The document discusses the elements of art, including line, shape, form, space, color, value, and texture.
[1] Line indicates direction, orientation, movement, and energy and is considered the oldest and simplest element. [2] Shape is created when a line crosses itself or other lines to enclose a space. [3] Form describes the structure of shapes from different perspectives and is three-dimensional showing height, width and depth.

Elements of Art considered three-dimensional showing height, width
and depth.
LINE – is a mark between two points. There are
various types of lines from straight to curve to diagonal and more. Lines indicates direction, orientation, movement, and energy. It is considered as the oldest, simplest, universal element.
SPACE – Space is the surface or the area within
the artwork. It constitutes the area or distance, between, around, above or within things. This example highlights the importance that both negative and positive space can have within a design.
COLOR – Color can be considered as the most
expressive of all the elements of art. Colors can be easily recognize in any visual experience. The primary source of colors is light.
Shape – Shape is an enclosed area or surface. It
can be easily identified because when a line crosses itself or intersects with other lines to enclose a space it creates a shape.
Value – Right next to color, value can suggest
emotional and dramatic impression by using lightness and darkness in a composition. Value is referred to Chiaroscuro meaning lightness and darkness (from the Italian word chiaro “clear” and oscoro “dark”).
FORM – It describes the structure of shape and
object from the different perspective. Form is Texture – is found in all visual arts. It is the element that deals primarily with the sense of touch or the tactile sensation or stimuli. It is how the surface in a certain composition feels.
