  1. The Elements of Art: Shape, Form, Space

  2. Shape Form Line Two Dimensional (2 D) length and height One Dimensional (1 D) length Three Dimensional (3 D) length, height, and width

  3. An area that can be measured in two dimensions: length and width. Shape

  4. Geometric Shapes Shapes that can be described using a mathematical formula. Wassily Kandinsky, Geflecht von Oben (Network from Above) 1927

  5. Organic (Free-Form) Shapes Shapes derived from nature. Paul Klee, Landscape with Yellow Birds

  6. Form Objects that can be measured in three dimensions: length, width and height.

  7. Geometric Forms Barbara Hepworth, Family of Man, 1970

  8. Organic Forms Henry Moore, Family Group, 1950

  9. Space The area AROUND an object and the area WITHIN an object.

  10. Positive Space The objects and shapes in an artwork.

  11. Negative Space The empty space around objects in an artwork. 1963 - Sky Above Clouds III, by Georgia O’Keeffe

  12. Point of View Angle at which a viewer perceives an object.

  13. Shading The use of light and dark values to give the illusion of form.

  14. Highlight Areas of white in an artwork which show where light reflects the most.

  15. Perspective A visual system that creates the illusion of depth. Raphael, School of Athens, 1511

  16. Perspective Techniques Overlapping Placing one object in front of another. The fullest shape appears to be closest to the viewer.

  17. Perspective Techniques Size Making some objects larger than others. The largest objects appear closest to the viewer.

  18. Perspective Techniques Placement Putting some objects lower in the picture than others. The lowest objects appear closest to the viewer.

  19. Perspective Techniques Detail Rendering objects with intricate contours and decorations. Objects with the most details appear closest.

  20. Perspective Techniques Atmospheric Perspective The affects of light and moisture in the atmosphere. Faded objects appear farther away than intensely colored objects.

  21. Perspective Techniques Lines that appear to get closer the farther away they are. Converging Lines
