Line • An element of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Van Gogh – Thatched Cottage in Cordeville What types of lines do you see? What do the lines do?
Piet Mondrian – Kompositsioon A Describe the lines in this work. How are they different from the lines Van Gogh used?
Shape • A defined two dimensional area. Has height and width. May be geometric or free form.
Ellsworth Kelly – White Black Shape is used in this work to make a striking statement. How do you think people reacted to this sort of art when it was new?
Georgia O’Keefe Describe how shape is used in the work of art.
Form • An object with three dimensions. Has height, width, and depth. May be geometric or free form.
Richard Sweeney – Paper Sculpture What kind of form would you describe this as? Geometrical or free form? Why?
Richard Deacon – Between Fiction and Fact This sculpture uses a mixture of both Geometrical and Free Forms. Why do you think the artist gave it this title?
Example 1 Notice the symmetry. This is a very complex form that uses repeated shapes to create a three dimensional structure.
Example 2 This piece is quite different. Also symmetrical, there is a very fine balance that allows it to be supported by one “foot” at the far end. What does this form remind you of?
Example 3 This is a completely different approach. This artist had a definite form in mind that is based on reality. You can see the roof lines, the staircases, door, and windows of this Japanese Pagoda.
Example 4 Another sculpture intended to depict a form from everyday life. Aside from color, this artist has used paper to depict a very life-like representation of this truck.
Texture • The element of art that refers to how things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched.
Anselm Kiefer – The Unknown Painter Concerning Texture, what do you think this painting would look like in person? Why?

Vermeer – Girl with a Pearl Earring How is space being used in this portrait?
Value • The element of art that describes the darkness or lightness of an object.
Francisco de Goya – Saturn Devouring his Son What do you notice about the value of the light in this painting? How does it help set the mood or the work?
Color • An element of art that is derived from reflected light. The sensation of color is aroused in the brain by response of the eyes to different wavelengths of light. Black absorbs all color wavelengths. Objects appear to be the color of waves they reflect.

Art Criticism Look at the painting to the right (The Old Guitarist by Pablo Picasso). Think about what you see specifically the subject/object, use of elements of art, the mood/meaning, and your judgment of the work. As a class we’ll discuss it using the steps of art criticism.
