Elements of art are the basic essencials an artist needs to complete their artwork, such as; a line, shape, form, texture,and shading.
A line and a shape are related because when you connect a line to itself it becomes a shape.
Shape and form are related because a form is a 3 dimentinal shape.

The lines above are examples of implied lines. An implied line is a line that continues it's path across the paper but isn't complete(gaps in the middle).
The line above is an example of a real line. A real line is a line that is fluent from start to finish without any gaps in the middle.

Everything is made up of an organic or geometric shape. Overall most geometric shapes are mechanic and very precise. Which tend to be human made but there are a few exceptions of geometric shapes in nature. An example is a bumble bee's beehive, every shape in a beehive is very precise therefore geometric. An example of an organic shape is a lake. A lake's edges are not exact which creates an organic shape.
