=Welcome to Art 3= Art 3 is all about understanding all the things we make, art objects and everything else from a design point of view. If you think about it...almost everything we touch has been been designed by someone, no matter how mundane it is. Have you ever had a favorite object? A favorite t-shirt perhaps, a favorite teddy bear? A favorite piece of technology? Why was it your favorite? Chances are, it was well designed...it suited your needs perfectly.

So what was it about that design that made it so good? What were the characteristics of the materials that were used to make that object? Answer that question on your page.


 * Big Idea 1 The Elements of Art are the basic building blocks of all design.**
 * Shape, line, color and texture are the basic elements of all things we make. Everything visible has shape, line, color, and texture**


 * Big Idea 2: When used in an ordered combination, the elements of art communicate ideas, emotions, and concepts. These are the principles of design.**
