 What I Need to Know

It is indeed true that the arts and crafts of Luzon are uniquely wonderful. The
different attires, fabrics and tapestries, crafts and accessories, and body
ornamentation are truly amazing. The artists’ imagination in crafting their works is
incomparable. The regions in Luzon are proud to show their pieces of arts like inabel
of Ilocos, kain of Kalinga, the wanes and ginaspala wanes of Mountain Province,
bakwat of Nueva Viscaya, Tingguian designs of Abra, Embroidered piňa fabric of Taal,
Batangas, burmay of Ilocos, Bolinao mats of Pangasinan, Labba of Kalinga, Vakul of
Batanes, Bulacan arts and crafts include the singkaban, pastillas wrapper, fire

2 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 What’s In

Before we proceed to our next lesson, let’s have a short review of what you
have learned in the previous module.

Directions: In the first column, write your favorite architecture, sculpture, and
everyday objects from Luzon. Describe your chosen artwork. Write your
descriptions in the 2nd column. Then, write your explanation on what make the
artworks unique. Write your explanation on the 3rd column. Accomplish this in
your activity notebook.

Artwork Description What makes it unique?

Architecture –

Sculpture –

In this module, we will focus on the elements of art as applied in the said
artworks from Luzon. You will learn the elements of arts like line, shape, form, value,
color, texture, and space, as well as their differences among each other and how
artists applied these in their artwork.

The elements of art are the building blocks of all art. Every artwork or art piece
created comprises one or more elements. And of course, you need to know all of this
first.

The first element is line. A mark drawn by any tool that marks as it moves
across a surface. Lines can be: long or short, thick or thin, rough or smooth, dotted,
broken or solid.

Thick and Dotted and

Long and Short Rough and Smooth Broken and Solid
Thin solid

3 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 They can make straight movements, zig-zags, waves or curls. They may be
horizontal, vertical, and diagonal.

Zigzags Waves and Curls Horizontal lines Vertical line

Lines can convey different emotions as well.

Other lines which can be measured, geometric,

directional and angular are called constructive lines. They
tend to appear to be man-made because of their precision.

Expressive lines are found in nature and are very organic.

The next element is shape. Shape is created when a line becomes connected
and encloses space. It is the outline or outward appearance of something. Shapes
are 2 Dimensional (2-D) which means you can measure its height and its width.

There are two basic types of shape: geometric shapes and organic shapes.

Geometric shapes have smooth even edges and are measurable such as
square, circle, triangle, and rectangle.

4 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 Organic shapes have more complicated edges and
are usually found in nature.

The other element is form. A Form is a shape that is 3- Dimensional (3-D)

that has height, width, and depth.

The fourth element is color. Color can add interest and reality to artwork.
These colors are: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet (ROY G BIV).

Color Wheel

There are 3 primary colors: Red, Yellow and Blue

These colors are primary for 2 reasons:

A. They cannot be formed from other mixed colors
B. They make all the other colors on the color wheel

5 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
When you mix 2 primary colors together, you get a secondary color.

For example:

When you mix a primary and a secondary color together you get an
intermediate color.

For example:

Color schemes

Color is divided into groups based on the

way they are placed on the color wheel:

3-4 colors “next-door-neighbors” to each other

create an analogous color scheme

2 colors that are directly opposite each other (going across the
center) create a complementary color scheme.

6 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 A split-complementary color scheme is a harmony of
color and that features a base color and two colors on either
side of its complement.

A Triadic color scheme uses 3 colors that are equally

spaced apart on the color wheel

Colors have temperatures. It is important that you understand the effects of

color in every art piece. Colors can convey emotion and feelings too.

Warm colors are those that have Reds, Yellows and Oranges. Warm colors
seem to advance (or come forward) in an artwork.

Cool colors are those that have Blues, Greens and Violets. Cool colors seem
to recede (or go back into) an artwork.

Color can be described by its Properties: Hue, Intensity, Value.

Hue is the actual color, or the identity of a color.

Intensity is the brightness or dullness of a color.

7 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 Another element is value. Value is the
lightness or darkness of a color. Value makes objects
appear more real because it imitates natural light.
When showing value in a work of art, you will need a
light source. A light source is the place where the
light is coming from, the darkest areas are always on
the opposite side of the light.

