1. ART ELEMENTS The “building blocks” of art. The tools by which we make art.

2. LINE Line- A mark made on a surface that has length and direction. Geometric

3. LINE Organic

4. SHAPE GEOMETRIC SHAPES (MATHEMATICAL) SQUARES CIRCLES STARS HEARTS TRIANGLES, ETC. A two-dimensional enclosed area, or object.

5. SHAPE ORGANIC (FROM NATURE)

6. Primary Colors: (Red, yellow, and blue) come from nature. Nothing can be mixed together to achieve these colors. COLOR The quality of light reflected from an object.

7. Secondary Colors: Those colors achieved by a mixture of two primaries. COLOR

8. Tertiary Colors: These colors are created when mixing one secondary and one primary color. These always have 2 names (i.e. blue- violet, red-orange, etc.). COLOR

9. Complementary Colors: Are opposite each other on the color wheel. They look good side by side, but neutralize each other if mixed.

10. COLOR Analogous Colors: Are next to each other on the color wheel.

11. COLOR Cool Colors Warm Colors Warm & Cool Colors

12. VALUE VALUE CAN BE IN COLOR ABOVE: VALUE SCALE (from dark to light) VALUE- THE LIGHTNESS OR DARKNESS OF A COLOR.

13. VALUE TINTS: Color mixed with whiteSHADE: Color mixed with black HUE

14. FORM Three-dimensional shapes or objects. Form can be implied or actual. Implied form

15. Actual Three-Dimensional form FORM

16. TEXTURE The tactile quality of a surface. It can be actual or implied.

17. TEXTURE Implied texture

18. SPACE The illusion of depth & distance. Spatial Planes: Closer objects are lower on the page and larger than objects behind them.

19. LINEAR PERSPECTIVE SPACE Edges and lines appear to converge (come together) at a point in the distance.

20. ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE Colors are darker, warmer, and sharper up close. Farther away, objects appear cooler, lighter, and fuzzier.

21. POSITIVE & NEGATIVE SPACE THE AIRPLANE IS NEGATIVETHE TREE IS POSITIVE

22. CAN BE REVERSED

23. What is overlapping, and what is in perspective?
