Positive and negative spaces can also be utilized to determine shape in art. It is important to become familiar with how shapes give shape to the objects and environment around us.įor example, if you look at a book, what shape stands out for you? If you look at a tree with branches and leaves, what shapes come to the fore beyond its three-dimensional form? Shapes are often described in terms of being building blocks we can start an artwork by first drawing the main shapes that will be needed and expanded on and conversely, we can analyze artwork by determining the dominant shapes that compose the subject matter. If there are different shapes utilized it can add variety to the composition, but also offset the harmony if there are too many different shapes. The art principles organize how art elements are applied, for example, if there are several similar shapes arranged in patterns in a painting which, if repeated, can give the composition an overall unity and balance. These are also termed the “principles of design” or “organizing principles”. There are also several art principles, namely, balance, unity, harmony, variety, proportion, scale, rhythm, movement, pattern, and repetition, among others. Shape is one element of art the other art elements are form, space, line, texture, color, and value. In the visual arts, there are art elements and art principles, all of which act as guidelines or tools when creating artworks as well as understanding or analyzing artworks. We will list more shapes in the article below. However, it is important to note that there are multitudes of shapes and forms. When these shapes are created as three-dimensional, they will become spheres, cubes, cuboids, or cones. The more common shapes include circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles, which are shapes we all know and see daily. There are also a variety of shapes that can become forms if they are created as three-dimensional, which can be done by adding other art elements like color or value to create shading or tones to give the idea of three-dimensions. For example, a square is made of four lines and a circle is an enclosed curved line, and so forth. Shapes are flat in appearance due to their two-dimensionality, and they are usually described as “enclosed” lines. Form is three-dimensional, namely, it has a width, length, and height. Shape is based on two dimensions, namely, it has width and length. Shape in art can be better understood when compared with its counterpart, which is form, one of the other art elements. However, let us look more closely at the question of what shape in art is, which includes the main types of shapes to be aware of too. Understanding that shape is an element of art and how it works together with the other art principles provides a broader contextual framework around what it is.
