The Visual Arts

The visual arts are art forms such as painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics,
photography, video, image, filmmaking, design, crafts, and architecture.
Visual art is a fundamental component of the human experience reflecting the world and the time
in which we live. Art can help us understand our history, our culture, our lives, and the experience
of others in a manner that cannot be achieved through other means. It can also be a source of
inspiration, reflection, and joy.
Elements of Visual Arts
1. Line - the foundation of all drawing. It is the first and
most versatile of the visual elements. Line in an
artwork can be used in many different ways. It can
be used to suggest shape, pattern, form, structure,
growth, depth, distance, rhythm, movement and a
range of emotions.

2. Shape - Shape an element of art that is two-


dimensional, flat, or limited to height and width.
volume; includes height, width and depth (as in a
cube, a sphere, a pyramid, or a cylinder).

3. Form - is a three-dimensional object with volume of


height, width and depth. These objects include cubes,
spheres and cylinders. Form is often used when
referring to physical works of art, like sculptures, as
form is connected most closely with those three-
dimensional works.
4. Color - an element of art made up of three properties: hue,
value, and intensity. Intensity: quality of brightness and purity
(high intensity= color is strong and bright; low intensity= color is
faint and dull) Texture An element of art that refers to the way
things feel, or look as if they might feel if touched.

5. Value - Value is the lightness or darkness of a color, and


it adds dimension in a piece. Value is also a concept in
color, as mentioned above. Artists can create value in
line drawings through different shading techniques
using different line types.

6. Space - is an interesting element in art. It


is the variation of size and shape in the elements of
a drawing or painting. Often, this serves to create the
illusion of depth on a flat canvas. One way to create
the illusion of depth is to have objects on the canvas
overlap.

7. Texture - Texture in art and composition is the visual and


tactile surface characteristics that are added to a work of
art. It refers to the physical appearance or feel of an object,
and can be seen through bumps, ridges, grooves and other
physical details.
