plane   - a flat surface having a direction in space - Stonehenge (circular plane) - towers (vertical plane) - Greek temples (horizontal plane)  
🗑
balance   - harmonious blending of formal elements - simplest form is symmetry - can be achieved through aesthetically satisfying symmetry  
🗑
line   - path traced by moving object - line has no width/volume, just length/direction - perpendicular, converging, intersecting lines create sense of force/counterforce - thin: delicate, weak, unassertive - thick: aggressive, forceful, strong - flat: clam  
🗑
depth   - technique of creating illusion of 3D in 2D image w/ modeling lines (shading/hatching) - nearer objects overlap distant ones - nearer objects larger than distant ones - make base of nearer object closer to lower edge of picture  
🗑
perspective   - aids in the illusion of depth - simplest form: one point perspective
