1. Formal Elements: The Building Blocks | 形式元素：艺术的基本构建块
Line: The path of a moving point, defined by its direction, length, and character. Lines can be straight, curved, implied, or expressive.
线条： 移动点的轨迹，由其方向、长度和特性定义。线条可以是直线、曲线、暗示性的或富有表现力的。
Tone: The lightness or darkness of a colour or a neutral grey. Tone creates depth, volume, and mood through shading and contrast.
色调： 一种颜色或中性灰色的明暗程度。色调通过明暗对比和阴影营造深度、体积感和氛围。
Colour: The visual sensation produced by different wavelengths of light. Described by hue, saturation, and value, colour can be harmonious, complementary, or discordant.
色彩： 由不同波长的光产生的视觉感受。色彩由色相、饱和度和明度来描述，可以是和谐的、互补的或冲突的。
Shape: A two‑dimensional enclosed area defined by an outline or a change in colour or texture. Shapes can be geometric or organic.
形状： 由轮廓或色彩、肌理变化界定的二维封闭区域。形状可以是几何形的或有机形的。
Form: The three‑dimensional equivalent of shape, possessing height, width, and depth. In 2D work, form is suggested through tone and perspective.
形体： 形状的三维对应物，具有高度、宽度和深度。在二维作品中，形体通过色调和透视来暗示。
Texture: The surface quality of an object, either actual (tactile) or implied (visual). Texture adds richness and can be simulated with mark‑making techniques.
肌理： 物体的表面质感，可以是真实的（可触摸的）或暗示的（视觉上的）。肌理增添丰富感，并可通过笔触技法来模拟。
Pattern: A repeated decorative design, often built from lines, shapes, or colours. Pattern can create rhythm, unity, or visual disruption.
图案： 重复的装饰性设计，通常由线条、形状或色彩构成。图案可以创造节奏感、统一感或视觉上的打破。
2. Colour Theory Fast Facts | 色彩理论速记
Hue: The pure name of a colour, such as red, blue, or yellow‑green, independent of its lightness or intensity.
色相： 色彩的纯正名称，如红、蓝或黄绿，与其明度或强度无关。
Primary Colours: Red, blue, and yellow in traditional colour mixing. They cannot be made by mixing other colours.
三原色： 传统调色中的红、蓝、黄。它们无法通过混合其他颜色获得。
Secondary Colours: Orange, green, and violet, created by mixing two primary colours.
间色： 由两种原色混合而成的橙、绿、紫。
Tertiary Colours: Six colours such as red‑orange or blue‑green, made by mixing a primary with a neighbouring secondary.
复色： 由一种原色与相邻间色混合而成的六种颜色，如红橙、蓝绿。
Saturation / Intensity: The purity or brilliance of a colour. A highly saturated colour is vivid; lowering saturation produces a dull or muted tone.
饱和度 / 强度： 色彩的纯度或鲜艳程度。高饱和度的色彩鲜艳明亮；降低饱和度会产生灰暗或柔和的色调。
Value / Tone: How light or dark a colour appears. Adding white creates a tint; adding black creates a shade.
明度 / 色调： 颜色呈现的明暗程度。加入白色产生浅色（tint）；加入黑色产生暗色（shade）。
Complementary Colours: Pairs opposite on the colour wheel (e.g. red and green). When placed next to each other, they create maximum contrast and visual vibration.
互补色： 色轮上相对的色彩对（如红与绿）。并置时产生最强对比和视觉震荡。
Harmonious / Analogous Colours: Colours adjacent on the wheel, such as blue, blue‑green, and green. They produce a calm, unified effect.
和谐色 / 类似色： 色轮上相邻的颜色，如蓝、蓝绿和绿。它们营造平静统一的效果。

Negative Space: The empty or open area around and between the subjects. Thoughtful use of negative space can define shapes and convey a minimalist aesthetic.
负空间： 主体周围及之间的空白或开放区域。巧妙运用负空间可以界定形状，并传递极简美学。
Viewpoint / Angle: The position from which the subject is depicted—eye level, bird’s‑eye view, worm’s‑eye view. Unusual viewpoints add drama and originality.
视点 / 角度： 描绘对象时所处的位置——平视、鸟瞰、仰视。非常规视点增添戏剧性和原创性。
