Lines are everywhere. You can see lines in the grain of a piece of wood or in the cracks on a sidewalk.
In art, Line is an element of art that is the path of a moving point through space.
Lines are used to:
-
Create boundaries between shapes
-
Create boundaries between colors, textures or values
-
Lead the eye from one space to another
-
Create textures
-
Suggest emotional qualities

Grid drawing is a very old technique of transferring images (from sketches to a full size canvas or fresco, etc...)
Always make sure that the number of squares on the original picture and your working area are exactly the same (even if the size of the squares are bigger on the paper). This is because no matter how many times bigger (or smaller) you make the drawing, the proportions and dimensions can only stay the same if the number of boxes (squares) matches exactly.
Make sure you follow all steps below.

The Principles of Design
The Principles of Design are the ways that artists use the Elements of Art in an artwork. The elements of art are the "tools" of the artist like the tools to a construction worker would be a hammer, nail, glue and measuring tape. The principles of design use the "tools" (elements of art) to "build" a design. Not every artwork has every last one of the elements contained within it, but there are usually at least two present.
How we apply the principles of design determines how successful we are in creating a work of art. Click on each principle of design to learn more. Click on each one to learn more.
