visual elements
What eyes perceive
Visual elements are the components of an image or design that can be seen—line, shape, color, texture, space, and form.
The term appears most often in art education and design contexts: The visual elements of the painting create a sense of movement.
In web design and media, visual elements refers more broadly to any graphic components: images, icons, typography, and layout.
