ELEMENTS OF DESIGN are:
• Line
• Shape
• Color
• Value
• Texture
• Space
• Form
LINE
• A mark made on a surface that
has length and direction.
LINE
SHAPE
• A two-dimensional enclosed
area, or object.
SHAPE
GEOMETRIC
ORGANIC
SHAPES
• BLOCK
LETTERS &
NUMBERS ARE
SHAPES.
• CURSIVE
LETTERS ARE
LINES
COLOR
• The quality of light
reflected from an
object, and not
absorbed.
• Isaac Newton
discovered that white
light (from the sun),
when refracted
through a prism,
would break up into
it’s separate colors
(ROY G BIV).
COLOR WHEEL
Colors are divided into
groups or “schemes”.
• Primary
• Secondary
• Tertiary/Intermediate
• Complementary
• Analogous
• Warm /Cool
PRIMARY COLORS CANNOT BE MADE
FROM OTHER COLORS
Secondary colors can be created BY
mixing primary colors.
Tertiary Colors
A tertiary color
is a color made
by mixing one
primary color
with one
secondary color.
Complementary colors are colors that are
opposite of each other on the color wheel, such
as blue and orange, red and green, violet and
yellow.
-
-
Analogous Colors
Are next to each other on the color
wheel.
VALUE
• THE LIGHTNESS OR DARKNESS OF
A COLOR.
VALUE
TINTS: Color mixed with white
SHADES: Color mixed with black
TEXTURE
• The tactile quality of a surface.
It can be actual or implied.
TEXTURE
ACTUAL TEXTURE
IMPLIED TEXTURE
SPACE
• The illusion of depth & distance.
POSITIVE / NEGATIVE SPACE
THE AIRPLANE IS
NEGATIVE
THE TREE IS POSITIVE
SPACE
• The cut outs
are negative
and the left
over dough is
positive.
SPACE
BACKGROUND- Colors get
cooler & objects get
blurrier
MIDDLEGROUNDObjects get smaller
FOREGROUND- Objects
larger and warmer in
color.
ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE
FORM
• Three-dimensional shapes or objects.
• Form can be implied or actual.
• Value is used to create form in painting and
drawing.
CONTOUR LINE VS. FORM
REALISM VS. ABSTRACT
This one has form
This one has shape
SCULPTURE
An ARMATURE is:
• The skeleton that
supports the
material by which
the sculpture is
made (i.e. clay,
paper mache, etc.)
The Principles of Design
• …are the rules by which we use
the ELEMENTS.
• The recipe or guidelines on how
to use the elements of design.
The Principles are:
• Balance
• Contrast
• Emphasis
• Rhythm
• Movement
• Proportion
• Unity
• Pattern
BALANCE
Balance is a feeling of equality
or stability in a piece of
artwork. There are three types:
1.Symmetrical
2.Asymmetrical
3.Radial
SYMMETRICAL
SYMMETRICAL & RADIAL
ASYMMETRICAL
CONTRAST
• … is achieved by using
opposite elements in an
artwork to create interest.
RHYTHM
• Rhythm is created when similar
elements repeat, creating a sense
of movement. Repeating
elements do NOT have to be
exactly alike.
THIS CAN ALSO BE UNITY!
MOVEMENT
• …is the way the human eye
travels through an artwork in a
particular direction.
MOVEMENT
UNITY
• .. is when SIMILAR elements
work together to create
harmony (mood or theme).
EMPHASIS
• … is the focal point in an
artwork, or the most
important part.
Emphasis
PROPORTION
• … is the comparative relationship of one
part to another, such as the size, amounts,
or number of elements in an artwork.
PROPORTION
PATTERN
• Created when identical elements
repeat sequentially.
PATTERN
