Form: An element that appears three dimensional and encloses volume; such as a cube, sphere,

pyramid, or cylinder.

Color: An art element with three properties: hue, value, and intensity

Line: An element of art used to define space, contours, and outlines, or suggest mass and volume.

It may be a continuous mark made on a surface with appointed tool or implied by the edges of

shapes and forms.

Value: An element of art concerned with the degree of lightness of colors

Principles:Balance: Refers to the arrangement of visual elements to create stability in an art work. (4

arrangements in art: Asymmetrical, Symmetrical, Approximately Symmetrical, and Radial).

Contrast: Refers to differences between elements such as Color, Texture, Value, and Shape.

Emphasis: One element, or combination of elements, creates more attention than anything else in a

composition. The dominant element is usually a focal point and contributes to unity by suggesting

Movement: Associated with Rhythm, referring to the arrangement of parts in an artwork to create

sense of motion to the viewers eye through the work.

Pattern: The repetition of elements or combinations of elements in a recognizable organization.

Color Vocabulary

Primary Colors- red, yellow, and blue. Mix these pigment colors to produce the rest of

the colors. (Magenta, cyan, and green are the primary colors when mixing light such as

on a computer.)

Secondary colors green, violet, and orangeare made by mixing two primary colors.

Tertiary or Intermediate colors- yellow-green, blue-violet, blue-green, red-violet, red-

orange, yellow-orange are made by mixing a secondary color with an adjacent primarycolor.

Tint: a hue that has been mixed with white

Tone: a hue that has been mixed with black and white

Shade: a hue that has been mixed with black

Color SchemesComplementary: colors opposite each other on the color wheel such as red and green or

yellow and violet.

Warm colors: colors such as red, orange, and yellow, suggest warmth or heat

Cool colors: colors such as blue, green, or violet, that remind people of cool places,

things, or feelings.

Neutral: colors such as black, white, gray, or brown, that is not associated with the

spectrum

Monochromatic: the range of values of one color

Analogous: colors that are next to each other on the color wheel; the colors have a

common hue such as red, red-orange, red- violet.

Split complementary: a color and the two colors on each side of its complement, such

as yellow, with blue-violet and red-violet.

Triad: and three colors spaced equal distance from each other on the color wheel, such

Monochromatic Color SchemeComplete this page with Prisma Colors

Monochrome means onecolor. A monochromatic color scheme is a colorscheme that uses only one hue and the values, tints and shades of that hue. For

example, green. You can add white to the green to make it lighter, or add black to

green to make it darker. But no other colors can be used, green, white and black.Orange would be orange, white and black.

Practice: Use one color of your choice, and add white to make it

lighter, and black to make it darker. *hintI would color the whole box

lightly with the color you choose, then add white to one end, and black

to the other.

Dark -------------------------------------------Light

Now color each sphere below using a differentmonochromaticcolor

scheme. Be sure you color the shadow as well. Note: Shadows are not done incolor!

Clay

54

The Ten Golden Rules of Ceramics

1. Clay must be thoroughly covered up with a plastic bag to keep it

from drying out. This applies to works in progress and moist

clay.

2.Clay dust can be harmful if you are exposed to it for long

periods of time, so keep your area clean, clay scraps off the

floor and clean with water and a sponge.

3.Clay can be no thicker than your thumb.

4.In order for clay to stick together it MUST be scored and

slipped together while the clay is moist or leather hard.

5.Wedge clay to remove air bubbles, achieve uniform consistency,

and to line up the particles of clay.6.Trapped air can cause clay to explode. So hollow out sculptural

forms and put needle holes from the bottom so air can escape.

7.Don't glaze the bottom of a piece.

8.Always wash the piece before glazing.

9.Always handle your project with two hands at all times. In other

words BE CAREFUL its your hard work. Never lift pots by the

rim.10. NEVER HANDLE ANOTHER PERSONS

WORK EVEN IF IT LOOKS COOL
