The first step is learning the rules of composition. When talking about the composition of a work of art, we're not talking about the meaning or message, we're only talking about the physical components. For many great masterpieces, we can't even begin to truly appreciate the meaning until we've examined and talked about the composition. Plus, it's really impressive. Composition in art - essentially the arrangement of visual elements using various principles and techniques. It is often used to describe the overall design of a painting. https://study.com/academy/lesson/composition-in-art-definition-elements.html 4 The Visual Elements The visual elements are the building blocks in painting and comprise of: 1. Line - The visual path that enables the eye to move within the piece. 2. Shape - Areas defined by edges within the piece, whether geometric or organic. 3. Color - The different hues. 4. Texture - Surface qualities which translate into tactile illusions. 5. Tone - essentially a color which is not a pure hue, white or black. 6. Space - The space taken up by (positive) or in between (negative) objects. 7. Depth - Perceived distance from the observer, segmented into the foreground, background and optionally middle ground. The Principles of Art The principles of art are the arrangement of visual elements with consideration to a number of principles (otherwise referred to as the principles of design or organisation). It consists of the following: 1. Rhythm - Creating a visual tempo through the use of repetitive elements. 2. Balance - The arrangement of elements to create a feeling of balance and stability in your painting. 3. Focus- The arrangement of elements to place emphasis on desired areas in your painting. 4. Pattern/Gradation - A gradual change in a certain element to help connect the composition (long lines to short lines, large shapes to small shapes, dark to light tones, etc). 5. Unity - Using similar elements throughout your painting to create a general sense of harmony. 6. Contrast - Using different elements to create interest and variety. 7. Movement - Creating a visual sense of movement in your painting through the placement of elements (for example, short, bold strokes in a painting would give the indication of movement and activity when used in contrast to long and muted strokes). 8. Proportion - The relative size of one element in comparison to another. https://study.com/academy/lesson/composition-in-art-definition-elements.html 5 What I Can Do Directions: Create your own simple art piece that showcase the integration of artistic expression.
