Elements and Principles
of Art and Design
Elements: Value
To show
Line, Shape, Form, SpaceSlide2
Value
“The degree of lightness or darkness in a particular shade of gray or color”
Used to show contrast and light/shadowSlide3
Value
Lines do not exist
in the natural world:
Lines are how our brain translates movement and changes between valuesSlide4
Value to Show Space:
Negative Space
Negative space is the space
around and in between
the subject
More complete understanding of the proportions and positive space of the object Slide5Slide6

Values
High Values: Light
Low Values: DarkSlide9
Pencils: H & B
H = Hard (Light)
B = Black (Bold, dark, Soft)Slide10
Pencils: H & B
8H = Lightest
4H = Lighter
H = LightHB = Neutral
B = Dark4B = Darker8B = Darkest
B = Bold (Dark, Soft)Slide11
Charcoal
Vine & Willow Charcoal
Lighter
Easily manipulated & erasedCompressed Charcoal
Darker: Used for darkest darksDifficult to manipulate & eraseMore permanent
B = Bold (Dark, Soft)
Blenders
Used instead of your hands to blend charcoal for smoother value transitionsSlide12
Value and Light
Light Source
: Direction where light is coming from
Highlights: The brightest areas where the light hits the object directly (High values)
Midtones
:
The areas that receive an amount of light between the highlights and shadows (Middle values)Slide13
Value and Light: Areas of Value
Shadows
: Areas on object that receive the least amount of light (Low values), on the opposite side of the light source
Cast
Shadow
: Dark area on surface
where light is blocked by object (Low values)
Reflected
Light
: Where light reflects
from
surface onto objectSlide14
Drawing Value
Identify and focus on
areas of value
(squint your eyes to find them)-Focus on the values of different planes
(flat surfaces)-Avoid contour lines
-Use at least 7 different values (more are better)
-Achieved
with different techniques (including cross-hatching, blending, etc.)Slide15Slide16Slide17
Hatching and Cross-Hatching:
Using line to create form and value. (This is also part of the elements of
shape, form, value, and texture)Slide18Slide19Slide20Slide21
Value & Contrast
Values are one way give an image more
variety and contrast
Variety & Contrast
makes an image more dynamic, interesting, and distinguishable
Lack of variety and contrast is boring, dull, monotonous Slide22Slide23
