BALANCE

As a basic principle of art (specifically of design), the definition of balance refers to the ways in which the elements (lines, shapes, colors, textures, etc.) of a piece are arranged. ​ 

Balance can be symmetrical ("formal"), where elements are given equal "weight" from an imaginary line in the middle of a piece. For the most basic example of symmetry, think of your eyes in relation to either side of your nose.


Balance doesn't necessarily mean symmetry, though. Asymmetrical ("informal") balance occurs when elements are placed
unevenly in a piece, but work together to produce harmony overall.                              http://arthistory.about.com/

SPACE

CLICK HERE: USE OF NEGATIVE & POSITIVE SPACE
Space is an area that an artist provides for a particular purpose. Space includes the background, foreground and middle ground, and refers to the distances or area(s) around, between, and within things. There are two kinds of space: negative space and positive space.

VALUE

Value is one of the seven elements of art.  Value deals with the lightness or darkness of a color.  Since we see objects and understand objects because of how dark or light they are, value is very important to art.  (Remember, drawing and painting is about seeing.)
Value deals directly to light.  We see things because light reflects off of objects and goes into our eyes.  Our mind processes the light and tells us what we are seeing.  Without light, we cannot see anything. In order to draw or paint in a way that creates an illusion of what we normally see, we must fully understand light and how it reacts on surfaces.  Value is the key to the illusion of light.     (TheVirtualInstructor.com)

COLLAGE

Picture
col·lage
kəˈläZH/
noun
  1. a piece of art made by sticking various different materials such as photographs and pieces of paper or fabric onto a backing.
    • the art of making collages.
    • a combination or collection of various things.


FORM

Definition of FORM:
(noun) - Form is one of the seven elements of art. At its most basic, a form is a three-dimensional geometrical figure (i.e.: sphere, cube, cylinder, cone, etc.), as opposed to a shape, which is two-dimensional, or flat.

SHAPE


PATTERN
​
Definition: (noun) - A principle of art - pattern means the repetition of an Art element (or elements) in a work. An artist achieves a pattern through the use of colors (children playing with Legos® know this instinctively).

​

PATTERNS ARE super fun! But what STUDENTS don't know is that they are an essential building block in their understanding about numbers. What starts out in as making pretty designs with patterns eventually leads to skip counting, repeated addition (and therefore multiplication and division), algebraic reasoning, and beyond! So it's important that we provide them with a solid foundation for understanding patterns.

 texture

Picture
Texture is an element of art.  We can learn something from the Three Little Bears!  Goldilocks seems to know a lot about texture: what she likes, what she doesn't, what's too hard, what's too soft, and obviously—what's "just right." This month your child will be experimenting with textures, things that are smooth, rough, soft, hard, or bumpy.   Why not conduct some experiments at home!   Have your child collect an assortment of textures like different fabrics with textures (fleece, burlap, corduroy, felt, silk, satin, lace, wool, cotton, etc.)  Or, a variety of other textures like corrugated material or bubble wrap and talk about the differences in texture.  You could also visit with your child about textures in a photograph.  For example, a magazine picture might show fall decorations on a porch.  The magazine itself is smooth, however, have your child imagine what a pumpkin might feel like.   Ask your child if the pumpkin would feel different than the leaves or even the concrete that it sits on.   Doing this will help introduce your child to using different textures in art.


COLOR

What are the primary colors?  Red, Yellow, Blue.
What are the secondary colors?  Purple, Green, Orange.

line

Let's talk about using lines to create art!   There are all kinds of lines to use in art!   Straight lines, squiggly lines, and polka dots.  There are lines that zig zag, dashes, and lines that look like clouds and even castles.  There are also lines that loop!
