identified or drawn using lines.A shape may be based on
natural or living forms.
Color
- This refers to visual perception that allows a person to

it can communicate information and emotion to the
viewer.Color has three properties, which are as follows:
-Hue, which refers to the basic or pure color, and is
represented in the color wheel.
-Value, Which refers to the lightness and darkness of color.A
light color or tint is the result of adding white to a hue, while
a dark color or shade results from adding black to a hue.
-Saturation, Which refers to brightness and dullness of
color.It is also referred to as purity of the color. A bright
color can be produced by adding more pigment to the same
hue,while a dull color can be produced by adding gray or the
color’s complement to the pigment.

same hue but with different gradient of value.

three or four adjacent colors in the color wheel.
Complementary – involves the use of a color and its
complement-, meaning the color located opposite of the
first color.

complementary color scheme.but instead of using the
color’s complement, this scheme uses the two colors
adjacent to the complement.
