- 2. ELEMENTS OF ARTS The elements of art are the fundamental components used by artists when creating a work of art. These elements, often referred to as the building blocks of art, include line, shape, value, colour, space, texture, and form. Artists use all of these elements together help create the composition of an artwork, to express meaning and to create the impression of a scene or subject
- 4. LINE is oneof the most basic elements of art and it can be used to create many different effects. Lines can be straight, curved, angular or organic and they may be thick or thin. They can also denote direction, such as horizontal or diagonal. Lines can also be used to suggest movement, value, depth and texture within a piece of art.
- 5. LINE An artwork canbe created with just line alone, look at line art drawings, where artists use pens or pencils alongside the hatching or cross hatching techniques to create the impression of light and shadow in different subjects.
- 6. SHAPE Are two-dimensionalforms that are defined by an outline or border. They can be geometric such as squares, circles and triangles, or organic like free-form shapes. Artists use shapes to represent a subject, for example, drawing the shape of a leaf in a landscape piece.

- 8. VALUE is thelightness or darkness of a colour used in an artwork. Light and dark values create depth and perspective and also emphasise certain elements within a composition. Value is created by mixing black or white with a colour.
- 9. Chiaroscuro is thetechnique of using highly contrasting light and dark values in an artwork. Oil painters such as Caravaggio and Rembrandt used this technique in their oil paintings to create drama, atmosphere and focal points. Caravaggio: Saint Jerome Writing

- 11. COLOUR is animportant element of art which helps to bring life to an artwork. Colour is the way in which humans perceive wavelengths of light and is further categorized by hue, saturation and luminance.
- 12. SPACE Is thearea around, within and between shapes that creates a sense of depth within an artwork. Positive space is defined as the space in artworks occupied by subject or objects, while negative space is the area around and between the subjects.

- 14. TEXTURE refers tothe surface quality of an object or material that can be seen and felt. It can make a painting look more three- dimensional or realistic and it also helps to create a sense of depth, movement and rhythm.
- 15.
- 16. FORM is athree-dimensional object that has mass and volume. It occupies space and it can be viewed from any angle. Sculptures are considered to have three dimensional form, while subjects within a painting can have the appearance of form.

- 18. Principles of design The principles of design are the effects that can be created by arranging visual elements in such a way to create a successful composition. These include balance, contrast, emphasis, repetition, variety, proportion, scale, movement, pattern, rhythm and unity.
- 19. BALANCE Visual balanceis about ensuring your design is equally weighted on both sides of the central point. It’s like a seesaw —too much weight on either side and the whole thing becomes unbalanced.
- 20. EMPHASIS Emphasis isused to focus the viewer’s attention on a certain part of a composition. The effect is achieved by manipulating elements (like color, shape, and size) to make specific parts of a design stand out.
- 21. REPETITION repetition refersto when an element is repeated throughout a design. Repetition makes designs visually exciting and cohesive. It also creates a sense of consistency by using a repeating motif that the viewer comes to expect.
- 22. MOVEMENT it refersto the path a viewer’s eye takes when they look over a composition. It’s not just what you look at; it’s the way you look at it. Designers can guide this by using lines, edges, shapes, and colors to create focal points and encourage certain ways of seeing.
- 23. PROPORTION Proportion isthe relationship between two or more elements in a design, particularly the size and scale of them. Proportion can be used to make a composition appear more realistic or more stylized depending on the type of proportion used.
- 24. CONTRAST Contrast isproduced when two or more visual elements in a composition are different. It can be used to create specific effects, emphasize the significance of certain elements, and add visual appeal to your designs.
- 25. HIERARCHY Visual hierarchyis about organizing the value of the elements within your design. By ranking information from most important to least important, you make it easier for the viewer to digest your content.
- 26. Rhythm It’s aboutgiving your composition a feeling of action and movement.
- 27. PATTERN While repetitionoccurs when the same elements are repeated throughout a design, a pattern is composed of different components repeated in the same way.
- 28. VARIETY Variety isn’tjust the spice of life it’s the spice of design too. It’s integral not to revert to the same old elements within a design to make sure things are visually interesting for your viewers.
- 29. UNITY We've putunity last on this list for a reason it only occurs when all the various elements within a design coexist to form a holistic experience pleasing to the eye.
