Geometric Shape

Organic and geometric shapes. ... Shapes are limited to two dimensions: length and width. 1. Geometric shapes: Are circles, rectangles, squares, triangles and so on - have the clear edges one achieves when using tools to create them.

Color

Produced from light on the colored object. colors have three properties.

Positive Space

Space in an artwork that is positive. Filled with something, such as lines, designs, color, or shapes.

Space

Space, as one of the classic seven elements of art, refers to the distances or areas around, between, and within components of a piece. Space can be positive or negative, open or closed, shallow or deep, and two-dimensional or three-dimensional.

Foreground

That part of a landscape or picture situated or represented as nearest the spectator.

Picture Plane

The flat surface or plane that the artist organizes the picture in.

Middleground

The intermediate zone of space, between foreground and background, in a work of art.

Primary Colors

The primary colors are Red, Blue, and Yellow.

Value

This is the varied darkness and lightness of a color.

Negative Space

empty spaces surrounding shapes and forms/ backgrounds

Background

the part of a painting representing what lies behind objects in the foreground dark shadows in the background of the painting.

Shade

In color theory, a tint is a mixture of a color with white, which reduces darkness, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting color mixture's relative lightness. A tone is produced either by mixing a color with grey, or by both tinting and shading.

Shape

In the visual arts, shape is a flat, enclosed area of an artwork created through lines, textures, colours or an area enclosed by other shapes such as triangles, circles, and squares. Likewise, a form can refer to a three-dimensional composition or object within a three-dimensional composition.

Texture

In the visual arts, texture is the perceived surface quality of a work of art. It is an element of two-dimensional and three-dimensional designs and is distinguished by its perceived visual and physical properties. Use of texture, along with other elements of design, can convey a variety of messages and emotions.

Color Wheel

A color wheel or color circle is an abstract illustrative organization of color hues around a circle, which shows the relationships between primary colors, secondary colors, tertiary colors etc. ... For instance, some reserve the term color wheel for mechanical rotating devices, such as color tops or filter wheels.

Form

A form is an artist's way of using elements of art, principles of design, and media. Form as an element of art is three-dimensional and encloses space. Like a shape, a form has length and width, but it also has depth. Forms are either geometric or free-form.

Line

A mark then spans point to point and has a length and width.

Hue

Also called a spectral color, the hue is the traditional color name given to a specific wavelength of light in the light spectrum. ... The hue is what a layman would describe as the color.

Tint

Tone in an artistic context refers to the light and dark values used to render a realistic object, or to create an abstract composition. When using pastel, an artist may often use a colored paper support, using areas of pigment to define lights and darks, while leaving the bare support to show through as the mid-tone.

Tone

When using pastel, an artist may often use a colored paper support, using areas of pigment to define lights and darks, while leaving the bare support to show through as the mid-tone.
