What is the definition of form and shape? ›In the visual arts, shape is a flat, enclosed area of an artwork created through lines, textures, or colours, or an area enclosed by other shapes, such as triangles, circles, and squares. Likewise, a form can refer to a three-dimensional composition or object within a three-dimensional composition.
What are examples of shapes in art? ›There are GEOMETRIC shapes and ORGANIC shapes. GEOMETRICshapes are precise shapes. Examples of geometric shapes are triangles, circles, squares, trapezoids, parallelograms, ovals and rectangles.
How do you describe a shape? ›A shape is a graphical representation of an object's form or its external boundary, outline, or external surface. It is distinct from other object properties, such as color, texture, or material type.
What does form of art mean? ›In relation to art the term form has two meanings: it can refer to the overall form taken by the work – its physical nature; or within a work of art it can refer to the element of shape among the various elements that make up a work.
