2. Lines.
1. is the most basic art and design element
2. is the simplest and most fundamental form of communication
3. has length , tone, and texture.
4. may divide space, define a form, describe contour, suggest direction.
A line is a dot that went for a walk." - Paul Klee.
3. ypes of line
STRAIGHT LINE
T
STRAIGHT LINE: A line traced by a point traveling in a constant direction; a line of
zero curvature;
“The shortest distance between two points is a straight line"
CURVE LINE
4. CURVE LINE:
A line which is not straight with no sharp edges is called a curve. It
is a smoothly flowing line. In mathematics, straight line is also
called as curve.
6. Plane
• a surface generated by a straight line moving at a constant
velocity with respect to a fixed point.
• a longitudinal section through the axis of a column.

8. Horizontal plane
Base plane:
• Seems to be figured out when there is a perspective change in color and texture
• With edge definition
• With surface attraction
Elevated plane:
• Edge will well defined
• Visual spatial continuity interrupted

9. Depressed plane:
• Vertical surface of depression establishes boundaries
• By contrasting form, geometry or orientation
Overhead Plane:
