The element and principals of art and design

So, the elements of art are as followed. Line, Color, Space, Shapes, Forms, and Texture.

Jessica Hopper on Youtube is where I get this info from-Understanding the Elements of Art - YouTube

There are many different likes of line, color, space, shape, form, and textures and in the video, she names some for instance for line there are line variation, Contour line, and blind contour to name a few that show that the idea of art isn't just pen on paper but any different ideas and principals that go into just the basic in art.

The principals of design are as stated- movement, asymmetric balance, unity, variety, rhythm, pattern, scale, proportions, emphasis, value contrast and juxtaposition.

Again Jessica Hopper Describes it best on her Youtube channel-Understanding the Principles of Design - YouTube

Just like in her last video there are principals that have multiple ways of looking at thing such as Value contrast with a high value and a low value contracts. One thing I either didn’t learn or forgot about is juxtaposition which as she describes is as adding many different things to show contrast which to me means I can use something like a deck of cards and a stick to show different in an art piece.

She goes into detail on describing these "recipes" of art as she describes them and how they work well with the element of art which again she describes as "ingredient" of art and by learning these two concept and with some practice in my personal opinion anyone can do art though my only warning is to find something take makes you want to get up and work on a piece or else you'll burn out faster than a writer having writers block.
