The Elements of ArtJust as there are basic kinds of words (such as nouns and
verbs) there are basic kinds of art elements (visual symbols). All artists have the same elements of art with
which to work with. These are line, shape and form, space, color, value and texture.
These are the building blocks or ingredients that an artist puts together to create a work of art. No matter how an
artwork is made, it will contain some or all of these elements.
If we want to make art, we need to understand these elements of art. They also help us understand, appreciate and enjoy art.
