SPATIAL (VISUAL)
ARTS
SPATIAL ARTS
It is how something is viewed in
relation to another object. Kind of
like spacing things out and
proportions. If you have good spatial
skills then you are usually good at
art because you are able to draw
things well in relation to other
objects in your art or real life
objects.
VISUAL ARTS
 Art forms that create works that are primarily
visual in nature, such as ceramics, drawing,
painting, sculpture, printmaking, design, crafts,
photography, video, filmmaking and
architecture
GRAPHIC ARTS
 It is a type of fine art that covers a broad range
of art forms. It is typically two-dimensional and
includes calligraphy, photography, drawing,
painting, printmaking, lithography, typography,
serigraphy (silk-screen printing), and bindery.
Graphic art also consists of drawn plans and
layouts for interior and architectural designs.
PLASTIC ARTS
 These are art forms which involve physical
manipulation of a plastic medium by molding or
modeling such as sculpture or ceramics.
Materials for use in the plastic arts, include
those that can be carved or shaped, such as
stone or wood, concrete, or metal
PAINTING
 It is the practice of applying pigment suspended in a
medium and a binding agent to a surface such as paper
, canvas or a wall. However, when used in an artistic
sense it means the use of this activity in combination
with drawing, composition and, or, other aesthetic
considerations in order to manifest the expressive and
conceptual intention of the practitioner. The medium is
commonly applied to the base with a brush but other
implements, such as paint, sponges, and airbrushes.
Painting is also a mode of creative expression.
BASIC ELEMENTS
IN
PAINTING
• INTENSITY
 It takes a look at how bright or dull a color is.
• COLOR AND TONE

 Every color can produce a variety of tones; how light
or dark these are depends on the color. It is
important to realize that tones are relative, that how
dark or light they seem depends on what's going on
around them. In other words, if a painting is going to
be successful, you must get your tones right,
otherwise it's just going to be visual noise.
• STYLE AND TEXTURE
 Texture in painting is a difficult element to define.
Texture does not just refer to the roughness of
smoothness of a work of art, but also to the subtle
gradations of surface difference, from the quality of
the brushstrokes to the addition of foreign element
into the work of art. The most exciting aspect of
texture is that, when used carefully, it adds to the
meaning and depth of an artwork. On the other
hand, if texture is used inharmoniously, then it can
become a negative factor. The best way to
understand texture in painting is to experiment.
• MEDIA
 It is the different methods and materials used
in painting. Examples are Canvas, brushes,
paint, and so forth.
• LINE
It is referred to as a continuous mark, made on a
surface, by a moving point. A line is long relative to its
width. It can define a space, create an outline or
pattern, imply movement or texture and allude to mass
or volume. It is absolutely essential in creating art.
• FORM
 Form in art, is the whole of a piece's visible
element and the way those elements are united.
At its most basic, a form is a three-dimensional
geometrical figure, two-dimensional, or flat.
• LIGHT AND SHADOW

 Without sunlight, there is no shadow, and
both must be considered simultaneously in
a painting.
• VALUE
 It refers to the lightness or darkness of a

color. Value becomes critical in a work which
has no colors other than black, white, and a
gray scale. For a great example of value in
action, think of a black and white photograph.
You can easily visualize how the infinite
variations of gray suggest planes and
textures.
COMMON MEDIUM USED
COMMON
MEDIUM USED IN
VISUAL ARTS
MOSAIC
 The art of creating images with an assemblage of
small pieces of colored glass, stone, or other
materials.
• PASTEL
 A Pastel is an art medium in the form of a stick,
consisting of pure powdered pigment and a
binder.
• WATERCOLOR
 The paints are made of pigments suspended
in a water-soluble vehicle.
• INK
 Ink is a liquid or paste that contains pigments
or dyes and is used to color a surface to
produce an image, text, or design. Ink is used
for drawing or writing with a pen, brush, or
quill.
*FRESCO
*OIL
*CRAYONS
*CHARCOAL
• TEMPERA
 It also known as egg tempera, is a permanent,
fast-drying painting medium consisting of
colored pigment mixed with a water-soluble .
• ACRYLIC
 A fast-drying paint containing pigment

suspended in an acrylic polymer emulsion.

