From the onset and throughout this course, you’ve been introduced to the seven visual elements of art as the basic components of art making. These elements include: line, color, shape, form, value, space, and texture. It is impossible to create a work of art without using at least one of the seven visual elements of art.

Your Week 10 assignment requires you to select a piece of modern art from your textbook that you would like to hang on your wall at home or in your office, and then analyze your selection based on two of the seven visual elements.

To give you a head start on this assignment complete the following:

  • HHello Professor,

The art that I would like to hang on my wall would be something that is very personal to me that I take pride in. It would be an image of my cigar lounge logo. The colors for this piece of art are actually my favorite colors and the black background is a bold appeal to me. My opinion is that black is a color that is very sleek to me. The value that this image brings to me is what I think and represent for my business. I would definitely have this image inside a frame so I can make sure that this art is not damaged and I would be able to pass this down to kids. I want to have the spirit of successful owning and taking of this business as I have done. This would be my way of showing my kids that I care for their well being and I want them to carry the family business on. So having value for something is meaning that you take ownership and pride in this art. No matter what type of art it is. It is showing you that you value and love what this art means.
