Types of Lines
Artists use many different types of lines in their artwork, and each type can create a unique feeling or look! A STRAIGHT line goes in one direction without turning, just like the edge of a ruler. It can make things look neat and organized. A CURVED line bends gently, like the beautiful shape of a rainbow, and it can make us feel calm and happy. A ZIGZAG line goes sharply up and down, similar to a lightning bolt, and it can feel exciting and energetic! And a WAVY line wiggles gently, just like the waves in the ocean, making us think of movement and fun. Can you think of other lines you see in art or nature? Maybe you can find them in your drawings or even outside when you look around! Let’s explore and see how many different lines we can discover together!