PRESENTING AN
ART SUBJCT

• ABSTRACT
• IMPRESSIONISM
• EXPRESSIONISM
• CUBISM
• SURREALISM
• REALISM

• ELONGATION
• DISTORTION
THE COLOR WHEEL
PROPERTIES OF COLOR
 HUE- The name of a color starts by identifying
which of the twelve colors on the color wheel
corresponds most closely to it, regardless of how
light or dark, or bright or dull it is. In painting
color theory, a hue refers to a pure color—one
without tint or shade .
 VALUE- This is determined by how dark or light
the color is
 INTENSITY- Intensity takes a look at how bright
or dull a color is.
POPULAR ARTS
 Popular Art also known as pop art. The

material is usually removed from its
own known context, isolated, or
combined with unrelated materials.
The concept of pop art refers not as
much to the art itself as to the
attitudes that led to it.
DECORATIVE ARTS
 The decorative arts is traditionally a term for the
design and manufacture of functional objects.
FINE ARTS
 Arts that is being exhibited or admired.
INTERIOR DESIGN
 Interior design describes a group of various yet
related projects that involve turning an interior
space into an "effective setting for the range of
human activities" that are to take place there.
An interior designer is someone who conducts
such projects. Interior design is a multifaceted
profession that includes conceptual
development, liaising with the stakeholders of
a project and the management and execution
of the design.
PHOTOGRAPHY
What then make photography an art? Like a painting, a photograph may
be considered an art if it possesses the following attributes:
1. Subject - What is it about? What particular topic does it show? Convey?

This leads us to the theme.
2. Theme - What does the photo mean? What is its underlying meaning?
What is the interpretation of the viewer? In short, what is the message.
3. Message - With the subject and theme provided, what does the artist
wish to convey? Does it tell a story, or just present a situation or scene?
Is the message concrete or is it abstract?
4. Perspective - The eye moves and searches. Where is the focal point?
Where do the lines converge? Is the vantage point at the foreground or
background? Is the perspective
diagonal, inverted V-shape, X-shape, parallel? To fully appreciate the
perspective, take note of contrast - light and shadow, and contrast
among colors.
5. Contrast - Here light and shadow show contrast. So with cool and
warm colors. If the lines are bold the figures appear distinct. Are the
lines parallel and repetitious? Or, do they cross? What time of the day
was the photo taken?
6. Colors - The use of colors in today's photography is important.

Seldom is black-and-white used now. As a rule, the clearer and
distinct the colors are, the better is the photograph. But there should
be harmony.
7. Harmony - This means unity of parts. Every part is integral to the

whole photo. As a result the photo exudes - like music - a fine tune of
colors and lines, shade and light, and finally, balance.
8. Balance - Be sure the photo is not heavy or light at any side. The
eye is not trained at a particular part. Symmetry is the key. Even
assymtrical subjects can show balance. Imagine an
enlarged amoeba, a shapeless one-celled creature.
Photography sessions under an expert are a must for
those who engage in photography as a hobby.
Workshop with modern photography tools and
equipment are likewise a must. It taps talent and
hones it with the touch of art. In the process, a
person becomes trained as an artist-photographer -
and subsequently, and artist himself.
Art lies in the person behind the camera - not the

camera preserving how modern and sophisticated it
may be.
ARCHITECTURE
 "Architecture" can mean:
 A general term to describe buildings, the art and science
of designing, the style and method of design and
construction of buildings and other physical structures.
 The practice of the architect, where architecture means
the offering or rendering of professional services in
connection with the design and construction of
buildings, or built environments.
 The term "architecture" has been adopted to describe
the activity of designing any kind of system, and is
commonly used in describing information technology.
SCULPTURE
 It is the branch of the visual arts that operates
in three dimensions, and one of the
plastic arts.
