LINE (and POINT) - LINE is a stroke that connects two POINTS, varying in width and density. A line might be curvy, straight, wavy, angular, broken or implied. It can be used to create movement with gestural lines and be expressive when strongly or lightly applied.

SHAPE - SHAPE is a 2 dimensional enclosed area that has length and width. Shape is an area that is contained within an implied line or is seen because of color and value changes. Shape can be GEOMETRIC or ORGANIC, and ABSTRACT (simplified, flat shapes of three-dimensional things that we can recognize but which may not look real).

FORM - FORM describes objects that are three dimensional, having length, width, and height (x, y, and z axis)

COLOR - COLOR is the separation of light into bands called the COLOR SPECTRUM (as you might see in a rainbow). We refer to the spectrum in design as the COLOR WHEEL. HUES (colors) are categorized as PRIMARY colors[Red, Yellow, Blue], SECONDARY colors [Orange, Green, and Violet - the blending of Primary colors], and TERTIARY or INTERMEDIATE colors[ mixing Primary and Secondary colors. HUE, VALUE and INTENSITY are the three main characteristics of color.

VALUE - VALUE refers to dark and light, the VALUE SCALE refers to black and white with all the gradations of gray between. VALUE contrasts help us to see and understand a two dimensional design or work of art.

Visual hierarchy refers to the arrangement or presentation of elements in a way that implies importance. In other words, visual hierarchy influences the order in which the human eye perceives what it sees. This order is created by the visual contrast between forms in a field of perception.
