| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| line (elements) | any continuous mark on a page in a specific direction; the notion of direction and movement in a composition |

| space (element) | area in and around an object, either positive or negative |
| form (element) | a three dimensional shape that encloses space and has volume |
| value (element) | the lightness or darkness of an area; value gradation creates illusion of three dimensions on a flat surface |
| color I.II. (element) | character of surface derived from the response of viewing light reflected from the surface |
| I. tone (element) | arrangement of color scheme; involving hue, value, and intensity relationships |
| II. color wheel (element) | circular arrangement of hues based on color theory |
| texture (element) | expresses the tacticle quality of a surface in two dimensions by using other elements; translates difference in smoothness or roughness into a 2D illusion |
| emphasis (principle) | developing point or areas of visual interest;directing the viewers eye - "importance by contrast" |
| unity/harmony | all parts relate to each other, one-ness, uncomplicated sense of cohesion by combining similar elements |
| variety | contrasting values, shapes, or textures for interest and uniqueness offset of harmony |
| movement | shows action by moving the viewers eye toward or away through the piece; using focal points and direction of line |
| rhythm | movement through repetition of any element, alternating values, and patterns |
| proportion | relationship in size of objects or between parts of one object, stress by enlarging, distorting, or exaggerating elements |
| balance | sense of stability, repeating similar shapes; equal weight among shapes. informal/asymmetrical (shapes relating to shape) |
