 INTRODUCTION

This module is written in support of the K to 12 Basic

Education Program to ensure attainment of standards expected of
you as a learner.
This aims to equip you with essential knowledge on
discussing the concept that art processes, elements and principles
still apply even with the use of technologies.

This includes the following activities/tasks.

* Expected Learning Outcome (What I Need to Know )- This
lays out the learning outcome that you are expected to have
accomplished at the end of the module.
* Pre-test ( What I Know )- This determines your prior learning
on the particular lesson you are about to take.
* Review ( What’s In )- This gives you chances to apply what
you already know.
* Presentation ( What’s New -)This presents the new lesson
where in you need to focus your attention carefully.
* Discussion of the lesson ( What Is It ) – This provides you the
important knowledge, principles, and attitude that will help
you meet the expected learning outcome.
* Enrichment Activities ( What’s More )-This is the activity that
you need to perform and allow you to try new things, and
explore and develop interests in the new lessons you have
learned.
* Generalization ( What I Have Learned )- This shows the
learning transfer which gives you the ability to use the skills
that you have learned.
* Application ( What Can I Do )- This is the practice exercises
that helps you apply what you have learned and see what must
be improved.
* Post- Test ( Assessment )- This measures or evaluates your
overall learning and understanding about the module.
With the different activities provided in the module, may you
find out this material engaging and challenging as it develops
your critical thinking skills.

Through the Use of

 What I Need to Know
At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

Discusses the concept that art processes, elements,

principles still apply even with the use of new technologies.

What I Know
To find out what you already know about the topic to be
discussed in this module, take the Pre-test. Write your answer in
your notebook.

Direction: Identify what is being described in each item. Write your

your answer on the blank before each item.

A. Elements of Art
_____ 1. A continuous mark made on a surface by a moving
point.
_____ 2. Consist of hue, intensity, and value.
_____ 3. The lightness or darkness of a color.
_____ 4. An enclosed area defined and determined by other
art elements; 2 dimensional.
_____ 5. A 3-dimensional object; or something in a
2-dimensional artwork that appears to be 3- dimensional.
_____ 6. The distance or area between, around, above, below,
or within things.
Principles of Art
_____ 1. The way the elements are arranged to create a feeling
of stability in a work.
_____ 2. The focal point of an image, or when one area or thing
stand out the most.
_____ 3. A large difference between two things to create interest
and tension.
_____ 4. A regular repetition of elements to produce the look and
feel of movement.
_____ 5. Repetition of a design.
____ 6. The use of differences and change to increase the visual
interest of the artwork.

 What’s In
To refresh you with what you had learned about the lesson,
please answer the activity below.

Activity

Directions: Rearrange the jumbled letters to form the correct word

being described in each sentence. Write the word formed in the blank.
Do it in your notebook.

____________ 1. LNETEMSE ETH FO TAR – The building blocks or

Ingredients of art.

____________ 2. TAR EHT SELPICNIRP FO- What we use to orga-

nize the Elements of
of Art, or the tools to
make art.

 What’s New
Below are different examples of technology and the visual arts that
you as a young learner could learn.

Commercial Art

Logo Designing Using Pixel Art

Page 3 0f 10
 Drawing Using Inkscape

All of these show that art is around you and that art
elements and art principles still apply in new technologies.
When artists apply good design, it results to effective visual
communication which can inform and entertain.

What Is It
Read:

New technologies has a lot of advantages. It is portable. You don’t

need to carry all your art materials or sketchbooks in one big bag or in
different bags. All these materials are part of the features in your
smartphone, tablet, or laptop, which can bring with you wherever you go.
Click on each material and you will discover how versatile they are.
There are different kinds of lines, shapes, and colors to choose from.

 ELEMENTS AND PRINCIPLES OF ART
What’s the difference of the two?

The elements of design can be thought of as the things that make up

an art work (the ingredients).
The principles of a design are ways to organize the elements of
design.
How we apply the principles of designs determines how successful we
are in creating a work of art.
Line- an elongated mark
*Types of Line:
Horizontal/ vertical/ diagonal/ jagged/ smooth/ squiggly/
calligraphic (varying thickness)
Value- using shading to make things look 3D: amount of light (tint) and
dark (shade)
Variety- light -------------> dark
White ----------->black
Colour- reflected light
Types of Colour:
primary (red, blue, yellow)
secondary (purple, green, orange)
tertiary (red- violet, blue- violet, blue-green, yellow- green)

Colour Relationships:
analogous (neighbours; blue & blue-green, yellow & yellow- orange)
complementary (opposites; blue-orange, red-green, purple-yellow)
monochromatic (using tints and shades of one colour)

Shape- a two-dimensional enclosed area

Types of Shape:
geometric (controlled, regular)
organic (natural, free-flowing)
symmetrical (same on both sides)
Form- three- dimensional shape; enclosed volume
Page 5 0f 10
Space- the area an object takes up, or the distance between objects

Types of Space
positive space (filled in)
negative space (empty)

The principles of design are ways to organize the elements of design.

Ex. You can place different colours next to each other to create a
specific effect.
When used well, an artist creates an interesting composition
(arrangement of things)

Balance- spreading things out evenly

Types of Balance:
Formal (symmetrical)
Informal (asymmetrical)
Radial (growing from a centre point)

Contrast- clashing; placing different elements next to each other.

Proportion- comparative size, relative size
Pattern- evenly repeated images
Rhythm/Movement- movement caused by unevenly repeating an
element.
Emphasis/Focus- creating a centre of attention
Unity- matching, harmony, likeness, similarity
Variety- having different types of one element
Composition- the plan, placement or arrangement in an art work.
Composition causes a response from the viewer.

 What’s More
Activity:
Materials: graphing paper, pencil, ruler, coloring materials (colored
pens and pencils, crayons, or water medium
Read and understand the directions:
1. Imagine a drawing or picture you want to make.
2. Using a pencil draw your work on a graphing paper.
3. Remember the simple rules in making a Pixel Art, start coloring
each box of the graphing paper with the color of your choice.
One box, one color. There are no half colored boxes.
4. Be sure the elements and principles of arts were present.
5. Explain the drawing or picture that you have made in 1-5
sentences.
