One more time ... what are the art and design elements...

When we write about our work to turn in we will talk about
what is it - the media
how we made it - the skills
how it uses art elements
how it is composed of design elements
and all together what our experience of it is - mood, feeling or idea.
here is an example

the art elements are
- Line (which can be an edge in 3d),
-value (which can be thickness or weight in 3d),
shape - this is a 2D idea - but there are many shapes on forms.
-form - this is a shape made 3D
-space - all sculpture defines space
-color - on the surface and in the clay itself
-texture - can be actual or visual - as in depth in the glaze
they are like the building blocks of composition

The composition (the artwork put together using art elements)  - can be talked about with the language of Design elements

-Balance
-Contrast
-movement
-emphasis
-Pattern
-Rhythm
-proportion and Scale
-Unity or Harmony.
