1. INTD 53 color and the elements of design exploring how color works with space, line, form / shape, texture and light

2. space value helps to determine the relative position of an object in space also influenced by value of background dark background—light items seen first light background—dark items seen first middle value background does not impart spatial feeling

3. space—value of background

4. space

5. space—value of background

6. pure hues in gray backgrounds shades in white backgrounds tints in black backgrounds space—value of background

7. space controls distance, void, or interval between objects provides interaction between line, shape, color and texture illusionary space: shallow— simple shading & overlapping medium— depth conveyed by ordinary vision far-reaching— panoramic photographs or landscapes

8. space—illusionary space

9. space—illusion of transparency occurs when objects overlap but are still seen in their entirety adds depth but can be confusing

11. space—translucency allows light to pass through, but material is not entirely transparent light is partially blocked things become fuzzy or diffused

12. space—translucency involves using close values of color values are adjusted to impart a softer, less clear visual image

13. space—volume color large volumes of transparent images require additional analysis

14. space—film color What happens to surface color when atmospheric conditions are imposed upon it? film color—light from a door, more intense in the doorway, darker farther

15. space—presentation framing, matting & mounting affects the spatial effects imparted in the work think about effects at beginning of project in order to enhance rather than destroy

16. line—outlining hues remain individual when separated by white or black line

17. line—outlining can add excitement; can define local points blacks tend to deepen, make richer, jewel- like white spreads & washes, lightens & weakens

18. line—color legibility most legible color combinations? black on yellow yellow on black black on white—5 th on the list green on orange—30 th on list

19. form and shape shape—bounded flat area form—three-dimensional simplest method of implying form is shading

20. form and shape highlight light area cast shadow reflected shadow form shadow form shading

21. form and shape—psychological red—squares, cubes, 90-degree angles, structural planes orange—trapezoids, rectangles, sharp or hard images, fine details yellow—triangles, inverted triangles, pyramids, acute or aggressive angles, pointed sharp forms green—rounded triangles, hexagons blue-green—liquid blue—circles, spheres, rounded angles purple—ellipses, ovals, flowing forms

22. texture influences color rougher—darker, absorbs light, seems “warmer” smoother—lighter, reflects light, seems “cooler”

23. light achieved through shading first determine light and dark areas of object where is light source? usually just one study photos and environment to see how light hits objects changing direction of light source greatly alters composition perception

24. light

26. no obvious light source? logical shading—areas closest to us are lightest, farthest are darkest types of lighting: natural light—”white daylight”; ideally north artificial—incandescent; HID; fluorescent; led types of lighting create different effects— Sistine chapel in candle or oil-lamp light?

27. participation activity: elemental compositions …using colored pencils, markers, paper or paint, create 5 different compositions addressing the following topics: illusionary space transparency translucency outlining shading …label each composition according to the topics demonstrated
