THE ELEMENTS OF ART

It is an art that uses language, vocabulary, and grammar (an art that is visible)

Visual Art

This is the most basic of the elements

Line

This art is represented by elements

Vocabulary

This art is represented by composition

Grammar

In this field, it is a line that refers to the moving point that travels from position A to B and has length but no width.

Mathematics

In this field, line always has width because it is drawn using concrete materials like a pencil, chalk, or pen, these are called actual lines.

Art

What are the 2 classification of lines?

Actual and Implied Line

This line is clearly and visibly expressed

Actual Line

This line is a dotted or dash lines. Our mind fills the gap between the separated segments and we do not perceive the line as separate but as continuous (eye’s connects other elements of an artwork to create an art)

Implied Line

What are the three kinds of straight line?

Vertical, Horizontal, and Diagonal

This kind of line is associated with rest or calm

Horizontal

This kind of line means exaltation or aspiration for action

Vertical

This kind of line expresses progression

Diagonal

What are the two kinds of line?

Straight Lines and Curve Lines

This are also known as implied lines. It create an illusion of depth and focuses on the vanishing point

Perspective Line

This line is a reminiscent of violence

Crooked or Jagged

This line alludes to softness, grace, etc..

Curve

This element is known as the property of light

Color

What are the 3 properties of color?

Hue, Saturation, and Brightness

This property of color refers to a gradation or variety of color

Hue

This property of color refers to purity of color

Saturation

This property of color refers to shade (darkness) or tine (brightness) of a color

Brightness

This refers to colors that look aesthetically when combined

Color Harmony

This is an art and science of using color

Color Theory

This element is a two dimensional work (height and width)

Shape

What are the four (4) types of shapes?

Geometric, Abstract, Organic, and Nonrepresentational

This type of shape refers to straight lines or curved ones that progress evenly (e.g., squares, rectangles, triangles, circles)

Geometric Shapes

This type of shape refers to uneven curves, they are sometimes called naturalistic or biomorphic (e.g., clouds, treetop)

Organic Shapes

This type of shape refers to representational shapes that have been simplified. Even when they have been reduced to their basic underlying forms, distorted or exaggerated, the original sources of the shapes will remain recognizable.

Abstract Shapes

This type of shape does not meant to refer to anything we can see in the real world. Sometimes called nonobjective or totally abstract. These shapes can also have either organic (soft-edged) or geometric (hard edged) qualities

Nonrepresentational Shapes

This element is a three-dimensional work (height, width, depth)

Form

What are the 2 types of form?

Real Form and Stimulated/Virtual Form

This example of this form is a sculptures that takes up three dimensional space

Real Form

This form is illusionistic art. Artists use light and shadow effects to create the illusion of three-dimensional form.

Stimulated/Visual Form

This element is Field of action on which all artists do battle. An area in which an art work is organized and allows it to be perceived as a whole. It encompasses the area within, outside, and around the work of art

Space

What are the 3 types of space?

Planar Space, Three-dimensional Space, and Flexible Space

This type of shape can be found on a flat picture plane

Planar Space

This type of shape is occupied by an artwork with volume

Three-dimensional Space

This type of shape can be used in performance, installation, and multimedia art

Flexible Space

The space occupied by an object, the subject in planar work or of a body in motion

Positive Space

the void between the subject and around the subject

Negative Space

This element refers to the perception of touch which distinguishes a wide variety of surface qualities.

Texture

What are the 7 elements of Art?

Texture, Line, Color, Shape, Form, Value, and Space

This pertains to the lightness and darkness of a line

Tone

A device used to understand the relationship among the colors

Color Wheel

This can also be real, as in sculptures which are three-dimensional

Volume

Putting together all the elements of art is called ________

It come from the Latin word ____ meaning with; and

_____ meaning to put

Composition
