Art work is called as home of imagination because you doesn't know when will a single idea can click into your mind and from that you will create a pathetic master piece. Art is nothing else it's just your imagination, way of thinking, inspiration your perception that allows you to paint all these situations on the canvas.

History of Art
The term art we use today is a modern word, the person who first created the art work probably he/she was unaware of what is inventing, and was unaware of that he/she will be called an artist later. To call some object as an art work and the word artist was raised in in the 15th and 16th centuries in Italy. In later 16 century the first academics of arts was founded in Italy then France and now it is spread over most of the developed countries.

In the age of Renaissance the word art becomes the mixture of painting, sculpture and architecture, and Italian artist start earning from it, then music and poetry were included to this group that was known as "Fine Arts" in 18 century
At last in early 20's artists starts to formulate the notion on the two dimensional surface called as canvas today and now we see a lot of work is done on canvas today and mirrors also.

Elements of ArtArt has given a way to creativity that has to be expressed in different ways, in creating a master piece that should be an example for others, involves a lot of experiences and hard work. It can only be done by fallowing the seven elements of arts.
LineLine is the starting point to make an art, It is the first element of art, an artist starts with a line having moving points, line shows different moods, behaviors and feelings of an artist. Lines convey different messages in the form of vertical, horizontal or diagonal, depending upon the artist what he wants to convey.

Shape
Shape consists of two dimensions height and width, shapes may be of various kinds, they may be oval, rectangular, square etc. When different lines emerges they form a shape depending on the creation of an artist.

FormForm gives almost 70 percent complete picture of the art, every thing has it own form without a complete form art is incomplete , form also consists of height, width and length. True value of form reflects in Sculptures and decorative kind of arts.

ValueIt is necessary that value should be equally matched with the art to create a complete picture. It includes a change in the base color, depending upon the absorption and reflection of the surface.

TextureIt lightens the image of an art and conveys the whole picture. It consists of three kinds basic, simulated and invented texture, different shades are used to enhance texture and lines do a work of catalyst.

ColorColor gives life to the art work, without color the image become dull and conveys poor message. Color consist of three qualities i.e. intensity, hue and value. Hue includes the following shades (Red, yellow or pink), value means lightness or the darkness and intensity means the brightness or dullness of the art work.

Space
Space means in which area and depth, the artist had created an art. It also means the overall volume of the art work. Space can highly define the beauty of art, with the use of space an artist can impact a great value in the mind of viewer. The intensity of creating an art becomes clear due to proper management of an art.

So if these all elements of art are fully managed it helps in creating a great art work with little effort.

At last I will say only this, "An art is something to create, what you had never created before".
