s lifetime. Therefore, it is unsurprising that there are many stages of vision at which perception can become impaired. Cortical (or cerebral) visual impairment (CVI) refers to any impairment or loss of vision brought about by damage to the brain or the central nervous system, rather than physical problems with the eye itself (ocular impairment); therefore, children and other individuals with CVI do not appear to have any cause for visual impairment when examined physically (Palmer, 2003).

From Incarnations of Burned Children and Binocular Vision I learned that a story does not have to be long at all for it to be meaningful. The use of one single event can create a lot of meaning in a story. The use of sentence length can also…

Theories of Color Vision The visual abilities of human beings are incredibly fascinating. We can view a large range of color from a small choice of wavelengths along the electromagnetic spectrum, 400nm-700nm. Our understanding of this perception of color comes from two major theories Tri-chromatic theory of color vision and opponent-process theory. Both theories have their merits and one actually grew out of the other. The first theory proposed was the tri-chromatic theory. The tri-chromatic…

His statement highlights a condition I call a myopic perspective. Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a condition in which a person can clearly see objects close-up while objects in the distance look blurry (“Myopia,” n.d.). A myopic perspective is a similar impairment limiting people’s psychological viewpoint or internal vision versus their physical…

The technique used in representing three-dimensional images onto a two-dimensional picture plane is what is known as Perspective drawing. More specifically, Linear Perspective is described as ‘a type of perspective used by artists in which the relative size, shape, and position of objects are determined by drawn or imagined lines converging at a point on the horizon.’ Certainly one of perspectives’ main uses in painting is in establishing the position from which the artist or spectator observes…

Shot #3: I zoomed in on tree bark at a local park to illustrate texture. Shot #4: I zoomed in on a building window arch to…
