+ | [{{ paag_area.png|a) implied area (white)}}] An **area** is a collection of a finite amount of pixels, all connected to each other but perceptually separated from their surrounding pixels. | ||
+ | Areas are two dimensional by definition but can be wrapped across the surfaces of three dimensional objects. | ||
