I have a Question for you.
• Write these down and be sure to save room to
answer each one in a complete sentence.
• What is the difference between a circle and a
sphere?
• What is the difference
Between shape and form?
We will discuss then you may
Answer.

Well…
• Definitions (you can but don’t need to write this down…
yet.
• Shape: Definition: (noun) - A shape is one of the seven
elements of art. When defining it within the study of
art, shape is an enclosed space, the boundaries of which
are defined by other elements of art (i.e.:
lines, colors, values, textures, etc.).
• Shapes are limited to two dimensions: length and width.
Geometric shapes -- circles, rectangles, squares, triangles
and so on -- have the clear edges one achieves when using
tools to create them. Organic shapes have natural, less
well-defined edges (think: an amoeba, or a cloud).

3.
Is this a shape?

4.
Is this a shape?

5.
So can we shorten that definition?
• Shape: an enclosed space created by any of
the elements of art. IE
line, color, texture, value.

6.
More definitions.
• Form: (noun) - Form is one of the seven elements
of art. At its most basic, a form is a three-
dimensional geometrical figure (i.e.:
sphere, cube, cylinder, cone, etc.), as opposed to
a shape, which is two-dimensional, or flat.
• In a broader sense, form, in art, means the whole
of a piece's visible elements and the way those
elements are united. In this context, form allows
us as viewers to mentally capture the
work, understand it and attempt to analyze it.

7.
Yay! Or Nah! To form or not to form.

8.
basics
For basically occurs when a shape gets two mores dimensions (height, width, or
depth)

9.
forming simple
• Form: a shape that is not flat. Created by
showing light to dark (gradient, value). Got it
memorized.

10.
Lets try this again
• What is the difference between a circle and a
sphere?
• What is the difference
Between shape and form?

11.
Practice time

12.
Get this memorized.

13.
Now
• Based on what you have learned so far, draw a
cube.
