- visual concepts (rhythm, movement, sound, tension, balance, proportion, direction, space etc)
- visual perception and thinking (visual information, sign, symbol, image, archetype)
- artwork, image and content
- the structuring options of elements of visual art language, composition (composition modes, principles, perspective, color theory, relations [color, tonality, proportions, shape etc.])
