The document discusses the elements and principles of art. It defines the basic building blocks or elements of visual art as line, shape and form, space, color, and texture. It also discusses common elements of music such as rhythm, dynamics, melody, harmony, timbre, and texture. The principles of art, including balance, scale and proportion, emphasis and contrast, unity and variety, harmony, movement, rhythm, and repetition and pattern, describe how these elements are used and manipulated to convey the artist's intentions and determine if a work of art is successful.

Elements and principles are fundamental concepts in art and design, describing the basic components of a visual composition like line, color, shape, texture, and space, and how these elements are used to create balanced, visually appealing compositions. ELEMENTS OF ARTS AUDITORY Together with literature music as an art form is classified as auditory art. However some would argue that it is under the broad category of performance art, either way, music, much like the visual arts, has its own building blocks or elements. Perhaps one of the most widespread forms of art, whose intersection in daily life is most perceptible is music. Some of the common elements of music are the following rhythm, dynamics, melody, harmony timbre and texture. ELEMENTS OF ART: VISUAL These elements of art generally produced when something is done to the medium after the technique is carried out. It must be underscored. However, that all works of art require all elements to be present. Some art forms also necessitate some of the elements as they are inherent in the very nature of them. LINE - a line, a point moving on a path, defines composition perimeters and can vary in orientation, direction, shape, and thickness, importing visual elements and conveying meaning. SHAPE AND FORM - shape and form are related concepts in art, defining the space occupied by the object. Shapes are two dimensions, while form is three dimensions. Both can be identified by visual components. SPACE - space, related to shape and form, is often inferred from a sense of depth, with real space being three-dimensional, while two-dimensional artworks use techniques to manifest this element. COLOR - color enhances artwork appeal by allowing viewers to respond based on memory, emotion, and instinction, among other factors. TEXTURE - space texture, a real or implied element in an artwork, is experienced through the senses, making the object tactile. PRINCIPLES OF ART These principles will provide explicit ways in which these elements are used, how they are manipulates, how they are interact, and how they inform the overall composition of the artwork to assist the artist in conveying his intentions. The use of these principles can help determine whether a painting is successful and whether or not the painting is finished. These principles are: > BALANCE > SCALE AND PROPORTION > EMPHASIS AND CONTRAST > UNITY AND VARIETY > HARMONY > MOVEMENT > RHYTHM > REPETITION AND PATTERN
