Use light and shade to create a ball

 Draw different circles in your paper and imagin the light coming from the top or a corner of your paper....

Form or Volume.

     Questions
  • What is a form?
  • Do you remember what a geometric shape is? Name me some.
FORM and VOLUME___________________________________________________________
   
      Form is an element of art. At its most basic, a form is a three-dimensional geometrical figure (i.e.: sphere, cube, cylinder, cone, etc.), as opposed to a shape, which is two-dimensional, or flat.
 A form always has three dimensions; length, width and height. When you stand next to an object you can go round it and see the three dimensions.
    Volume (three-dimensionality) can be simulated in a two-dimensional work (like a drawing) thanks to the use of light and shadows, perspective, etc.

SOLIDS_______________________________________________________________________

     Solids are three dimensional rigid bodies that occupy some volume or capacity. Solids have length, width and height.
 Type of Solids:
  • Polyhedron: regular and others.
  • Non Polyhedron
    1. Polyhedron is a geometric solid in three dimensions with flat faces and straight edges. Each surface is a polygon.
     2. Non Polyhedron: solids like cylinder, cone, and sphere have surfaces which are curved or combination of both curved and flat surfaces.
