- "Elements of art are stylistic features that are included within an art piece to help the artist communicate."
The basic components that artists use to create works of art, including line, shape, form, value, texture, color, and space.
Line: The path created by a moving point. It can be straight, curved, thick, thin, smooth, or rough.
Shape: The 2D or 3D area defined by a boundary, such as an outline or edge. It can be geometric or organic.
Form: The 3D aspect of an object, created through the use of light and shadow, and other techniques. It can be geometric or organic.
Color: The visual sensation produced by the reflection, absorption, or transmission of light. Its properties include hue, value, and saturation.
Texture: The surface quality of an object, as perceived through touch or sight. It can be smooth, rough, soft, hard, etc.
Value: The lightness or darkness of an object or color. It can create contrast and emphasize form.
Space: The area or volume in and around objects, defined by other elements of art. It can create depth, perspective, and balance.
Balance: The distribution of visual weight in a composition, achieved through the use of elements such as line, shape, and color.
Contrast: The difference between elements in a composition, such as light and dark, big and small, or rough and smooth.
Unity: The sense of harmony and connection among the elements in a composition.
Emphasis: The creation of a focal point or area of interest in a composition, achieved through the use of color, contrast, and other elements.
Movement: The suggestion of motion or direction in a composition, created through the use of elements such as line, shape, and color.
Rhythm: The repetition or variation of elements in a composition, creating a sense of pattern and continuity.
