and Principles Applied in Digital
Art
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to the MAPEH - Arts 6 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on

Elements and Principles Applied in Digital Art!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by

educators both from public and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or
facilitator in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum
while overcoming their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also
aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.
In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them
to manage their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and
assist the learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

For the learner:

Welcome to the MAPEH - Arts 6 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on

Elements and Principles Applied in Digital Art!

The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often
used to depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create
and accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
learner is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant
competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful
opportunities for guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You
will be enabled to process the contents of the learning resource while being an
active learner.

This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

What I Need to Know This will give you an idea of the skills or
competencies you are expected to learn in
the

Notes to the Teacher

The teacher will provide pictures as examples so that the
learner can easily understand what is being discussed in this
module. He/she should also monitor closely the progress of the
child. It is strongly advised that there will be once a week
interaction with the teacher and learner.
 What’s New

Recall lessons on the effective use of the elements of arts, such as color, line,
shape, value, texture, volume, perspective (foreground, mid-ground, and
background), line, etc. likewise, revisit lessons on how you can establish unity and
variety in your work through the application of the principle of art, such as,
balance, contrast, and emphasis. Remember that when you create a picture, you
are directing the show. Make sure that it tells the story you want.
The elements of art are the visual tools that the artist uses to create a
composition.
The principles of art represents how the artist uses the elements of art to
create an effect and to help convey the artist intent.

What is It
How do you appreciate a digital Painting? What are the things you should
consider?

Let us look for these elements and principles in digital art.

PRINCIPLES OF ARTS

Contrast
The arrangement of opposite elements (Light vs. dark,
rough vs. smooth, small vs. large, etc.) in a composition so
as to create visual interest.
Balance
A distribution of visual weight on either side of the vertical
axis. Symmetrical balance uses the same characteristics.
Asymmetrical uses different but equally weighted features.
Emphasis
Used to make certain parts of an Artwork stand out. It
creates the center of the interest or focal point. It is the
place in which an Artist draws your eyes to first.
 Movement
How the eyes moves through the composition; leading the
attention of the viewer from one aspect of the work to
another. Can create the illusion of action.
Pattern
The repetition of specific visual elements such as a unit of
shape or form. A method used to organize surfaces in a
consistent regular manner.
ELEMENTS OF ARTS Rhythm
Regular repetition of, or alternation in elements to create
cohesiveness and interest.

Unity
Visually pleasing agreement among the elements in a
design; It is the feeling that everything in the work of Art
works together and looks like it fits.

Line
A mark made by a pointed tool such as a brush, pen or
stick;
a moving point.

Shape
A flat, enclosed area that has two dimensions, length and
width. Artists use both geometric and organic shapes.

Color
Is one of the most dominant elements. It is created by light.
There are three properties of color; Hue (name), Value
(shades and tints), and intensity (brightness).
Value
Degrees of lightness or darkness. The difference between
values is called value contrast.

Form
Objects that are three-dimensional having length, width and
height. They can be viewed from many sides. Forms take up
space and volume.
 Texture
Describes the feel of an actual surface. The surface quality
of an object; can be real or implied.

In digital painting shown below, for example, the artist placed the subject far
but drawn at the viewer’s eye level and center. Trees on both sides of the frame help
the viewer to concentrate his/her gaze to where it is supposed to be. The artist also
used varied sizes and height of the trees, added textures, and limited the number
of colors to create a simple and unified painting. These elements and principles of
art still matter even in digital art.