Color Value

When you use only one color plus its tints and shades, you are using a
monochromatic color scheme.

A tint is a color plus white.

A shade is a color plus black

Another element is texture. Texture is the way the surface of an object

actually feels. In the artistic world, we refer to two types of texture – tactile and
implied.

Tactile or real texture is the way the surface of an object

actually feels.

Implied Texture is the way the surface of an object

looks like it feels. This is the type of texture that artists use
when they draw and paint.

The seventh element is space. The distance around, between, above, below,
and within an object.

8 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 Positive and Negative space is a way that an artwork is divided. Space is
basically divided into 3 parts: Foreground, Middle Ground and Background.

Space can be shallow or deep depending on what the artist wants to use.

Shallow space is used when the artist has objects very close to
the viewer.

Deep Space may show objects up close but objects

are shown far away too.

Perspective is also a way of showing

space in a work of art. Perspective is when the
artist uses a vanishing point on the horizon and
then creates a sense of deep space by showing
objects getting progressively smaller as they get
closer to the vanishing point. Objects may
overlap as well. When objects are overlapped it
is obvious that enough space had to be in the
picture to contain all the objects that have been
included.

Let’s Proceed
Now, let’s apply your knowledge of the elements of art.

It is easy to say that an artwork is beautiful. You can describe it even in one
glance. But, can you notice every single detail of it? Did you pay attention to the line,
shape, form, value, color, texture, and space?

9 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 This module will teach you to identify, understand and give importance to the
elements of arts.

Learning Objectives

In this module, you will be able to:

1. define the different elements of art;
2. analyze the different elements of arts used in selected arts and crafts of Luzon
(highland / low land);
3. reflect on and derive the mood, idea, or message emanating from the given
artifact or art object; and
4. appreciate the design by differentiating the elements of arts used.

What’s New

Activity 1: ART ATTACK!

Directions: Using the word ART as an image, apply the elements of art in
sketching and coloring it. Draw your artwork in a separate sheet of paper.

1. How was the activity? Was it simple or challenging? Why?

2. How did you apply the elements in your artwork?
3. Now, based on what you have experienced in the art activity, write your own
definition of the following elements of arts.
a. Line
b. Shape
c. Texture
d. Space
e. Value
f. Form

Thank you for accomplishing the task. I hope that you learned the concepts
about the elements of arts. If you really want to appreciate the beauty and
uniqueness of the artworks, you need to have a closer look and examine how the
elements of arts were used in the design.

10 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 This time, let us analyze the different elements of arts used in some of the arts
and crafts of Luzon.

What is It

Here is a picture of Kain, a wrap-around skirt or tapis of

southern Kalinga which is characterized by red stripes and white,
yellow, and black geometrical patterns. The colors used in their
textile have cultural meanings: red signifies bravery; black is for
the soil or land; white is for the flowers of the coffee trees; yellow
for the sand; and green for the mountains. We can see that the
weavers of Kalinga use different kinds of line, shape, color,
texture, value and space in their textiles. These elements of art
make their product finest.

In architecture, here is the illustration of

Tumauini Church, a Roman Catholic Parish Church
of San Matias Apostol in Isabela, Cagayan Valley. It
is made from red bricks ornamented with carvings
of flowers, leaves, scallops, saints, religious
symbols, and other fanciful motifs. It has a unique
cylindrical belfry that looks like a huge wedding
cake because of its design motifs like laces, hearts,
and beads. When we examine this structure, the
elements of art make this church different from the
other churches. The use of straight, curved,
diagonal, vertical and horizontal lines highlighted
the Baroque style of this structure. The choice of
color, shape, texture, form and spaces of different
parts makes the church illustrious.

11 CO_Q1_Arts7_ Module3
 What’s More

Activity 2
Directions: Here are some pictures of the arts and crafts of Luzon. Look at every
single detail of the design and analyze the elements of arts involved. Below are the
questions that you will use as guide for your analysis.

a. How a specific element of arts was used in the design?

b. How a specific element of arts added beauty and uniqueness to the design?
