  sculpture, ceramics, photography, video, filmmaking, design, crafts and architecture.
• ELEMENTS OF VA:

  1. LINE - This refers to a prolongation of a point, or a mark on a surface. Solid lines can be used in order to define form while broken lines are typically used to suggest hidden forms. Lines are also used to suggest dimensions, and to guide visual movement.

  Horizontal line usually suggests calmness,

  vertical lines may convey strength,

  diagonal lines create an impression of action,

  curved lines create an expression of gradual change of

  direction, and

  circular line may pertain an abrupt change of direction.
• ELEMETS OF VA:

  2. SHAPE AND FORM - This element of art refers to an area with boundaries

  identified or drawn using lines. However, they differ in terms of dimensions. Shape is two-dimensional, flat or limited to height and width while Form is three-dimensional and encloses volume; includes height width and depth.
• ELEMENTS OF VA:

  3. COLOR - This refers to visual perception that allows us to differentiate objects due to the way various wavelength of light are reflected. Is a very important element because it can communicate information and emotion to the viewer.
• Properties of Color:

  a. HUE refers to the basic or pure color, and is represented in the color wheel.

  b. VALUE refers to the lightness and darkness of color. A light color or tint is the result of adding white to a hue, while a dark color results from adding black to a hue.

  c. SATURATION refers to the brightness and dullness of color. It is also referred to as purity of the color. A bright color can be produced by adding more pigment to the same hue, while a dull color can be produced by adding gray or color’s complement to the pigment.
• Color Schemes

  a. Monochromatic - uses tints, tones and shades within the same hue or color family.

  b. Analogous - uses three or four colors that sit next to one another on the color wheel.

  c. Complementary - A color scheme uses colors opposite of each other on the color wheel.

  d. Split Complementary - uses one root color plus the two colors that are on either side of the root color’s complement.
• COLOE SCHEMES

  e. Triadic - uses three colors evenly spaced around the color wheel.

  f. Square - uses four colors evenly spaced around the color wheel.

  g. Tetrad or Rectangular - uses four colors made from two complementary colors.

  h. Analogous Complementary - color scheme that uses three analogous colors, plus the complement of the middle color of the analogous.
• 4. VALUE - This element refers to lightness or darkness of an area. This element is

  evident in creating shadows for two-dimensional object to give an illusion of depth.

  may describe texture if the surface is either smooth or rough. Texture may also be

  described as actual or implied.
• 6. SPACE - It refers to the area that is occupied by an object as well as the area surrounding that object or subject. An illusion of space can still be created in two-dimensional perspective. There are two types of perspective: atmospheric perspective, which utilizes the properties of light and air in depicting illusion ofdistance; and linear perspective which involves the use of vanishing points and receding hidden lines.
• 7. TIME AND MOTION - Movement in the visual arts can either be an illusion or an actual motion. An illusion of movement is more common in two-dimensional artworks. On the other hand, actual motion is easily seen in kinetic sculpture, a type of sculpture that moves with the wind or are vibrating with the surrounding air.
