Value is an element of art that refers to the lights and darks in a work. It is created using a range of blacks, whites, and grays. An artist can also create values using colors by varying the lights (tints) and darks (shades) of a color. Value scales demonstrate the transition from light to dark and artists can create values in their work through techniques like hatching, stippling, scumbling, shading, smudging, and crosshatching lines.
