🎨 What Are the Elements of Art?

The Elements of Art are the building blocks for any kind of artwork. Whether you're into landscapes, still life, portraits or abstracts, you'll use a combination of different elements to create your pieces.

🌟 Today, we’re diving into Color.

Color is a powerful element that artists use strategically to: communicate specific emotions/ideas, create striking visual effects, develop harmony/integration, and bring more of themselves into their work.

Thre 3 properties of color are:
👉Hue: The name of the color (e.g., red, blue, yellow).
👉Value: The lightness or darkness of a color.
👉Saturation: The intensity or purity of a color.

Understanding Color Theory helps artists make deliberate choices that enhance their compositions.
