  1. The Visual Arts Elements COOKING UP SOME ART Created by Mia Arends

  2. ``` Artists, like cooks, need ingredients to make art. These ingredients are called the Visual Arts Elements. They are: SHAPE SPACE FORM TEXTURE COLOR LINE Created by Mia Arends

  3. LINE is the path of a point moving through space. It has direction. Think of a knife cutting vegetables. Can you name the 5 directions? vertical diagonal horizontal zig zag curved Created by Mia Arends

  4. LINE has 2 properties that compare to the ingredients that go into a recipe. Quality, or unique characteristics- each line, like each food, is unique Variation, the large/small, thick/thin and light/dark differences in similar items Created by Mia Arends

  5. is the area made when a line closes on itself. It has 2 dimensions, height and width. SHAPE Shape is important in food, too. It helps us identify, and make decisions about, what we eat. Created by Mia Arends

  6. FORM is a 3-dimensional shape. Name the three dimensions. Height, width, and depth Think of some volumes and forms food comes in. Name the forms of some common cooking pots and pans. Created by Mia Arends

  7. Both shapes and forms have two classes: Precise, mathematical Natural, irregular Geometric Organic Classify the following artworks: Created by Mia Arends

  8. is how things feel or look as if they would feel if touched. Think of it as the way food feels on your tongue. Texture Real texture is what you can actually feel. Simulated or virtual texture is a picture that reminds us of what something feels like. What would these sculptures feel like? Created by Mia Arends

  9. Textures on the computer… …are virtual… Can you describe what these would feel like? Created by Mia Arends

  10. COLOR comes from light and is an electromagnetic wave. We see only part of the spectrum (range of colors) whichoccurs naturally as a rainbow. Created by Mia Arends

  11. Color affects us powerfully. • Foods must be the color we expect… • What happens if they are not? • What happens if we eat in the dark? • Would you trust your other senses? • What are they? • Color describes moods and emotions. • Name a few for each color… • We are affected by room colors, the colors of our clothes, lighting, etc. Created by Mia Arends

  12. Attributes of color • Hue is the pure color’s name. • Name some: (think rainbow) • Intensity is a color’s brightness or dullness. • Value is its lightness or darkness, made by adding white, gray, or black. Created by Mia Arends

  13. VALUE can be shown as the Grayscale, or series of tones having varying proportions of white and black, to give a full range of grays. Created by Mia Arends

  14. Tints, Tones, and Shades • TINTS= mixing white with a color. • SHADES= mixing black with a color. • TONES= mixing gray • with a color. Created by Mia Arends

  15. Starry Night, oil on canvas, Vincent Van Gogh 1889 What is the mood of this painting? How do the colors help create the mood? Created by Mia Arends

  16. Space is the distance or area around and within things. It is like the final form of the food being prepared. This painting by Wayne Thiebaud, Sugar Cones, is in 2-dimensional space. Name the dimensions. Height, width What space does an actual ice cream cone fill? Can you name the 3rd dimension? Depth Created by Mia Arends

  17. Describe the space in this sculpture. 3-D, the air and what you see through the sculpture What element has the artist used with space? Line- the poles and wires Created by Mia Arends

  18. How do artists create the illusion of space on a flat surface? Georges Seurat, The Bathing Place, 1884 Overlapping Relative size Detail and focus Placement in space Shading Perspective Created by Mia Arends

  19. Fill in the blank with Closer or Farther: • Overlapping: What’s in front is _______. • Relative size: What’s smaller is _________. • Detail and focus: What’s clearest is _____. • Placement in space: What’s at top is ______. • Shading: What’s highlighted is _______. • Perspective: We see things in the distance a certain way. Artists use measurements to recreate this, like taking a photo does. Created by Mia Arends

  20. Match the technique to the art. Overlapping Relative size Detail and focus Placement in space Shading Perspective Created by Mia Arends

  21. Just for fun- see how many errors in perspective you can find in Wm. Hogarth’s 1754 woodcut, Perspectival Absurdities. Created by Mia Arends
