Scale and Proportion  The word design indicates both the process of organizing visual elements and the product of that process. It is a result of our basic need for meaningful order.  Some designs are so well integrated that they have qualities beyond a mere sum of their parts. Such are said to be beautiful, interesting, absorbing, or surprising. A. UNITY AND VARIETY  Unity refers to the appearance or condition of oneness of an artwork.  All the elements such as line, color, texture, and others belong together that result in having a coherent and harmonious whole.  As variety provides diversity yet it acts as counterbalance to extreme unity.  The Immigration Going Home, Series, Jacob Jacob Lawrence Lawrence  B. BALANCE  Balance is the condition in which acting influences are held in check by opposing forces or what is in the left side should appear on the right side also in order to achieve equilibrium.  B. BALANCE  The near or exact matching of left and right sides of a three-dimensional form or a two-dimensional composition is called symmetrical balance.  Two sides which are not the same is asymmetrical balance.  The Evening Glow Chariot, Alberto Of The Ando, Giacometti Suzuki Haranobu  C. EMPHASIS AND SUBORDINATION  To draw our attention to an area or areas, the artist uses emphasis. To create emphasis, position, contrast, color intensity, and size can all be used.  Neutral areas of lesser interest are created by artist through subordination to keep us from being distracted from the areas of emphasis  Yacht Approaching the Coast, Joseph Mallord William Turner  D. CONTRAST  The juxtaposition of strongly dissimilar elements is called contrast.  Dark set against light, large against small, bright colors against dull are examples of contrasts.  Visual experience becomes monotonous without contrast.  Contrast can be seen also in the thick and thin areas of a single brushstroke.  Luster-Painted Bowl Spain.

REPETITION AND RHYTHM  The repetition of visual elements gives a composition of unity, continuity, flow, and emphasis.  Rhythm in the visual art, is created through the regular recurrence of elements with related variations. The Maestà, or Maestà of Duccio, Duccio di Buoninsegna  F. SCALE AND PROPORTION  Scale is the relation of one thing to another. It is one of the first decisions an artist makes when planning a work of art.  Proportion is the size relationship of parts to a whole. ZAPATISTAS, Jose Clemente Orozco  Elements of Arts  The seven elements of art are:  1. Line  2. Shape  3. Space  4. Value  5. Color  6. Texture  7. Perspective  LINE  Line is our basic means for recording and symbolizing ideas, observations, and feelings; it is a primary means of visual communication.  Lines always have direction. They are always active.  a. Actual Line  b. Implied line and implied curved line  c. Actual straight lone and implied curved line  d. Line created by an edge  e. Vertical line (attitude of alert attention); horizontal line (attitude of rest)  f. Diagonal lines (slow action, fast action)  g. Sharp jagged lines  h. Dance of curving lines  i. Hard line; soft line  j. Ragged, irregular line  SHAPE  Shape refers to the expanse within the outline of a two-dimensional area or within the outer boundaries of a three-dimensional object. It may be geometric which tends to be precise or regular (circles, triangles, squares) or organic which are irregular, often curving or rounded and seem relaxed and more informal. Most common shapes in human-made world are geometric while most shapes in nature are organic.  Mass in Three- Mass in Two- Dimension Dimension Mass is a physical bulk of a solid body material and it has a three-dimensional area.

It is continuous, infinite, and ever present.  The visual arts are sometimes referred to spatial arts, because most of the art forms are organized in space.  Architects are especially concerned with space.  With three-dimensional objects such as in architecture and sculpture, one has to move around to get a full experience of three- dimensional space.  With two-dimensional works, such as drawings, prints, photographs, and paintings, the actual space is defined by its edges- usually the two-dimensions of height and width. The illusion of third-dimension in two-dimensional works is spatial depth. Diagrams of clues to Spatial Depth in two-dimensional surface (Preble, 1999):  VALUE  Value refers to the lightness and darkness of surfaces. It ranges from white to various grays to black. It can be a property of color or an element independent color.  Chiaroscuro is the use of gradations of light and shade, in which the forms are revealed by the subtle shifting from light to dark areas.  This technique was developed during the Renaissance Period to create illusion that figures and objects depicted on a flat surface appear as they do in the natural light conditions.  COLOR  Color is a component of light, affects us directly by modifying our thoughts, moods, actions, and even our health.  Color exists only in light, but light itself seems colorless to the human eye. The so called “color” is the effect on our eyes of light waves of differing wavelengths or frequencies.  Properties of a Color  Hue is particular wavelength of spectral color to which we give name. In 1666, British scientist Sir Isaac Newton discovered that when the light of the sun passes through a glass prism. It is separated into the bands of colors that make up the visible spectrum. The sequence of the spectral colors is: red, orange,yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.  - Primary Hues are: Red, Yellow, and Blue  - Secondary Hues: Orange, Green, and Violet. This are produced by the mixture of primary hues.  - Intermediate Hue are red-orange, yellow- green, blue-green, and red-violet. Each are located between the primary and the secondary hues of which they are composed. Color Wheel  Colors affects our feelings about size and distance as well as temperature.  Yellow-green and red-violet are the poles dividing the color wheel into cool and warm hues.  Cool colors found at the blue-green side of the wheel, while the warm colors at the red- orange side, appear to expand and advance.  Objects that appear to be black absorbs all the colors; while objects that appear white reflects all the colors of the spectrum.  Black and white are not true colors and their combination, gray is achromatic and they are often referred to as neutrals.  Value refers to the relative lightness and darkness from white through grays and black.  Intensity also called saturation, refers to the purity of a hue or color. The pure hue is the most intense form of a given color; the hue at its highest saturation; and the hue in its brightest form.  TEXTURE  The textile qualities of surfaces or to the visual representation of those qualities is referred to as texture, in visual arts.  Actual textures are those we can feel by touching. Simulated textures are those created to look like something other than plain on a flat surface.  Painters simulate texture, while sculptors and architects make use of actual texture.  PERSPECTIVE  Perspective is point of view. In visual arts, it can refer to any means of representing three dimensional objects in space on a two- dimensional surface.  It is a system designed to depict the way objects in space appear to the eye. In linear perspective objects appear smaller at a distance, because parallel lines appear to converge as they recede into the distance, and the last meeting of the lines on the horizon is called vanishing point.  TIME AND MOTION  - Time is nonspatial in which events occur in succession. Our experience of time depends upon the movements we experienced and vice versa. A sense of motion can be created by actual change in position.  LIGHT  - The source, color, intensity, and direction of light greatly affect the way things appear; as light changes, surfaces illuminated by it also appear to change. To suggest the way light reveals form, artists use changes in value.  What elements? Write the element that best describe the image you are going to see. What Elements? What Elements? What Elements? What Elements? What Elements?  Activity 1.2  Choose any object in the Classroom.
