This document discusses the six elements of visual art: form, shape, color, value, space, and texture. It provides examples and definitions for each element. Form and shape are described as two-dimensional or three-dimensional. Color has three properties - hue, intensity, and value. Space includes foreground, middle ground, and background, as well as concepts like negative and positive space. Texture refers to how something feels or looks, such as slippery, grainy, fluffy, etc. The document also discusses techniques like formalism and the rule of thirds.

o Negative Space and Positive Space
