Elements of Art

This is a very simple and direct set of art definitions.

This should be easy to use.

The Elements and Principles of Art

I selected this website because the elements of art, aka the elements of design, are explained

in a direct manner. The definitions are simple and clear. The pictures lead to a visual understanding.

Best of all, this is a slideshow format. I wanted this assignment to be clear and simple for students.

Art explained and made simple.

This link is more for parents. Sometimes art, much like science, math and other subjects, seems to be confusing.

This is a pretty good website to clarify and to develop notions about art. It deals with diverse art subject matter including

Art History and Art Appreciation. It is more of an FYI.
