Color Schemes

 Monochromatic – involves using the same hue but with different gradients of value.
 Analogous – entails the use of three or four adjacent colors in the color wheel.
 Complementary – involves the use of a color and its complement -meaning the color
located opposite of the first color.
 Split-complementary – a close relative to the complementary color scheme. But instead of
using the color’s complement, this scheme uses the two colors adjacent to the complement.
 Triadic– uses three colors that are of equal distance with each other.
 Tetradic – also known as double complementary color scheme, this uses two pairs of
complementary colors.

TEXTURE
Texture is one of the elements of art. Texture is the way something feels when you touch it.
Artists also create the illusion of texture in artworks such as paintings, drawings and prints. It can be
smooth, rough.
This element refers to the feel or appearance of a surface. A. person may describe as actual or
implied. Actual texture can be felt tangibly based on the material that is used for the artwork while
implied texture can be exhibited, for instance, in a painting of fur of an animal.

VALUE
Value is the lightness or darkness of a color. You can get different values of a color by mixing its
shades and tints.
This element refers to lightness or darkness of an area. This is evident in creating shadows for a two-
dimensional object to give an illusion of depth.

SPACE
Space refers to the area that is occupied by an object or a subject, as well as the area
surrounding that object or subject. An illusion of space can still be created in a two-dimensional surface
using perspective. There are two types of perspective: atmospheric perspective, which utilizes the
properties of light and air in depicting the illusion of distance; and linear perspective, which involves the
use of vanishing points and receding hidden lines.

TIME AND MOTION

Movement in the visual arts can either be an illusion or an actual motion. An illusion of
movement is more common in two-dimensional artworks. On the other hand, actual motion is easily
seen in kinetic sculpture that moves with the wind or are vibrating with the surrounding air.
