1. Vocabulary of lines
Experiment drawing different types of lines in the table below. Think about how lines
would look depending on what material you used, a pencil line will look different from
a charcoal line. In addition think what the line is communicating, long flowing lines
might be relaxing while short zig zag lines might express anger. In each box below
draw a line and write 3 describing words, at least one should be a mood / feeling. Try
