 There are several types of line:
 Straight
 Curved
 Zigzag
 Spiral
 Expressive
 geometric
 Orthogonals-vertical line in a one point
linear perspective
 transversals- horizontal lines in a one
point linear perrspective
 Two vanishing points and one horizon
 Think Geometry!
 Shape is two dimensional
 Mass is three dimensional
 Simply put, the artist may create
negative space by using white in
drawings or paintings:
 Tenebrism-use of dark shadow and light
to highlight the subjects in a painting
 Texture is created by wide thick brush
strokes like Impressionistic painters
 Texture is also created by the feel of a
piece of art-depth, medium, quality,
consistency…
 The absence of color can create a three
dimensional effect:
