PREPARED BY:

ABISO, JESSA MAE D.

GIL, KRISTLE DARLENE BEED 2-A DAY
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, students are expected to:

Recognize the elements and principles of arts.

Construct an artwork by applying the elements of arts.
Show cooperation and participation in the activity.
ART
WHAT IS
ART?
Art is a creative activity that expresses imaginative
or technical skill. 
WHAT HAVE YOU
NOTICED IN THE
PICTURES ?
“ELEMENTS OF
ART”
LINE
LINE
 Line is one of the basic elements of art
along with Shape, Texture, and Color.

 These are the building blocks of all art

and are a good place to start when
making, looking at or analyzing works
of art.

 A line in art is primarily a dot or series

of dots. The dots form a line, which can
vary in thickness, color, and shape. 
TYPES OF LINES
HORIZONTAL LINES

 are lines that are

parallel to the
horizon and
generally flow
from left to right
or vice versa.
VERTICAL LINES

are lines that move up

and down without any
slant.
DIAGONAL LINES

 are lines that slant.

ZIG ZAG LINES

 are lines that

change direction
abruptly.
CURVED LINES

 are lines
gradually change
direction.
BROKEN LINES

 It is include open
spaces but continue
on a path. These
lines may imply an
edge or be used to
communicate a
highlight.
SHAPES
SHAPES

 It is created when a line is enclosed.

Shape is one of the basic elements
of art and it has a variety of uses in
the creation of art.

 An element of art that is two-

dimensional, flat, or limited to
height and width.
“TYPES OF
SHAPES”
CIRCLE

 A circle is a closed shape. It

is categorized as a two-
dimensional geometric
shape that is round in
structure. It does not have
any lines or corners. For
example, the wheel of a
vehicle, pizza base,
dartboard.
OVAL
 An oval is an
elongated shape
slightly similar to a
circle. It has no
straight lines or
corners. For example,
the number zero (0) or
mirror.
SQUARE

 A square is a closed
2-D shape that is
formed by four
sides. The length of
each side is equal
in measurement.
For example, a
chessboard and a
carrom board.
TRIANGLE

 A triangle is a shape
with three sides and
is categorized as a
two-dimensional
geometric shape. For
example, the shape
of tangy nachos, one
slice of cheese burst
pizza.
RECTANGLE

 A rectangle has four

sides. It is a two-
dimensional geometric
shape in which the
length of the opposite
sides is equal. For
example, laptop screen,
touch screen mobile
phones etc.
COLOR
COLOR

 Color is the element of art

that refers to reflected light.

 It is an element consisting
of hues, of which there are
three properties: hue,
chroma or intensity, and
value
3 Properties of Color 3 Primary Colors
 Hue
 which is the distinguishable color, like • The primary colors are
red, blue or yellow.
RED , YELLOW, and
 Value BLUE.
 meaning the lightness or darkness of
the hue.

 Chroma or intensity
 distinguishing between strong and weak
colors.
TEXTURE
TEXTURE
 It is used to describe the
surface quality of the work,
referencing the types of lines
the artist created.

 It refers to the way an object

feels to the touch or looks as it
may feel if it were touched.

 Understanding it fully will

lead to stronger drawings and
paintings.
“PRINCIPLE OF
ARTS”
BALANCE
BALANCE

 The equalizing visual

forces or elements in an
artwork.

 The placement of all the

elements of the
compositions so that their
visual weights seem
evenly distributed.
“3 Types of Balance”
SYMMETRICAL

 Symmetrical
balance is when
objects in the
artwork are
balanced evenly
ASYMMETRICAL

 Asymmetrical
balance is when
objects in the artwork
are balanced
unevenly
RADIAL

 Radial balance is
when objects is the
artwork are balanced
in circular (radial)
manner.
PROPORTION
PROPORTION
 Proportion deals with the
proper relation between two
objects or parts. The parts of a
work should relate to the other
parts as well as to the entire
composition.
 Proportion in art can be
defined as the relation
based on size between
parts or objects within a
composition.
VARIETY
VARIETY
 Concerned with
difference or
contrast

Variety often shows

the differences
between similar
objects
