Visual hierarchy refers to the arrangement or presentation of elements in a way that implies importance.
 In other words, visual hierarchy influences the order in which the human eye perceives what it sees.
 This order is created by the visual contrast between forms in a field of perception.
 Objects with highest contrast to their surroundings are recognized first by the human mind.
 The term visual hierarchy is used most frequently in the discourse of the visual arts fields, notably so within the field of graphic design.
Jon Schueler (September 12, 1916 – August 5, 1992), was an American painter known for his large-scale, abstract compositions which evoke nature.
 Recognized first as a second-generation Abstract Expressionist he lived in New York City and in Mallaig, Scotland, inspired by the dramatic skies over the Sound of Sleat.
 His work is included in international collections such as the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (Edinburgh), Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), and the National Gallery of Australia (Canberra).
The Ratonero Bodeguero Andaluz ("Andalusian wine-cellar rat-hunting dog") is a Spanish breed of dog of the terrier type.
 Its name reflects its main occupation: hunting rats and mice hidden between barrels in the wineries of Andalusia in Spain.
 It was recognised as an indigenous Spanish breed in 2000 by the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture and by the Spanish Kennel Club, the" Real Sociedad Canina de España".
The Lacy Dog or Blue Lacy Dog is a breed of working dog that originated in Texas in the mid-19th century.
 The Lacy was first recognized in 2001 by the Texas Senate.
 In Senate Resolution No. 436, the 77th Legislature honored the Lacy as "a true Texas breed".
 In June 2005, Governor Rick Perry signed the legislation adopting the Blue Lacy as "the official State Dog Breed of Texas".
 As expected, the vast majority of Lacy dogs are found in Texas.
 However, as the breed becomes more well recognized, there are breeding populations being established across the United States, Canada, and most recently in Europe.
The Smaland Hound ("Swedish": Smålandsstövare) is a breed of dog that originated in Sweden in the 16th century.
 Thought to be the oldest scent hound breed native to Sweden, it was first recognized by the Swedish Kennel Club in 1921.
 They are the smallest of the Swedish hound breeds, and have black and tan markings similar to the Rottweiler.
 Internationally, it is recognized by a number of kennel clubs and registries including the Fédération Cynologique Internationale and United Kennel Club.
 It is considered rare, even in its native Sweden where only around sixty puppies are registered each year.
The Swedish Vallhund, also known as the "Västgötaspets" and Swedish cow dog, is a breed of dog native to Sweden.
 The breed's name, "Vallhund", when translated into English, means herding dog, as the Swedish Vallhund was originally bred as a drover and herder of cows over 1,000 years ago.
 In 1942, the dog came close to extinction, but careful breeding and publicity by Swedish national Bjorn von Rosen and K. G. Zettersten managed to revive the breed in popularity and save it from its likely end.
 In 1943, the Swedish Kennel Club recognized the Swedish Vallhund as a breed, and officially categorized the Swedish Vallhund as "the Västgötaspets" for Västergötland, the province in which their revival took place.
 Since then, the breed has been recognized by, and bred in, over ten countries and has gained some popularity.
The Welsh Corgi ( , Welsh for "dwarf dog"; plural "corgis" or occasionally the etymologically consistent "corgwn" ( )) is a small type of herding dog that originated in Wales.
 Two separate breeds are recognized: the Pembroke Welsh Corgi and the Cardigan Welsh Corgi.
 Historically, the Pembroke has been attributed to the influx of dogs alongside Flemish weavers from around the 10th century, while the Cardigan is attributed to the dogs brought with Norse settlers, in particular a common ancestor of the Swedish Vallhund.
 A certain degree of interbreeding between the two types has been suggested to explain the similarities between the two.
The First Nations (French: "Premières Nations" ) are the predominant Aboriginal peoples of Canada south of the Arctic.
 Those in the Arctic area are distinct and known as Inuit.
 The Métis, another distinct ethnicity, developed after European contact and relations primarily between First Nations people and Europeans.
 There are currently 634 recognized First Nations governments or bands spread across Canada, roughly half of which are in the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia.
Beefmaster is a breed of beef cattle that was developed in the early 1930s by Tom Lasater (the breed founder), after his father Ed c. Lasater created the breed, from a crossing of Hereford cows and Shorthorn cows with Brahman bulls.
 The exact mixture of the foundation cattle is unknown, but is thought to be about 25% Hereford, 25% Shorthorn and 50% Brahman.
 It was first recognized by the USDA as a new breed in 1954.
 The original intention was to produce cattle that could produce economically in the difficult environment of South Texas.
 The cattle were selected by using the Six Essentials – weight, conformation, milking ability, fertility, hardiness and disposition.
 Though there are no standards for color, most are red to light red, with white mottled spots.
 Over the past decade black Beefmaster have become very popular among herd managers using the breed in their heterosis programs for hybrid vigor.
 These cattle are a versatile, multipurpose breed, meaning that they can be used for milk as well as beef.
The Odawa (also Ottawa or Odaawaa ), said to mean "traders", are an Indigenous American ethic group who primarily inhabit land in the northern United States and southern Canada.
 They have long had territory that crosses the current border between the two countries, and they are federally recognized as Native American tribes in the United States and have numerous recognized First Nations bands in Canada.
 They are one of the Anishinaabeg, related to but distinct from the Ojibwe and Potawatomi peoples.
