The document discusses the key visual elements of art and design including form, line, shape, value, color, texture, and space. It provides definitions and examples of each element. Specifically, it defines line as points or dots following a path, shape as two-dimensional areas with boundaries, value as varying lights and darks, color as the effect of light rays on the eyes/brain, texture as surface qualities, and space as dimensions in works of art. It also discusses principles like linear perspective and atmospheric perspective that create the illusion of depth and distance.

- 1. The Vocabulary of Art The Visual Elements of Art and Design
- 2. Form • the physical or visual aspects, the composition • The elements and principles of art • Formalism • Form works with content to create meaning
- 3. The Problem We All Live With by Norman Rockwell, 1964
- 4. The Problem We All Live With by Norman Rockwell, 1964 • The horizontal lines of the work imply stability of subject • The shallow, cropped space makes the subject matter more intense and immediate • The value contrast of the clean white dress with the textured, dirty wall helps convey her innocence and purity • The strength of the girl is conveyed by her stable, triangular shape • The little girl is the focal point of the work created by the high contrast and the framing created by the cropped, figures on the sides • the asymmetry of the composition pulls the little girl and our eye forward conveying the concept that the country is moving forward • the artist has made the viewer complicit with the racist protestors by making us share their point-of-view (carries further the title of the painting)
- 5. The elements of design • Line • Shape (mass) • Value (light) • Color • Texture • Space
- 6. Line • points or dots following a path • types= straight, curved, zigzag • actual vs implied lines • directional forces • expressive qualities

- 15. Implied Lines
- 16. Line Direction • Vertical lines = strength, force • Horizontal lines = stability, calm • Diagonal lines = movement, energy • Curved lines = flowing energy, softness, sensuality, organic

- 26. How lines are used in art Continuous lines
- 27. How lines are used in art Hatching & Cross-Hatching lines
- 28. How lines are used in art Texture
- 29. Shape & Mass • shape= 2d area with definable boundary, has height and width • mass= 3d area with definable boundary, has height, width, and depth • actual vs implied • geometric, curvilinear, rectilinear, biomorphic • figure/ ground relationship • planar construction
- 34. Geometric shapes/masses namable shapes, circles, spheres, rectangles, triangles, etc
- 35. Rectilinear shapes/masses unnamable shapes with straight edges and sharp corners
- 37. biomorphic shapes/masses curvilinear shapes that imply organic forms
- 38. how shape and mass are used in art figure/ground relationship (in 2d art only)
- 39. Obvious figure/ground relationshipeasy to tell what is the figure (or positive shape) and what is the ground (or negative space)
- 40. Ambiguous figure/ground relationshipdifficult to tell what is the figure (or positive shape) and what is the ground (or negative space) also known as “figure/ground reversal”
- 41. How shape and mass are used in art constructing with planes
- 42. Value as element • value = the varied lights and darks reflecting off a surface • also known as “tones”, or “tonal variation” • value gradation • chiaroscuro = italian for Light/dark • mostly relates to realism but not necessarily
- 43. value
- 44. Value
- 45. value gradation
- 46. value gradation
- 47. chiaroscuro • The traditional term for the effects of light and dark in art • Chiaro= light, scuro = dark • Developed during Renaissance • Usually involves soft, subtle value changes • described the particular parts of light and shadow (highlight, core shadow, reflected light, cast shadow) highlight core shadow reflected light cast shadow
- 49. Light • the quality and direction of light as it is shown on a sculpture or in a room • an actual light fixture or effect as part of an art , often neon
- 53. Light Nancy Holt’s “sun tunnels”
- 55. Light Glen Ligon James Turrell James Clar
- 56. Color • effect of light rays and interaction with eyes/brain • additive vs subtractive color • aspects of color = hue, value, intensity or saturation • color wheel • color schemes
- 57. color as effect of light
- 58. additive vs subtractive color mixing additive= mixing light subtractive= mixing pigments(adding light so light gets lighter) (subtracting light so light gets darker)
- 59. Aspects of subtractive color • Hue= name of color (red, green, violet, etc) • Value= darkness and lightness of color (light red, dark blue, etc) • Saturation or intensity= the brightness and dullness of the color (bright pink, dull orange) • when painters mix paint they control the hue, value, and saturation
- 61. Color Schemes • common combinations of colors that help unify an image • monochromatic= one hue with different values • complementary= two hues (and their values) directly across from each other on color wheel • analogous= 3 or 4 hues adjacent to each other on color wheel
- 62. monochromatic
- 63. complementary
- 64. analogous
- 65. Texture • surface quality of a form • illusionistic or actual
- 66. Illusionistic texture formed by regular or irregular patterning of elements
- 67. Illusionistic texture formed by regular or irregular patterning of elements

- 74. Space • actual space in sculpture, installation, and architecture • illusionistic space in 2d art (foreground, middle ground, background) • simple use of overlapping and relative size • linear perspective, one-point, two-point or more • atmospheric perspective • foreshortening
- 75. Actual Space Henrique OliveiraAi Weiwei Installation Art
- 76. Actual Space Frank Lloyd WrightZaha Hadid Architecture
- 77. Illusionistic space Picture Plane= the imaginary plane that covers the surface of the picture or canvas
- 78. Illusionistic space early depiction of space used overlap, differences in sizes, and the idea that objects lower on picture plane seem closer to viewer
- 79. One-Point Perspectivewhen the face or front plane is parallel with picture plane, creates one vanishing point on the horizon line (where sky and earth meet, eye level)
- 80. Linear Perspective one point perspective
- 81. Linear Perspective one point perspective
- 82. Two-Point Perspectivewhen no face or front plane is parallel with picture plane, creates two or more vanishing points on horizon line
- 83. Illusionistic space isometric projection showing depth and space without lines appearing to meet at vanishing point, often seen in video games and M.C. Escher
- 84. Linear Perspective Two point or multiple point perspective
- 85. Linear Perspective Two point or multiple point perspective
- 86. Linear Perspective Two point or multiple point perspective
- 87. Atmospheric Perspective illusion of depth created by value, color, or texture gradients, a darker or warmer or more textured color comes forward while cooler, lighter, and smoother goes back
- 90. Foreshortening smaller forms in perspective, apparent diminishing in length
