• a line can be defined as a straight one- dimensional figure that has no thickness and extends
endlessly in both directions. It is often described as the shortest distance between any two
points.
LINES
• Stippling is a drawing technique in which areas of light and shadow are created using nothing
but dots.
• For darker areas, you apply a greater number of dots and keep them close together.
• Then for progressively lighter areas, use fewer dots and space them farther apart.
• We used to do this in butter paper with types of dotted pens.
NATURE DRAWING.
• Nature drawing is when you go outdoors
and draw what you find in nature.
• Nature of Art is that it is a largely non-
symbolic form of communication and a
primary counterpoint to language.
• examining the colors and shapes of birds
or flowers, observing the effects of light at
different moments, or noticing the ways a
landscape can change over time.

2D Forms:
2D shapes refer to all those shapes that we
can lay on a flat piece of paper or any
mathematical plane.
The most common example of 2D shapes is
the drawing of squares, triangles, and circles.
3D FORMS
3D Forms
A 3D shape has three dimensions.
The D in '3D' stands for dimensional. In a world with
three dimensions, you can travel forwards, backwards,
right, left, and even up and down.
Examples of 3D Shapes
Dice -- cubes.
Shoe box -- cuboid or rectangular prism.
Ice cream cone -- cone.
Globe -- sphere.
aperweight or Egyptian tomb -- pyramid.
Soda can -- cylinde
TYPES OF 3D FORMS:
• Tetrahedron

• Truncated cube
• Truncated Octohedron
• Rhombicuboctohedron
• Truncated Cuboctohedron
• Snub cube
• Icosidoodecahedron
• Truncated Dodecahedron
• Truncated Icosahedron

COLOUR THEORY
• PRIMARY COLOURS- Primary colors are the basis for all other color and any color can be
made using a combination of primary colors.
• SECONDARY COLOURS-A secondary color is a color made by mixing of two
primary colors in a given color space.
• TERTIARY COLOURS-Tertiary colors are combinations of primary and secondary colours.
COLOUR
SCHEMES
• Analogous Colour scheme are next to one another on the color wheel.
• Monochromatic color scheme uses tints, tones and shades within the same hue or color family.
• Triadic color scheme uses three colors that are evenly spaced around the color wheel.
• Complementary color scheme uses colors opposite of each other on the color wheel.
• Square color scheme uses four colors evenly spaced around the color wheel.
• Rectangular color scheme uses four colors made from two complementary colors.
• Split complementary color scheme uses one root color plus the two colors that are on either
side of the root color’s complement.
• Tint: A color that has been lightened by
adding white.
• Hue:The color of paint as it appears out
of the tube, unmixed.
• Tone:A color that has been lightened or
darkened by adding gray.
• Shade:A color that has been darkened by
adding black.
