LINE: Line Dynamics

Taylor Ruffin
The objective of the day was to create the illusion of space by means of line drawings. We discussed cropping, symmetry vs. asymmetry and the distal cues (see tabs above for more info). Generally speaking the most dynamic compositions include diagonals and curved lines. Taylor's drawing above exhibits a curving central axis of discs moving away from the viewer and then back. The horizontal parallel lines establish the ground plane converging towards the horizon line. In addition, she has made the ground plane (foreground) a lighter value and the sky (background) darker.
