Abstract Art is art that is not an accurate representation of a form or object. This representation can be differed in many ways including the shape, color, and form. The artist takes the object and then either simplifies it or exaggerates it.

Figurative art is itself based upon a silent understanding of abstracted shapes. The formal elements, those aesthetic effects created by design, upon which figurative art is dependent, include [|line], [|shape], [|color], [|light] and [|dark], [|mass], [|volume], [|texture], and [|perspective],[|[][|2][|]] although it should be pointed out that these elements of design could also play a role in creating other types of imagery -- for instance abstract, or non-representational or non-objective two-dimensional artwork.
