Elements of ART

ELEMENTS OF ART: The visual components of color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value.

Today we are going to concentrate on 

 As an element of visual art, line is the use of various marks, outlines and implied lines in artwork and design. A line has a width, direction, and length. A line's width is sometimes called its "thickness".

 On your paper I want you to take 2 minutes and draw as many different types of lines as you can. GO!

Take a look at these different drawing of lines , did you make any of these lines or did you have totally different types of line? 

Different types of line combined create full forms or images. 

 Look at the object on your table or take something you have in your pocket and place it in front of you. 
Begin drawing it using this contour style. ( your pencil should not leave the paper) 

Blind Contour 

Each of your are going to be drawing a blind contour of either the object on your table or of something you had in your pocket. 

Designing using line

DO NOT START DESIGNING IN THE CENTER!! REMEMBER NO "GOOD" COMPOSITION STARTS WITH THE FOCAL POINT IN THE CENTER.

Think about a theme or subject you would like ALL of your designs to relate to. Ex Ocean, garden etc...
