2018 Drawing I – Elements of Art PDF Outline Visual components: colour, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value. Line: An element of art
defined by a point moving in space. Line may be two-or three-dimensional, descriptive, implied, or abstract. Shape: An element of art that is two-dimensional, flat, or limited to height and width; encloses 2D area. Form: An element of art that is three-dimensional and encloses volume; includes
height, width AND depth (as in a cube, a sphere, a pyramid, or a cylinder). Form may also be free flowing (water, fire). Value: The lightness or darkness of tones or colours. White is the lightest value; black is the darkest. The value halfway between these extremes is called middle grey. Space: An element of art by which positive and negative areas are defined or an implied depth. Texture: An element of art that refers to the way things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched. (and in another class… ) Colour: An element of art made up of three properties: hue, value, and intensity.

Line
Look again at Figure 1-2. How many different lines can you find? In directions do these lines go?
Like shapes, forms have length and width. Forms also have a third dimension, depth. Form is an element of art that
refers to an object with three dimensions. With forms found in works of art, such as sculpture and architecture, you can actually experience the three dimensions by walking around or into the works. What element of art by which positive and negative areas are defined or a sense of depth is achieved in a work of art?Space is the element of art through which both positive and negative areas are defined or a sense of depth is achieved in a work of art.
What element of art is defined as a point moving in space where its dimensional implied or abstract?Line- Line is defined as a point moving in space where its length is greater than its width. Lines can be two or three dimensional, implied or abstract.
What are the elements of arts?The 7 Elements of Art. Shape.. Space.. Texture.. Value.. Color.. What are the four elements of art?The goal of this unit is to introduce students to the basic elements of art (color, line, shape, form, and texture) and to show students how artists use these elements in different ways in their work.
