M.A. - Using the Design Elements in Photography

The Elements of Design:

The easiest way of thinking of the elements of design is to compare them to cooking ingredients. If I was making a pizza, I would need "elements" or ingredients. 

No ingredients. No pizza. You can't make something out of "nothing."

In terms of art, these are the ingredients available to artists to create art.

No elements of visual design. No design/art.

The 7 elements of Design are:

1.  LINE

2.  SHAPE

3.  FORM

4.  COLOUR

5.  TEXTURE

6.  SPACE

7.  VALUE (TONE)

You Task:

Please RESEARCH about your assigned element with your group.
