Introduction

Elements are the basic art components

Five general elements exist: Line, Shape/Form, Space,

Texture, and Color Elements work together to

create art principles of: Unity, Pattern,

Movement/Rhythm, Balance, Emphasis, Contrast, and Proportion

Let’s examine each element individually

LINE Characterized by length and direction. Creates contours and form.

SHAPE / FORM

Shape is a simple closed contour (circle, square, triangle).

Form adds the 3rd dimension to shape.

SPACE Adds depth and dimension. Can be negative or positive.

TEXTURE Explains the surface appearance and feel.

COLOR Is the response to differing wavelengths of radiation within the visible spectrum.

LINE Represents order and function Gives eyes explicit directions where to look Consists of one continuous stroke of a marking

implement Can be short, long, thick, narrow

Types: actual, implied, vertical, horizontal, diagonal, contour

Some lines are decorative Examine the lines on the next slide

The visual or tactile appearance of a surface

Texture can be actual or simulated Includes smooth, rough, soft, warm,

grainy, shiny, and woven “Left-Click” to see and identify each

COLOR A component of light and represents emotion

Red = danger or passion Blue = peacefulness, calmness Yellow = warmth, the sun

Depicts atmospheric wavelengths Allows items to stand out from background Properties: value, intensity, classification Color wheel offers numerous combinations

Color Wheel

Primary colors are the “truest” huesCannot be ‘mixed’ from other colorsThey are: Red, Yellow, and Blue

Page 15: Elements of A R T By: “Glo” Nelson-Green. Objectives After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Define each of the elements of art  Explain.

Color Wheel Secondary colors result from mixing two

primary colorsThey are: Orange, Green, Violet (purple)

Page 16: Elements of A R T By: “Glo” Nelson-Green. Objectives After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Define each of the elements of art  Explain.

Color Wheel There are six tertiary (intermediary) colors Mixture of one primary and one secondary

Red-Orange, Yellow-Orange, Yellow-Green, Blue-Green, Blue-Violet, and Red-Violet

Color Wheel

Here is the completed color wheel:

Colors

Neutrals are “accent” hues, not on color wheel

They include: beige, white (void of color), black, and grays

COLOR Color schemes are everywhere – in nature, your

home, and works of art! Common schemes are:

COMPLIMENTARY (opposite ends of color wheel)

TRIADIC (three colors equally separated on wheel)

ANALOGOUS (three adjacent colors)

MONOCHROMATIC (varying values of one color)
