  1. Line Color Texture Value Shape Form Space Balance Movement Emphasis Pattern (repetition) Unity (compare) Variety (contrast) Proportion Rhythm Elements and Principles of Art

  2. Line a continuous mark, made by a moving point, on a surface, or in space A. Actual - Fully drawn lines or Implied - Lines that are ‘hinted’ at B. Direction Vertical – Up and down Horizontal – Side to side, like the horizon Diagonal – Any line that is not vertical or horizontal. C. Descriptive Adjectives and Adverbs

  3. Diego Rivera, The Flower Carrier, 1935, 48x48 in. Note lines implied by directional gazes

  4. Color produced when light, striking an object, is reflected back to the eye • Hue - the name we give to a color, including all colors on the color spectrum and black and white B. Intensity - the strength and vividness of the color.

  5. PRIMARY Colors & SECONDARY colors RED PURPLE YELLOW GREEN BLUE ORANGE

  6. Texture Real or Actual texture- the way something actually feels Implied texture- the way something appears to feel visually

  7. Value The lightness or darkness of a color. The terms shade and tint are in reference to value changes in colors A. Tint - when white is added to a pure hue B. Shade - when black is added to a pure hue C. Tone – when white AND black are added to a color

  8. Shape A. 2 dimensional space that is contained within an area B. Organic- created by using irregular lines –might be found in nature.

  9. C.Geometric shape-has a strict pattern – 2D enclosed area created by exact mathematical law.

  10. Form A. A 3D space B. Organic – An irregular 3-dimensional enclosed area, like that which might be found in nature. C. Geometric– 3D enclosed area that has a strict pattern

  11. Space A. The appearance of depth in art B. Actual – the real distance between or around areas or components within of a piece. C. Implied - the appearance of space or depth within a work of art. D. Positive – Solid areas or objects E. Negative – ‘air’ around solid objects, space where other things are not present

  12. SpaceActual or implied?

  13. Positive or negative?

  14. Principles of Design The tools to make art or what we use to organize the Elements of Art

  15. Balance the ways in which the elements (lines, shapes, etc.) of a piece are arranged to create a feeling of stability in a work of art Symmetry - elements are given equal "weight" from an imaginary line in the middle of a piece. Near symmetry- same weight…not the same stuff. Asymmetry- elements are placed unevenly in a piece, but work together to produce harmony overall.

  16. Movement Using the elements to direct the viewer’s eye along a path and to show movement or direction. Actual – an object that has true motion. Implied - the suggestion of motion in a design. Jacques Henri Lartigue - Grand Prix de Circuit de la Seine, June 26th 1912. Muyako Fujino, Day of the Sea Sail.

  17. Rhythm, Rhythm,Rhythm,Rhythm A visual beat or a regular repetition of the elements of art to create the look and feel of movement.

  18. Variety(Contrast) • Differences between how an element of art is used OR using opposing qualities next to eachother. High contrast= VERY different Low contrast= a little different Jona Cerwinski, Sharpie Lamborghini, 2007. Contrast black and white. Jacob Lawrence, Migration Series #11, 1940-1. Complimentary Colors green and red Contrast.

  19. Emphasis What stands out in the art and what draws the viewer’s attention in. Nick Brandt, Windswept Lion, Serengeti, 2002. Rembrandt van Rijn, The Night Watch, 1642. Famous for his use of light and value.

  20. Pattern(Repetition) the repetition of an element (or elements) in a work

  21. Unity(Compare) • How the elements in an artwork or works come together to create a pleasing image. or how they go together.

  22. Proportion The size relationship between two or more objects.
