Just as all matter is made up of different elements, art is a combination of different elements or building blocks. Artists combine line, shape, form, space, texture, value, and color to produce their work. These elements also help us appreciate, understand, and analyze works of art. LINE: In art, lines aren’t just straight or otherwise; they can also be abstract or implied, or two or three dimensional. Line is the foundation of visual art. SPACE: Space is based on where and how the artist applies all the other elements of art on their work. Space allows artists to set the foreground, middle ground, or background for paintings. TEXTURE: Texture connects with the sense of touch. For artwork that cannot be touched, the artist uses texture to show how something looks like it would feel. COLOUR: Color itself has three elements: hue, value, and intensity. Colors can hold emotion. The meaning of an artwork can drastically change just by playing around with these elements. VALUE: In connection with color, value determines how light or dark color is when used in art. The lightest value of color is white, while the darkest value is black. SHAPE: Shape is the product of closed lines. They are two dimensional and only convey height and width. FORM: When a shape acquires depth, it has form. For example, when a circle has form, it transforms into a sphere.
