1. Element of Lines
is a recognizable path created by a
point moving in space. It is one-dimensional
and can vary in thickness, direction, and
length.

1. Horizontal Lines
These are straight lines parallel to the
horizon that move from left to right.
2. Vertical Lines
- These lines are perpendicular to horizontal
lines. They never slant and are moving up and
down and suggest strength, balance, and
stability.

3. Diagonal Lines
-these lines are between a vertical
and horizontal line. Thy look either as
rising or falling to convey meanings or
implications.
4. Zigzag Lines
-are mixture of diagonal lines
forming angles and changing
directions. It means chaos, conflict,
and confusion as depicted by the
pictures of wars and anime characters.

5. Curved Lines
these lines are called curvilinear
which are organic and natural, adjusting to
direction regularly.
6. Actual and Implied Lines
Actual lines are intentionally shown
by artist in an artwork to give the
audience and interesting aspect of the
composition.
Implied lines aren't drawn, but they
are created with colors, shadows, shapes,
textures, and spaces between objects.
Their purpose is to guide the viewer's
eyes within the artwork and emphasize
certain elements.

Element of Colors
Physical Properties of
Colors
1. Hue
2. Value
3. Intensity or
Saturation

Kinds of Shape
4. Amorphous
Elements
of
Shapes
1. Geometric
2. Organic
3. Biomorphic

The Illusion of Space
Overlapping
Relative Size and
Linear Perspective
Atmospheric Perspective
Elements of Space

Positive and Negative Space
Positive space
- is a term used to refer to the areas of
interest and focus in a piece of artwork. Positive
space is often the subject of a work of art such as a
person, landscape, or object. Even in abstract art
work where there may not be a singular subject,
shapes and patterns can become positive space

Positive and Negative Space
Negative space
- is a term used in art to describe the space
surrounding a subject. Negative space, also called
white space, is typically empty and lacks details as to
simplify an image and keep the focus on the subject
(positive space).
What is positive and negative space used for?
• Distributing the weight of an image
• Establishing symmetry or rhythm
• Creating balance

The Element of Value(Light and Shadow)
Value
-the gradual change from light to dark and vice versa.
Monochromatic Value

The Element of Value(Light and Shadow)
Value
-the gradual change from light to dark and vice versa.
Achromatic Value

Chiaroscuro
the technique using light and
shadow in painting.

The Element of Texture
-how the surface of the material feels and looks
like.
-Texture is not only seen but also felt.

Types of Texture
Simulated
Texture Abstract
Texture
Actual
Texture
Invented
Texture

Elements of Time and Motion
Artists have collaborated to bring the viewer the concept of
movement and time on their artworks.
Actual Movement
- artist incorporates actual movement in art
known as kinetic art.
Implied Movement
- the use of lines to create the perception
of movement or passing time in 2D piece.

Rule of Thirds
- The process of dividing an image into
thirds, using two horizontal and two
vertical lines. The imaginary grid yields
nine parts with four intersection points.

Principles of Art
- refers to the visual
strategies used by the artists, in
conjunction with the visual
elements of arts for expressive
purposes.
1. Balance
- symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial

a. Symmetrical
- also known as formal
balance
-
b. Asymmetrical
- also known as informal balance
c. Radial Symmetry
- balance where all elements out radiate
out from a center point in a circular fashion.

2. Harmony
can be described as sameness,
the belonging of one thing with
another.
3. Proportion
the size relationship of forms
and shapes.
4. Dominance/ Emphasis
- when the artist creates an area of the
composition that is visually dominant and commands
the viewer’s attention.

5. Variety
a way of combining visual
elements to achieve intricate and
complex relationships.
6. Movement
the result of using the elements
of art such that they move the viewer’s
eyes around and within the image.
7. Rhythm
the continuance, a flow of fleeting of
movement by the repetition of regulated visual
formation.

For your activity
• You will create a Line art by applying the basic elements of art (focused on Lines)
• Materials – ½ Crosswise Oslo Paper, Pen/Dark Pencil, Ruler
Optional : Eraser, Marker and Sharpener
• Activity should be done inside the classroom (30 to 40 minutes)
• Put your name, the date submitted, your class schedule and offering number and a
creative title on the back of your art work (Upper right corner)
