1. Visual elements of a image
Objectives:• To understand and use
visual elements of an image.
• To create image and express oneself using and experimenting with the expressive characteristic of the point,the line, the surface and the texture.
Evaluation:• Recognise visual
elements • Use the visual elements
that make up the language of painting, sculpture and architecture.
• Use terms in writing and oral English that relate to the point, line , surface and texture.
1.1. The point and line• The straight line: suggest rigidity, precision and constancy.• Vertical: these are balanced between the sky (above) and teh
ground (below). These express spirituality and elegance.• Inclined: these denote movement, decision and willingness.• Curved: these produce a feeling of movement action and
dynamism.• Radial: these suggest light, explosion and luminosity.• Broken: these lines have a zigzag shape and sharply change of
direction, transmit imbalance, chaos and lack of organization.• Concurrent: all the lines go towards a point or area of
maximun attention. Concentric and spiral lines convey concentration.

1.2 Graphic qualities of the lines
• Direction: every line works as a vector of direction.• Spatial distribution: lines separate planes and spaces,
giving every surface different graphic qualities.• Volume: shadowing allows us to create a three
dimensional volume in two-dimensional spaces.• Depth: on a surface the line gives a scene depth
when it is placed on the diagonal.• Structure: lines organise the space.
1.1.b Lines make up images
Activity
• 1. Draw the contours of the object that appear in the model and the line that separates the vertical plane from the horizontal one.
• 2. Paint the inner surface lines with lines of coloured pencils modulating the line(thicker and darker for more interesting features and thinner for areas of less importance)
