Comments on: Line Style: An Experiment https://trumpetvine.com/2007/06/09/drawing-line-style/ Mon, 25 Jun 2007 02:40:37 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.4 By: Susan Cornelis https://trumpetvine.com/2007/06/09/drawing-line-style/comment-page-1/#comment-8851 Mon, 25 Jun 2007 02:40:37 +0000 /2007/06/09/drawing-line-style/#comment-8851 I know just what you mean! About the line that comes with a particular setting being different from other days. I’m the same way with handwriting, almost like a different person emerges each day and identifies hersefl with her handwriting. If you try the experiment another day, you’ll probably get different results.

And I’m way impressed at how similar they are, if I did it, the viewer would think I’d drawn three different models of cars and a truck! Interesting experiment, indeed. And of course, they all look great!

I think I like #1 the best, but I’m really fond of contour drawings. I think it might be interesting to do the same study using something natural as your subject and see if your results are similar.

Now I’d like to see what happens when you do it again but with different materials. Pencil, ink, pastel …
No, nevermind. That’s what I’d like to do now if I’d had more time 🙂

But I miss your wonderful washes and I think there would be a lot less line if you used washes.

Everyone: Thank you for your comments: they’ve got me thinking even more.

I can’t tell how another artist has created their particular line style, although I love to watch them do it. I also experience that ebb and flow with language (good point!), and I do suspect that my line style variations are at least somewhat brain-related.

It is also true that with washes my preferences on these sketches could change. Great idea: I will try it – results coming soon, as well as my further (over 😕 ) thinking on this topic.

My name is Mónica and I live in Barcelona, Spain. I work as Psychologist but for many years painting has been my hobby. Since I saw for the first time your drawings I fell in love with them!! In fact, your experiments and ideas have been estimulating me for make my own designs and get better in my style and compositions. This new idea, is something that I have been practicing , making some copys of your sketchs or just taking some ideas from them.
Thank you very much for share your works, they are plenty of spirit and sensibility!

I think I like 3 and 4 best, mostly because of the dark shadow, which pull the drawing together, and the extra detail on 4. I think Jenny may be on to something, if you were to add wash, it could change everything.

What an interesting experiment! Thanks for sharing it with us. I haven’t been sketching very long (what I did before 2003 was too long ago or very limited), and I am amazed at how similar two of my journal sketches are – done months apart. I keep hoping for more development, and keep being surprised at how individual style doesn’t change dramatically when using the same art technique.
Shirley

I am very interested in what factors contribute to each style of line–the evidence we can see on the paper, not what the artist was thinking, since we can’t really know that. What makes each line style look the way it does? For example, can you tell which way the pencil went, where the artist started? Judy
