• Do you know that there were several areas in which

These involved their use of color, choice of subject
matter and setting, and technique for capturing light
and conveying movement.
OBJECTIVES
1. identify the different principles of design and the elements of
arts present in the various art movements;
2. appreciate the different principles of design and the details of
arts; and
3. create your artwork by applying the principles of design and
the elements of arts-based on the example of arts.

PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN
• Art can be seen in all aspects of life. It is everywhere. It can be
seen in our surroundings.The popular feeling about art is that it
exists only in concert halls, museums, and art galleries in a world
by itself, which are accessible only to those who can afford to pay
for its enjoyment or to the critics and scholars who take time to
study the art and objects of the art.
WHAT IS IT?
• The word design indicates both the process of organizing
visual elements and the product of that process. It is a
result of our basic need for meaningful order. Some
designs are so well integrated that they have qualities
beyond a mere sum of their parts. Such is said to be
beautiful, interesting, absorbing, or surprising.
• Depicted in his works are the principles of design that
made his work beautiful, fascinating, and expressive.
There are six principles of design: unity and variety,
balance, emphasis and subordination, contrast,
repetition and rhythm, and scale and proportion.
• The visual themes were established with the use of
lines, shapes, and colors.The many figures and the
objects in the complex compositions of Lawrence
formed a unified design through the artist's skillful use
of abstraction, theme, and variation.
ELEMENTS OF ARTS
• Medium and elements together are the materials the
artist uses in creating a work of art.The distinction
between them is easy to see but hard to define.An
element can be known only in some medium, but as
an element, it is independent of the medium
• When we study elements, we consider them with no attention to how we
can come into contact with a work of art.The elements are its qualities or
properties.The seven elements of art are:
1. Line
2. Shape
3. Space
4.Value
5. Color
6.Texture
7. Perspective
•We now look with greater care at the
elements of the visual arts as a kind of
basic language with which the artist's
work.
1. LINE
•The line is our basic means for recording and
symbolizing ideas, observations, and feelings; it is
a primary means of visual communication. Lines
always have direction.They are always active.

VARIATIONS (PREBLE, 1999)
2. SHAPE
• Shape refers to the expanse within the outline of a two-
dimensional area or within the outer boundaries of a
three-dimensional object. It may be geometric, which tends
to be precise or regular (circles, triangles, squares) or
organic, which are irregular, often curving or rounded, and
seem relaxed and more informal.
2. SHAPE
• Most common shapes in the human-made world are geometric,
while most shapes in nature are organic.
• Mass is a physical bulk of solid body material, and it has a
three-dimensional area
3. SPACE
•Space is the indefinable, general receptacle of all
things. It is continuous, infinite, and ever-present.
The visual arts are sometimes referred to as
spatial arts because most of the art forms are
organized in space.
3. SPACE
• Architects are mainly concerned with space.
• With three-dimensional objects such as in architecture and sculpture, one
has to move around to get a full experience of three-dimensional space.
• With two-dimensional works, such as drawings, prints, photographs, and
paintings, the actual space is defined by its edges- usually the
twodimensions of height and width. The illusion of third-dimension in
two-dimensional works is spatial depth.
3. VALUE
•Value refers to the lightness and darkness of
surfaces. It ranges from white to various
grays to black. It can be a property of color
or an independent element color.
3. VALUE
• Chiaroscuro is the use of gradations of light and shade, in
which the forms are revealed by the subtle shifting from light
to dark areas.
• This technique was developed during the Renaissance Period
to create an illusion that figures and objects depicted on a flat
surface appear as they do in the natural light conditions.
3. COLOR
• Color is a component of light, affects us directly by
modifying our thoughts, moods, actions, and even our
health. Color exists only in light, but light itself seems
colorless to the human eye. The so-called "color" is the
effect on our eyes of light waves of differing wavelengths
or frequencies.
