EOA Art Panel Collection

the Elements of Art:

the very most basic things we use to create art. Consider these the "Ingredients" for cooking art (ex. Herbs, Meats, Veggies, etc..) These are put together or "cooked" into an art piece by using the Principles of Design (which are how we arrange these basic elements into a composition/ art piece that is thoughtfully designed. We'll go into the Principles of Design a little later)-

For this project you will draw a collection of 7 panels, with each panel illustrating a single element of design (Line, Shape, Form, Space, Color, Value, & Texture). Your panels do not have to connect, they can be on separate pages.

Size: 2 panels per small piece of drawing paper works well (you will use 4 pages).

Suggested Materials: Pencil, Color Pencil, Watercolor, Ink, or Digital

Instructions

Step 1: Choose a simple silhouette you can easily repeat (a Silhouette is the outline shape of an object, like the shape of a shadow). Draw this Silhouette one each of your 7 panels

Step 2: LINE Panel- Using only lines, illustrate your silhouette. Show a variety of lines, diagonal, curly, wavy, zigzag, parallel, dashed, etc… Take a Photo.

Step 3: COLOR Panel- Create a color scheme using your silhouette. You can showcase Warm Colors, Analogous Colors, Complimentary Colors, Monochromatic Colors in your panel. Label your color scheme on the bottom of your panel. Take a Photo.

Step 4: VALUE Panel- Turn your 2D silhouette into a 3D form by shading with either a pencil or Prisma color. Show light, medium and dark tones in your work. Take a Photo.

Step 5: TEXTURE Panel- Create texture in your panel. Remember, Texture is something you can see and feel so there a variety of options to create texture, either by illustrating it or actually creating the texture using construction paper or other materials. Take a Photo.

Step 6: SHAPE Panel Using only 2D shapes, recreate your silhouette. Use Geometric and Organic shapes to create an interesting composition using only shapes. You find it easier to actually cut out shapes with construction paper and form their silhouette like a puzzle while others prefer to illustrate. It is ok for this panel to look a bit abstract! Take a Photo.

Step 7: SPACE Panel-Showcase Background, Middle Ground and Foreground in your panel. Overlap is the key technique here! Take a Photo.

Step 8: FORM Panel- Using only 3D forms, illustrate your silhouette. Take a Photo.

Step 9: Add all 7 of your photos to the assignment here in canvas and submit.
