By: Mindy Wong Elements and Principles of Art Elements of Art 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. 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). Value: The lightness or darkness of tones or colors. White is the lightest value; black is the darkest. The value halfway between these extremes is called middle gray. Space: An element of art by which positive and negative areas are defined or a sense of depth achieved in a work of art . Color: An element of art made up of three properties: hue, value, and intensity. • Hue: name of color. Texture An element of art that refers to the way things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched. 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. Texture: An element of art that refers to the way things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched. (The visual components of color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value) Principles of Art Balance: A way of combining elements to add a feeling of equilibrium or stability to a work of art. Major types are symmetrical and asymmetrical. Emphasis (contrast): A way of combining elements to stress the differences between those elements. Proportion: A principle of design that refers to the relationship of certain elements to the whole and to each other. Gradation: A way of combining elements by using a series of gradual changes in those elements. (large shapes to small shapes, dark hue to light hue, etc) Harmony A way of combining similar elements in an artwork to accent their similarities (achieved through use of repetitions and subtle gradual changes) Variety: A principle of design concerned with diversity or contrast. Variety is achieved by using different shapes, sizes, and/or colors in a work of art. Movement: A principle of design used to create the look and feeling of action and to guide the viewer’s eye throughout the work of art. (Balance, emphasis, movement, proportion, rhythm, unity, and variety; the means an artist uses to organize elements within a work of art. Rhythm A principle of design that indicates movement, created by the careful placement of repeated elements in a work of art to cause a visual tempo or beat.) Elements and Principles of Art in NATURE Elements and Principles of Art in the World. Review. Remember All of the Elements and Principles of design work together to create a piece of Artwork. The combination of these is called a composition. The End. 15 Essentials for Every Art FormWhat if you had the keys to the artistic kingdom? With each of these essentials for making art, that is exactly what you have. Understanding and applying the building blocks of art (or the elements and principles of art, as they are often called) is what takes an artist from beginner to master. In order to understand, deftly critique, and practice your chosen art form, you need to know the key concepts that it is built upon. Familiarity with elements of art (like color and line) and principles of art (proportion, rhythm, and contrast, among others) is what gives artists that fluency. You can build on these elements and principles with a glossary of art terms to describe art. With your knowledge of these, you will always be able to find the joy and excitement that can surround art…and for art lovers, there is nothing more appealing than that.

You use them individually and in combination for any art making endeavor. For the visual arts, these are visual elements: color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value. 1: ColorA three-pronged element of art: hue, value, and intensity. Hue is the color itself. Value is the hue’s lightness or darkness and changes when white or black is added to it. Intensity is the aspect of brightness and purity of a color. High intensity colors are bold and bright. Low intensity colors are faint and duller.

In a lot of ways it is the heart of an art object — the form itself. It can enclose a volume and includes height, width, and depth. A cube, a sphere, a cylinder and a pyramid are all different forms. Forms can also be formless — abstracted and free-flowing. 3: LineMarks made on a surface are known as line. They start at a point and move along, creating space as they go. Lines can be two- or three-dimensional, describing form or the form itself, implied, or abstract. Creating a series of parallel lines to indicate form is a technique known as hatching. Crosshatching indicates more than one set of these lines laid overtop of each other at angles to model and indicate tone.

Usually a shape is enclosed. 5: SpaceSpace 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. 6: TextureTexture defines the way an art object or an element in a composition feels or looks as if it would feel if touched.

Grand Odalisque by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres 9 Principles of ArtIf the elements of art are your tools, the principles of art are how you put them to work. It is where the style of art manipulates its substance. Rhythm, harmony, balance, contrast, movement, proportion, and variety are the principles of art. 1: RhythmThis principle of art describes the movement in or of an artwork. Rhythm is created by the variety and repetition of elements in a work of art that come together to create a visual tempo or beat. 2: HarmonyThis is achieved when the elements of an artwork come together in a unified way. Certain element are repeated yet still look and feel similar. Not monotony and not chaos, harmony is that perfectly honed combination of both. 3: BalanceArtists combine elements to add a feeling of equilibrium or stability to a work of art. Symmetry and asymmetry are manifestations of balance. Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh 4: ContrastAreas of contrast are where a viewer’s eye are usually first drawn. Artists will combine elements to stress the differences between those elements. In the following video, artist Nancy Reyner shows how to critique and improve a painting by adding contrast and introducing opposites. 5: MovementMovement is used to create the look and feeling of action in an artwork. It guides the viewer’s eye throughout a piece. A sense of movement can be varied lines, repetition of elements, and gestural mark-making among many more. This is the uniform repetition of an element of art or combination of elements. Anything can be turned into a pattern through repetition. Within the realm of the elements and principles of art, proportion is the relationship of elements in an artwork to the whole and to one another. The principle of art concerned with diversity or contrast is that of variety. Variety is brought about by using different colors, sizes and shapes in a work of art. It is the partner of unity. Artists seek the balance between the two. If this guide has been a refresher in the very best of ways, then you know you are ready for the next step of your art journey. Put the elements and principles of art into practice in your next artwork. Make it your best—and something you are proud of.
