Art Elements/Principles of Design
Line:A line is an identifiable path of a point moving in space. It can vary in width, direction and length.
Shape: Shapes can be in the form of squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, and ovals.
Color: When light is reflected off an object, color is what the eye sees. The primary colors are red, yellow and blue. The secondary colors are orange, purple and green.
Value: Shadows, darkness, contrasts and light are all values in artwork.
Texture:Texture creates the feeling of an object.
Volume/ Form: An element of art, such as you would see in a sculpture that has three dimensions.
Design Principles:
Balance: An art and design principle concerned with the arrangement of one or more elements in a work of art so that they appear symmetrical (even) or asymmetrical (uneven) in design and proportion.
Harmony: A pleasing combination of elements in a whole.
Contrast: Contrast is created by using opposites near or beside one another, such as a light object next to a dark object or a rough texture next to a smooth texture.
Movement: The act of assuming a certain position.
Rhythm:When the regular repetition of particular forms or elements occurs in a work of art, that work is said to have rhythm. It suggests motion.
