(Jck) Art Fundamentals: Theory And Practice

For thirty years, Art Fundamentals: Theory and Practice has been the text for students learning the fundamentals of art and design. Why has it been so successful? Students find the organization particularly useful, with a separate chapter for each formal design element. In addition, students are encouraged to consider the effects of each element in a wide variety of examples. Students gain an appreciation for the fundamental theories, enabling them to use those elements to create their own imagery in practice.
