• Visual Elements of Arts and Designs
• Importance of visual elements of arts and design:

  • Enables us to describe what an artist has done
  • Analyze what is going on in a particular piece
  • Communicate thoughts and findings using a common language
  • No Elements of Art... No Art Work!
• Design elements are the basic units of any visual design which form its structure and convey visual messages
• Painter and design theorist Maitland E. Graves defined the elements of design as line, direction, shape, size, texture, value, and color
• Elements of art and design
• Color:

  • Result of light reflecting back from an object to our eyes
  • Color theory and the color wheel are often referred to when studying color combinations in visual design
  • Color allows viewers to have different interpretations of visual designs
  • Color strategies are used for organization and consistency in a design product
• Line:

  • Defined by a point moving in space
  • Can be vertical, horizontal, diagonal, or curved
  • Different lines create different moods
  • Example: stars in a constellation connected via imaginary lines are a natural example of using lines in a composition
• Point:

  • Beginning of “something” in “nothing”
  • Provokes human imagination to link abstract points with familiar shapes or forms
• Shape:

  • Two-dimensional area that stands out from the space next to or around it
  • Types of shapes: geometric shapes, organic shapes, curvilinear shapes, rectilinear shapes
  • Artists can choose to create a composition that revolves mainly around one style of shape or combine both
• Texture:

  • Refers to the physical and visual qualities of a surface
  • Types of textures: tactile texture, visual texture, pattern
  • Texture can be used to attract or repel interest to an element in a design
• Pattern:

  • Motifs repeated over and over again in a surface result in a pattern
  • Patterns are frequently used in fashion design, textile design, and architectural design
• Space:

  • Concerned with the area deep within the moment of designated design
  • In two-dimensional design, space concerns creating the illusion of a third dimension on a flat surface
  • Techniques like overlap and shading are used to create depth and dimension in a design
• Visual Elements of Arts and Designs:

  • Shading adds gradation marks to make a two-dimensional surface appear three-dimensional
  • Highlight, Transitional Light, Core of the Shadow, Reflected Light, and Cast Shadow give an object a three-dimensional look
• Linear Perspective:

  • Relates to how an object appears smaller the farther away it gets
• Activity 4: What I Know Chart, Part 2:

  • Students need to go back to Activity 1 and answer the "What I Learned" column based on their learning from the lesson
• Activity 5: Check for Understanding:

  • Students need to read each question carefully and write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if it is incorrect
• Activity 6: Thinking about Learning:

  • Progress Tracker: Students mark their work tracker to see accomplished work and remaining tasks
  • My Learning Tracker: Students record the date, module number, learning targets, activities done, scores in activities, factors contributing to performance, and plans for improvement
  • Students need to answer questions about the lesson difficulty, meeting learning objectives, challenges faced, and how they overcame those challenges
• FAQs:

  • Question 1: Building blocks of art composition are the Visual Elements of line, shape, tone, color, pattern, texture, and form
  • Question 2: Careers in art and design include Art Directors, Craft and Fine Artists, Fashion Designers, Graphic Designers, etc.
• The Visual Elements of Art are Line, Shape, Color, Texture, Space, Form, and Value
• Knowing the elements of art enables us to describe what an artist has done, analyze a piece, and communicate thoughts using a common language
• No Elements of Art means No Art Work
• Color is the result of light reflecting back from an object to our eyes
• Color theory and the color wheel are often referred to when studying color combinations in visual design
• Color allows viewers to have different interpretations of visual designs
• Color strategies are used for organization and consistency in design products
• Line is defined by a point moving in space and can be vertical, horizontal, diagonal, or curved
• Different lines create different moods in art
• A Point is the beginning of "something" in "nothing" and can provoke human imagination
• Shape is a two-dimensional area that stands out from the space next to or around it
• Shapes can be geometric, organic, curvilinear, or rectilinear
• Texture refers to the physical and visual qualities of a surface
• Texture can be tactile, visual, or created through collage or assemblage
• Pattern results from repeating motifs in a surface
• Patterns are used in fashion design, textile design, and architectural design
• Space in design concerns creating the illusion of a third dimension on a flat surface
• Overlap and shading are used to create depth in a two-dimensional design
