35. ELEMENTS OF ART
These are basic elements that are used by artist in
creating art; they are what you use to create an
aesthetically pleasing work. When we make art,
we need to understand and apply these seven
elements of art. (EUROAMERICAN SCHOOL OF
MONTERREY by MS. GABI MARÍ DE SERNA’S
ART CLASS!)

36. LINE
A mark made by a tool
such as a brush, pen or
stick; a moving point.

37. SHAPE
A flat, enclosed area that
has two dimensions,
length and width. Artists
use both geometric and
organic shapes.

38. COLOR
Is one of the most dominant
elements. It is created by light.
There are three properties of
color; Hue (name) Value
(shades and tints,)and intensify
(brightness.)

39. VALUE
Degrees of lightness or
darkness. The
difference be-tween
values is called value
contrast.

40. FORM
Objects that are three-
dimensional having length,
width and height. They can be
viewed from many sides.
Forms take up space and value.

41. TEXTURE
Describes the feel of an
actual surface. The
surface quality of an
object; can be real or
implied.

Space can be two-
dimensional, negative
and/ or positive. Tomb of the Diver, Paestrum 480
BCE

43. PRINCIPLES OF ART
These are the standards or rules to be observed
by artist in creating works of Art; they are how
to create and organize Artwork. When
elements are utilized with the principles in
mind, outstanding artwork is created.
(EUROAMERICAN SCHOOL OF MONTERREY
by MS. GABI MARÍ DE SERNA’S ART CLASS!)

44. BALANCE
A distribution of visual weight
on either side of the vertical
axis. Sym-metrical balance
uses the same characteristics.
Asymmetrical uses different
but equally weighted
features.

45. CONTRAST
The arrangement of opposite
elements (light vs. dark,

It is the place in which an

first.

47. MOVEMENT
How the eye moves
through the composition;
leading the attention of the
