STANDARD 4:The Elements of Art The basic components or tools of visual communication. What we use to “make” art.
Line Shape Form Value Texture Space Color What are the Elements of Art?
Standard 4The Elements of Art • Standard 4.1: I can define, recognize and use LINES. • Standard 4.2: I can define, recognize and use SHAPES. • Standard 4.3: I can define, recognize and use FORMS.
Standard 4The Elements of Art • Standard 4.4: I can define, recognize and use VALUE. • Standard 4.5: I can define, recognize and use TEXTURE. • Standard 4.6: I can define, recognize and use SPACE. • Standard 4.7: I can define, recognize and use COLOR.
Standard 4.1Line Element of Art which refers to the mark(s) made on a surface by a moving point.
Line… • There are three basics “types” of LINE. • 1: Straight Line: A line running directly between two points with no curves or turns.
Line… • 2: Curved or Curvy: A line that changes direction gradually.
Line… • 3: Zig-Zag: A line that makes sudden or sharp changes in direction.
Line… In addition to the three basic types of line, we can also categorize lines by what direction they are running… Horizontal Vertical Diagonal
Line… There is one last category called IMPLIED LINES. This is because these lines are made up of smaller line segments that our brain interprets as one long line. ……………………………………………………………………………… Dotted/ Dashed
There are also different properties or characteristics of line… Length Width And these characteristics are RELATIVE.
Standard 4.2 Shape Element of Art that refers to an enclosed area of two-dimensional space defined by its external edge. Has HEIGHT and WIDTH 2 basic types Organic Geometric
Geometric Shapes: Mechanical. Have a mathematical basis for their configuration. Follow an ordered set of rules. square rectangle pentagon circle triangle
Organic Shapes that occur in nature. Free form.
Standard 4.3 FORM • The Element of Art that refers to the three dimensional quality of art. • Has Height Width and Depth • Encloses Volume Depth Height Width
Just like shape, there are two types of form… • Geometric- Forms that are mechanical, mathematical • Organic- Forms that occur in nature; Free forms,
What forms correspond with these shapes? • What is the 3-dimensional form of the: • CIRCLE • SQUARE • TRIANGLE If I lay my hand flat on a piece of paper and draw around it, I have created a shape. What is that shapes corresponding form?
The Thinker Rodin
Implied Form Creating the illusion of form when we are working on a flat surface.
Implied Form What is one of the primary methods we use to create the illusion of form?
Standard 4.4VALUE Element of Art that refers to the degree and qualities of lightness or darkness
Value… • Each color has a corresponding value…
TEXTURE The Element of Art that refers to the perceived surface quality or “feel” of an object. Its ROUGHNESS, SMOOTHNESS, SOFTNESS, etc. Standard 4.5
Actual Texture The actual physical texture of a surface. What it would feel like when you touch it.
Implied or Visual Texture How a surface looks like it feels. What you think a surface would feel like if you could touch it. The Conversion of Saint Paul Caravaggio, 1601, Oil on Canvas
SpaceStandard 4.6 • Refers to the area around, between, above, below or within objects or forms in a piece of artwork. • 2 types • Positive and Negative
Positive Space The primary images, objects or forms in a piece of artwork.
Negative Space The areas around 2-D or 3-D shapes or forms which defines those objects. The background.
There are seven methods artist use to create the illusion of SPACE (Depth) Size: The smaller an object is, the farther away it appears. Position: The higher on the picture plane an object is the farther away it appears.
OVERLAP An object in front of another object in your picture plane will appear closer to the viewer.
Color • Objects that are farther away will appear lighter, duller and have less contrast. • Bright colors can only be seen on near objects. • Warm colors can only be seen on close objects.
Detail • Objects that are closer will have more details. • Details fade the farther away from the viewer an object is.
