Art tip #3 -The elements of Art
The elements of art are the building blocks of every artistic piece. They include line, space, color, shape, texture, form, and value.
I'll give you a quick run down of each, then do a post about each specifically.
Line: The sweet caress of an affectionate pencil across the waiting cheek of a paper. Their star-crossed romance can be simple or complex, or even imagined, so each drawing is like a soap opera.
Space: Has nothing to do with UFO's. Space is an area. Usually people are talking about an open area. Like the space between politicians promises and their intentions.
Color: You gonna make me get technical? Color in art is frequencies of light fairies dancing across your page. Depending on what jig they dance, your piece can look dramatically different.
Shape: A shape is a closed line. Not like when you show up to the movies when they're shutting down for the night. It's when a line connects with itself, or at least looks like it does.
Texture: The way something feels. Or how it looks like it feels. Used in a sentence, “ the texture of Jeggings is a lie".
Form: Forms are just three dimensional shapes. It’s like if a square ate a taco, and gained a pound. Now it’s a cube and it loves its body. Cubes are notoriously comfortable with themselves.
Value: How light or dark something is. Like most art, it works opposite to society; the darker something is, the more value it has.
I hope you learned a lot in this very informative art tip. Stay hardy people.
