Elements of Art
Element of Line
A line is defined as any mark on surface that makes up a shape or outline. There are various types of line, they can be thin, thick, or curvy. Lines can also be drawn in many different directions, such as vertical, horizontal, and diagonal.
Element of Colour
Colour consist of the main primary colours which are red, yellow, and blue. When the primary colours are blended, they create the secondary colours. The last set of colours are called intermediate colours because they are a combination of primary and secondary colours combed together. The combination of all of these shades of colour is the completion of the colour wheel.
Element of Texture
Texture refers to quality of any surface which can be either tactile or visual. This element can be physically real or implied by various uses of media. An example of texture can be the degree of either smoothness to roughness in objects.
Element of Space
Space refers to different forms of perspective and their respective proportions of specific objects and shapes in a frame. There are a number of sizes that create the perception of proportion that can either be real or imagined.
Element of Form
Is any 3-dimensional object that has some area, volume, and thickness. The element of form can be seen from various angles and the effect of shading can give the appearance of 3-dimensional figure
Element of Value
Is the intensity of light or dark in a design. It is a scale of a colour ranging from black to white and all of the tones that sit within the scale. Contrast is the creation of extreme difference between the values within a colour scale
Element of Shape
Shapes can be 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional figures. They can be grouped into two different categories, geometric and organic.
