Vocab #2

Line: A long, straight mark, cord, band, or wire.
Shape: The outline of a certain object, the way it looks, the way it curves.

Form/Volume: Unlike a shape, the form of an object is connected to its 3D-ness. The form is all the things in a piece of  art that one can see.
Color: Color is determined by how light reflects off of certain objects, causing them to appear colorful.
Value/Tone: This is how light or how dark something is, often referring to color in itself.
Texture:Usually, this refers to how a certain object may feel. However, in art, an artist can portray the way something should feel without changing the actual substance, but just by drawing
Space: This refers to the empty spots and distances between, around, and within objects in an image. It can be both negative and positive.

Perspective: This is a way to show a 3D object in a drawing that is obviously 2D.
