"Lumen is a beautiful portal into the world of visual art: its elements, historical development, and delightful diversity. While the book is conducive for reading and studying with children, it can take the whole family and people of all ages on a journey of discovery."

Dr. Wes Vander Lugt

Anyone can think like an artist thanks to the building blocks of visual art.

The seven elements are the building blocks of the language of visual art.  The more you can speak that language, the more you can think like an artist. Our goal is to help students do that.

Featuring chapters on twenty-four essential works of art and the artists who created them, each Lumen volume takes teachers, students, and art lovers of all kinds on a journey through art history, from ancient times to modern days. Volume one is on the element of line. Volume two explores the element of space.
