VISUAL ELEMENTS : THE FORM II

    We will continue explaining other ways to classify different forms in the arts. Thus follows will classify shapes according to their dimensions: we distinguish the two-dimensional flat shapes or forms and shapes with volume or three-dimensional shapes. For example a sheet of paper is a flat shape and a ball is a volumetric shape.

               

   Organic forms are characterized by irregular profile, these can be natural such as trees, mountains, etc.. And can also be artificial, as the design of a fabric.

             

  Geometric shapes are constructed with a mathematical order. Geometric shapes are the circle, square, triangle, an architectural drawing, a starfish, an orange cut in half, and  so on.

                                    

                                                 

Another part to be addressed in the question of the form is that of their qualities.
