    Study Notes

    Line in Art

    • Lines are extensions of points, creating a visual pathway.
    • They play a crucial role in creating shapes, forms, textures, values, and directional sense.
    • Lines are fundamental elements of art.

    Types of Lines

    • Straight Lines: These lines do not bend and can be vertical, horizontal, or diagonal.
    • Curved Lines: These lines bend and vary in form, including concave, convex, wavy, and curly lines.

    Landscape Sketching

    • Landscape sketching involves the representation of natural or manmade scenes.
    • Sketches can incorporate various elements like foreground, middle ground, and background for depth.
    • Landscapes can be depicted using colors and shapes to showcase different elements of the scene.

    Color Schemes

    • Complementary Colors: Colors positioned opposite each other on the color wheel, producing high contrast.
    • Triadic Colors: Three colors equally spaced on the color wheel, creating a balanced color scheme.
    • Tetradic Colors: Two pairs of complementary colors, creating a diverse contrast.
    • Analogous Colors: Colors adjacent to each other on the color wheel, often seen in nature.

    One-Point Perspective

    • Horizon Line: The eye-level line in a one-point perspective drawing.
    • Vanishing Point: The point where lines disappear in a one-point perspective drawing.
    • One-point perspective creates the illusion of depth by using converging lines to represent receding objects.

    Harmony and Rhythm in Art

    • Harmony: A principle of art illustrating oneness in a work of art. This is achieved through the arrangement of elements like colors, shapes, and lines.
    • Repetition: Repeating elements in a piece of art.
    • Proximity: Closeness of elements in an artwork.
    • Rhythm: The visual movement that guides the viewer's eye in a piece of art.

    Sketching Techniques

    • Sketching: A preliminary drawing used as a draft for a final artwork.
    • Plein Air: Outdoor sketching or painting.
