1. Elements and principles book Elements: building blocks of art Principles: you use the elements to create these in your artwork

2. Elements Book Outline (Your name)’s elements book line shape form value color texture space

3. Each Page Copy notes/information about each element on half of the page On the rest of the page, draw examples of the element

4. Line Direction- horizontal, diagonal, veritcal Thickness- thin to thick Quality- curved, zigzag, straight, wavy, looping, swirling, jagged, smooth)

5. Shape (2-dimensional, flat) Geometric (square, circle, triangle) Organic (star, outline of leaf, flower, cloud, etc)

6. Form (3-dimensional, have mass and cast shadows) Sphere Cube Cone Prism- triangular (pyramid) cylinder

7. Value how light or dark something is parts of light- highlight, half tone, base tone, reflected light and cast shadow

8. Color primary- blue, yellow and red secondary colors are made from two primary colors mixed- green, violet and orange intermediate colors- a primary plus secondary (example- blue/green, red/orange) intensity- how bright it is tint- add white a color (sky blue, pink, peach, tan, purple) shade- add black to a color (gray, forest green, navy blue, maroon) complimentary- opposites on the color wheel temperature of color- cool (blue, green and violet) warm (red, yellow, orange)

9. Texture How it looks like it feels (rough, smooth, hard, soft, scratchy, etc) Hatching, cross-hatching, stippling, scrumbling,

10. Space  Positive and negative space Only element that every piece of art includes

11. Principles Book Outline (Your name’s) principles book Unity Proportion Contrast Balance Movement Emphasis repetition

12. Unity  Everything works well together to make the piece feel complete and like it goes well together

13. Proportion  How big or small something is compared to something else

14. Contrast  Using elements to create a significant difference between areas  Areas with a small difference are called low contrast  Areas with a big difference are called high contrast

15. Balance Symmetry- can be cut in half and is the same basic thing on each side Asymmetry- is not the same thing on both sides of the piece but is still balanced (usually a big object balanced by a lot of little objects) Radial- everything goes out from a center point

16. Movement Using elements to draw the viewer’s eye from one place to another in a piece of art

17. Emphasis Using an element to make one area or object standout more than the parts around it. Color is the fastest way to create emphasis

18. Repetition Repeating elements to create unity When repetition is systematic, it becomes a pattern
