Principles and elements of drawing

  • Composition –
  • Elements of art – group of aspects of a work of art used in teaching and analysis, in combination with the principles of art. They are texture, form, line, color, value, and shape.
  • Perspective – the principle of creating the illusion of 3-dimensionality on a 2-dimensional source such as paper. This is achieved by using one or more vanishing points (Line perspective), or making the atmosphere greyer, blurrier and smaller as it goes further back (Atmospheric perspective).
  • Principles of art – set of guidelines of art to be considered concerning the impact of a piece of artwork, in combination with the elements of art.[1][2] They are movement, unity, harmony, variety, balance, emphasis, contrast, proportion, and pattern.
