The document discusses what constitutes art and how to analyze images critically. It provides objectives for an activity that involves determining a definition of art, deciding what is and isn't art, and defining terms related to viewing art. Participants will examine images and discuss in small groups what is art, types of art, how art influences society, why art is important, and the messages art can convey. The document then defines key elements of art like perspective, light, color, form, motion, proportion, symbols, and lines and provides examples of how artists use these elements.

11. Perspective
Perspective is the way in which artists create
an illusion of depth on a flat surface. For
hundreds of years painters have tried to
represent accurately a scene that exists in
three dimensions on a two-dimensional
canvas. One of the ways to create this illusion
is to make the objects that are far away
smaller than those that are closer to the
viewer.
12. Light
Just as stage designers use lighting to
spotlight a performer, painters will often
highlight important elements in paintings
13. Color
Use of different colors provide emphasis,
emotion, etc. Often colors highlight parts of
an image to draw specific attention to it.
14. Form
By using light and shadows, artists give
volume to their subjects. One way one
can give figures three-dimensional form
is to reflect light off their bodies and
paint shadows cast by them.
