Value: Lightness or darkness of a hue or neutral color. A value scale shows the range of values from black to white.
Color: The visual sensation dependent on the reflection or absorption of light from a given surface.
Texture: The surface quality of materials, either actual (tactile) or implied (visual).
Shape: A two-dimensional area or plane that may be open or closed, free-form or geometric. It can be found in nature or is made by humans.
Form: A three-dimensional volume or the illusion of three dimensions

The Element of Art - Space
California Visual Arts Glossary Definitions
Space. The emptiness or area between, around, above, below, or contained within objects. Shapes and forms are defined by the space around and within them, just as spaces are defined by the shapes and forms around and within them.
Textbook Glossary Definition
Space: In art, the area and/or air occupied by, activated by, or implied to be in an artwork.
Description of space
An element in both pictorial composition and abstract design
In two-dimensional art, space is designated as the negative area between positive objects - called decorative or surface space.
Space-in-depth comprises of three sections: foreground, middle ground, and background.
Creating illusion of space-in-depth requires:
Using vertical placement to suggest depth
Diminishing sizes of objects as they recede in the distance
Drawing sharp, clear details in the foreground and blurred, indistinct elements in the background.
Overlapping shapes or forms
Drawing objects that are farther away from the observer higher on the picture plane
Using bright, intense colors in the foreground and dulled colors in the background
Employing perspective-creating techniques such as converging lines and horizontal lines
"Rules of perspective should not be imposed on children unless they have a need for them."Young artists need to learn to understand point of view - from above, below, close-up, through a microscope, or through a telescope.
Review the element of space from Getty Art - //www.getty.edu/education/for_teachers/building_lessons/elements.html#space
"Real space is three-dimensional. Space in a work of art refers to a feeling of depth or three dimensions. It can also refer to the artist's use of the area within the picture plane. The area around the primary objects in a work of art is known as negative space, while the space occupied by the primary objects is known as positive space."
