Post-Test Review 6th Grade
ELEMENTS OF DESIGN are: • Line • Shape • Color • Value • Texture • Space • Form
LINE • A mark made on a surface that has length and direction.
SHAPE • A two-dimensional enclosed area, or object.
SHAPE GEOMETRIC ORGANIC
SHAPES • BLOCK LETTERS & NUMBERS ARE SHAPES. • CURSIVE LETTERS ARE LINES
COLOR • The quality of light reflected from an object, and not absorbed. • Isaac Newton discovered that white light (from the sun), when refracted through a prism, would break up into it’s separate colors (ROY G BIV).
COLOR WHEEL Colors are divided into groups or “schemes”. • Primary • Secondary • Tertiary/Intermediate • Complementary • Analogous • Warm /Cool
Red Blue Yellow PRIMARY COLORS CANNOT BE MADE FROM OTHER COLORS
Violet Green Orange Secondary colors can be created BY mixing primary colors.
Tertiary Colors A tertiary color is a color made by mixing one primary color with one secondary color.
Complementary Colors Complementary colors are colors that are opposite of each other on the color wheel, such as blue and orange, red and green, violet and yellow. Red - Green Blue Orange - Yellow - Violet
Analogous Colors Are next to each other on the color wheel.
VALUE • THE LIGHTNESS OR DARKNESS OF A COLOR.
VALUE TINTS: Color mixed with white SHADES: Color mixed with black
TEXTURE • The tactile quality of a surface. It can be actual or implied.
TEXTURE IMPLIED TEXTURE ACTUAL TEXTURE
SPACE • The illusion of depth & distance.
POSITIVE / NEGATIVE SPACE THE AIRPLANE IS NEGATIVE THE TREE IS POSITIVE
SPACE • The cut outs are negative and the left over dough is positive.
SPACE BACKGROUND- Colors get cooler & objects get blurrier MIDDLEGROUND- Objects get smaller FOREGROUND- Objects larger and warmer in color.
FORM • Three-dimensional shapes or objects. • Form can be implied or actual. • Value is used to create form in painting and drawing.
REALISM VS. ABSTRACT This one has shape This one has form
SCULPTURE An ARMATURE is: • The skeleton that supports the material by which the sculpture is made (i.e. clay, paper mache, etc.)
The Principles of Design • …are the rules by which we use the ELEMENTS. • The recipe or guidelines on how to use the elements of design.
The Principles are: • Balance • Contrast • Emphasis • Rhythm • Movement • Proportion • Unity • Pattern
BALANCE Balance is a feeling of equality or stability in a piece of artwork. There are three types: • Symmetrical • Asymmetrical • Radial
CONTRAST • … is achieved by using opposite elements in an artwork to create interest.
RHYTHM • Rhythm is created when similar elements repeat, creating a sense of movement. Repeating elements do NOT have to be exactly alike.
MOVEMENT • …is the way the human eye travels through an artwork in a particular direction.
UNITY • .. is when SIMILAR elements work together to create harmony (mood or theme).
EMPHASIS • … is the focal point in an artwork, or the most important part.
