  • Abstract
    The relationship of shape and color, which are two of the parts of a composition, and their relation to the comprehension of written language are discussed. A composition is described as a gestalt that has shape and color within a geometric construct, affecting comprehension and meaning. Therefore, what is seen can be modified by changes in shape and color within a geometric construct modifying comprehension and meaning. Geometric constructs, shape concepts, and color percepts and their implementation in a composition are considered
