LINE → a continuous mark made on a surface by a moving point. Line can be categorized as

horizontal , vertical , diagonal , curved , and zigzag .

SHAPE → an enclosed area defined and determined by other art elements ; 2 dimensional. It

can be geometric or organic.

COLOR → is light reflected off objects. Color has three main characteristics: hue, value

and intensity.

VALUE → the lightness or darkness of a color.

TEXTURE → texture is the surface quality of a shape , it shows whether the surface is rough,

smooth , rough etc. it may be actual or implied.

FORM → a three-dimensional objects or something in two-dimensional artwork that appears

to be three-dimensional.

SPACE → is concerned with the area deep within the moment of designated design, the design

will take place on.

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN

→ is what we use to organize element of arts, or the tools to make arts.

BALANCE

→ visual equality in shape, form, value, color, etc. Balance can be symmetrical or asymmetrical. Objects, values, colors, textures, shapes, forms, etc., can be used in creating a

balance in a composition. →a work of art possesses balance when its visual or actual weights on masses (including color masses) are distributed in such a way that they achieve harmony.

→gives a feeling of stability and rest CONTRAST

→ offers some change in value creating a visual discord in a composition. Contrast shows the difference between shapes and can be used as a background to bring objects out and

forward in a design. → achieves emphasis by setting the point of emphasis apart from the rest of its background.

Various kinds of contrasts are possible. The use of a neutral background isolates the point of emphasis. RHYTHM

→ is a movement in which some elements recurs regularly. It can be fast “Tempo” , or Slow

and more melodic. →is the regular repetition of sensory impression. A series of units repeated one after another produces rhythmic movement. EMPHASIS

→ then focal point of an image, or one area or things stand out the most. →means the giving the proper importance to the parts or the whole. → is also referred to as point of focus, or interruption. It marks the locations in a composition

which most strongly draw the viewers attention.

PROPORTION

→ relationship to one part to another or to the whole with respect to the size , quantity , or degree ; a ratio.

→ is the comparative relationship of the parts of or the composition to each other and to the whole.

→ refers to the relative size and scale of the various elements in a design. UNITY or HARMONY

→ when all the elements work together to create a pleasing image. → is oneness or wholeness.

→ a work of art achieves unity when its parts are necessary to the composition.
