Ppce 312 Analysis and Critical Understanding of The Visual Arts

The document defines key elements and principles of visual art. It describes line, color, value, form, space, texture, and shape as elements. Contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, proportion, rhythm, balance, unity, and variety are presented as principles of design that organize elements in an artwork. The main difference between shape and form is that shape is two-dimensional while form occupies three-dimensional space. Art is defined as the expression of feelings and emotions through skills and talents, originating from the Latin word "Ars". Common misconceptions are that only some are artists and that art is only for the rich and famous.
