CONTENT :
The elements of art are the building blocks used by artists to create a work of art. Line is a mark with
greater length than width. ... Forms are three-dimensional shapes expressing length, width, and depth.
Balls, cylinders, boxes, and pyramids are forms. Space is the area between and around objects.
How do you describe elements of art?
Elements of art are stylistic features that are included within an art piece to help the artist communicate.
The seven most common elements include line, shape, texture, form, space, colour and value, with the
additions of mark making, and materiality.
Line
Lines are marks moving in a space between two points whereby a viewer can visualize the stroke
movement, direction, and intention based on how the line is oriented. Lines describe an outline, capable
of producing texture according to their length and curve. There are different types of lines artists may
use, including, actual, implied, vertical, horizontal, diagonal and contour lines, which all have different
functions. Lines are also situational elements, requiring the viewer to have knowledge of the physical
world in order to understand their flexibility, rigidity, synthetic nature, or life.
Shape
A shape is a two-dimensional design encased by lines to signify its height and width structure, and can
have different values of color used within it to make it appear three-dimensional. In animation, shapes
are used to give a character a distinct personality and features, with the animator manipulating the
shapes to provide new life. There are different types of shapes an artist can use and fall under either
geometrical, defined by mathematics, or organic shapes, created by an artist. Simplistic, geometrical
shapes include circles, triangles and squares, and provide a symbolic and synthetic feeling, whereas acute
angled shapes with sharp points are perceived as dangerous shapes. Rectilinear shapes are viewed as
dependable and more structurally sound, while curvilinear shapes are chaotic and adaptable.
Form
Form is a three-dimensional object with volume of height, width and depth. These objects include cubes,
spheres and cylinders.Form is often used when referring to physical works of art, like sculptures, as form
is connected most closely with those three-dimensional works.
Color
Color is an element consisting of hues, of which there are three properties: hue, chroma or intensity, and
value.Color is present when light strikes an object and it is reflected back into the eye, a reaction to a hue
arising in the optic nerve. The first of the properties is hue, which is the distinguishable color, like red,
blue or yellow. The next property is value, meaning the lightness or darkness of the hue. The last is
chroma or intensity, distinguishing between strong and weak colors. A visual representation of chromatic
scale is observable through the color wheel that uses the primary colors.
Space
Space refers to the perspective (distance between and around) and proportion (size) between shapes and
objects and how their relationship with the foreground or background is perceived. There are different
types of spaces an artist can achieve for different effect. Positive space refers to the areas of the work
with a subject, while negative space is the space without a subject. Open and closed space coincides with
three-dimensional art, like sculptures, where open spaces are empty, and closed spaces contain physical
sculptural elements.
Texture
Texture is used to describe the surface quality of the work, referencing
the types of lines the artist created.The surface quality can either be
tactile (real) or strictly visual (implied). Tactile surface quality is mainly
seen through three-dimensional works, like sculptures, as the viewer
can see and/or feel the different textures present, while visual surface
quality describes how the eye perceives the texture based on visual
cues.
Value
The scale between dark (black) and light (white) values.
Value refers to the degree of perceivable lightness of tones within an image.The element of value is
compatible with the term luminosity, and can be "measured in various units designating electromagnetic
radiation". The difference in values is often called contrast, and references the lightest (white) and
darkest (black) tones of a work of art, with an infinite number of grey variants in between. While it is
most relative to the greyscale, though, it is also exemplified within colored images.
