What Emotions Do Lines Communicate

In the picture above I drew a zebra because they have many lines. I think that lines communicate emotions such as calmness and business. When there are more lines the picture is more busy and when there are less the picture is cleaner. Curved lines can look more natural and straight lines can appear more neat and organized.

During this week we made drawings using different techniques with lines. Some of these techniques included structural, outline, gesture,cross hatching and contour drawing. Outline drawings do not have depth.Contour drawings have a little more information. Gestural drawings are trying to show what the object is doing. Structural drawings have more value and there are different values of one color. Also in structural drawings there are more lines.
