These elements are the building blocks used to create art. 14 Space In visual art, space pertains to emptiness, which may be positive space or negative space. Positive space refers to the part that is enclosed in a shape, while negative space refers to the opposite part that the shape is enclosing. 15 Line In visual arts, line is a series of points that may have two characteristics: form (curved, dotted, or broken) direction (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal) Zigzag Line Various Types 16 Shape and Form Shape is formed by connecting both ends of a line. It is a two- dimensional figure with length and width. Form is three-dimensional: it has the same dimensions as a shape except with added depth and Elementary Form therefore does not feel flat. 17 Color Color is associated with the natural phenomenon in our environment. When light bounces off an object and reaches our eyes, we perceive color. Color may have lightness or darkness, or coolness or warmth.

This means adding multiple elements to break the artwork’s monotony and make it more interesting. 27  Movement Movement is a basic principle of nature and is associated with the environment. In visual arts, an artwork has movement when it incorporates the passage of time, even in an illusory manner. Claude Monet (1840) 28 Rhythm It refers to the repetition of certain elements to produce a pattern. In visual arts, repeated design elements may create a certain flow and lead the viewer’s eyes. 29  Balance It refers to the even distribution of elements. There are two types of balance in visual arts: a. Informal balance or asymmetrical – when the designs are not equally distributed b. Formal balance or symmetrical – when the weight of the designs is equally distributed 30  Emphasis and Subordination Emphasis is a principle that may refer to the greater impact given on a certain element. Subordination serves as the opposite of emphasis as it refers to how certain elements supplement the emphasized elements in a design. 31 32 33 34 ART Both elements of art and principles of design are important in art composition. These concepts bring life to the creation of art. Artists with an understanding of these concepts always produce impactful art and deliver effective messages to their audience. Some may not be as talented as others, but every talent can be developed. Skills can be acquired through consistent practice and application of knowledge. 35
