7 Elements of Design:

Line:
Characteristics/
• Width- Thin/Uneven
• Length- Short/Broken
• Direction- All Angles
• Focus- Blurry
• Feeling- Jagged
1. Outlines- The object is not made
by any edge so there for it is
silhouette.
2. Contour Lines- The lines that
describe the picture are the lines
that are in groups to make it look
like an information web.
3. Gesture Lines- The lines around the edges give it an energetic
feeling making me believe it is spreading.
4. Sketch Lines- The picture Gives me the impression that it’s a
galaxy from outer space.
5. Calligraphic Lines- The image does not have anything to do with
beautiful writing. It doesn’t give me an image in my head showing it
was done by flowing hand work.
6. Implied Line- There is no implied lines.

Colour:
This picture shows us four main
colours which are Blue, Red, Green,
and Orange. Two of these are Primary
(Blue and Red) and two are Secondary
(Green and Orange).

This image shows a light reflection

giving an impression on coloured,
glazed glass.
The red and orange show warmth while the blue and green show relaxed
cool breezes with the help of a blue sky background.

Shape:
• Geometric Shapes- Three
circles (one outside, one inside
the rim and one in the middle)
Twenty Two triangles (the
spokes).
• Organic Shapes- No organic
shapes.
• Positive Shapes- The bike
wheel is the positive shape.
• Negative Shapes- A hand and
red background is the only
things other than the positive
shape (bike wheel).
• Static Shape- The wheel looks as if it was resting on the person’s
hand.
• Dynamic Shape- Nothing feels moving or active because the whole
picture looks frozen in time.

Space:
Space is the three-dimensionality of a
sculpture. With a sculpture or
architecture you can walk around
them, look above them, and enter
them, this refers to the space of the
sculpture or architecture.

• Positive Space- The jellyfish

sculpture.
• Negative Space- The
surrounding blue background.
• Picture Plane- The canvas is a
digital layer produced on
computers.
 • Composition- The jellyfish is placed to create left swimming
motion.
• Focal Point- The jellyfish is what the artist wants you to look at first
with its bright colours.

Texture:
Texture is the surface quality of an
object. Texture also refers to the way
the picture is made to look rough or
smooth.

• Real Texture- Shows strong

desert like rough texture all
around the scene.
• Implied Texture- No Implied Texture is added.

Value:
• Tint- Light blue has been
added.
• Shade- Small areas of shade
have been added.
• High-Key- It is used all over.
• Low-Key- Not used at all.
• Value Contrast- Not used.
• Value Scale- Not used.

Form:
Form is the three-dimensionality of an
object.
Different spheres are used to create this picture.
