    Study Notes

    Elements of Art

    • Elements of art describe various contemporary art forms in the Philippines, representing regions like Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
    • Key elements include space, line, shape, form, color, value, and texture.

    Line

    • Defines shapes, contours, and outlines; suggests mass and volume.
    • Characteristics include:
      • Form: Curved, dotted, broken lines.
      • Direction: Vertical (strength), horizontal (serenity), diagonal (action), curved (gradual change), and circular lines (abrupt change).
    • Types of lines:
      • Outlines: Shape outlines or silhouettes of objects.
      • Contour Lines: Describe the shape and interior details.
      • Expressive Lines: Capture movement and gestures.
      • Sketch Lines: Represent appearance or impression of objects.
      • Calligraphic Lines: Elegant hand-drawn lettering.
      • Implied Lines: Created by a group of objects viewed from a distance.

    Shape

    • Enclosed area defined by lines; two-dimensional with height and width.
    • Types of shapes include:
      • Geometric Shapes: Circles, squares, triangles, etc.
      • Organic Shapes: Nature-derived, free-flowing, and irregular forms.
      • Positive Shapes: Solid forms in a design.
      • Negative Shapes: Space surrounding positive shapes.
      • Static Shapes: Appear stable and resting.
      • Dynamic Shapes: Convey movement and activity.

    Color

    • Perception of light reflected from surfaces; classified into various categories:
      • Primary Colors: Red, blue, yellow.
      • Secondary Colors: Resulting from mixing primary colors (e.g., purple, green, orange).
      • Tertiary Colors: Resulting from mixing primary and secondary colors (e.g., amber, magenta).
      • Analogous Colors: Colors adjacent on the color wheel (e.g., yellow, orange, red).
      • Complementary Colors: Opposite colors on the wheel (e.g., red/green, blue/orange).
      • Monochromatic Colors: Variations of a single color.
      • Warm Colors: Evoke warmth (e.g., yellow, red, magenta).
      • Cool Colors: Evoke coolness (e.g., blue, green, violet).

    Space

    • Refers to distances surrounding objects in a piece; can be positive (enclosed) or negative (surrounding).
    • Perspective techniques help perceive distance:
      • One-Point Perspective: Objects converge at a single point on the horizontal line.
      • Two-Point Perspective: Objects meet at two points on the horizontal line.

    Texture

    • Appeals to the sense of touch; characterized by roughness, smoothness, bumpiness, or slipperiness.
    • Texture influences how surfaces feel in artworks and contributes to visual depth.
