RESOURCES

The Elements of Art and Principles of Design are important for several reasons. First, and most importantly, a person can't create art without utilizing at least a few of them. Secondly, knowing what the elements of art are enables us to: describe what an artist has done; analyze what is going on in a particular piece and to communicate our thoughts and findings using a common language.
