The fourth element is:

Colour has three main characteristics:
•hue (red, green, blue, etc.)
•value (how light or dark it is)
•intensity(how bright or dull it is).
Colours can be described as warm (red, yellow) or cool (blue, gray), depending on which end of the colour spectrum they fall.

-Value describes the brightness of colour. Artists use colour value to create different moods.
-Dark colours in a composition suggest a lack of light, as in a night or interior scene. Dark
colours can often convey a sense of mystery or foreboding.
-Light colours often describe a light source or light reflected within the composition.
 -Intensity describes the purity or strength of a colour.
-Bright colours are undiluted and are often associated with positive energy and heightened emotions.
-Dull colours have been diluted by mixing with other colours and create a sedate or serious mood.
