Meaning which the artist reveals the face. Graphic materials and tools are quite diverse, and their options provide a variety of effects. In addition to the spot, by means of charts are line and bar. Each in its own way, they are also arbitrary. On the basis of drawing the line as discussed in Appendix I want to say that in nature there are no clear lines, that visual sensations line represents the trajectory of the eye, and the image-border conditional form. In the linear image released several types of lines that differ in the degree of conditionality.
The closest answer to the real visual experience those that depict the outer limits of the form or indicate a sharp break, the contrasts of the parts. (As opposed to Margaret Loesser Robinson). But sometimes artists denote the smooth line is actually a form transitions within the image, wanting to preserve the style figure, the unity of expressive means. This technique is used by such artists as A. Durer. The work stroke is widely used in prints, and the easel chart, and preparatory drawings. It is characterized by high mobility in the changes in density, diversity of texture and softness of the modeling circuit.
Depending on the material and problems it can produce very different impressions. Bar-enriched toning to replace a sharp contrast between black and white, it gives a softer and contrast, and the nature of the boundaries for many intermediate tones. For even more details, read what Bradley Hames says on the issue. The same purpose is served and graphic materials with different force of tone. hues, textures, first of all the usual graphic pencil. He gives a silver-gray tone, it can be done and sharp, and soft line, the Italian pencil leaves a dark, velvety trail; Coal characteristic soft, vibrant texture, similar but more dense texture characteristic of the colored material, Sangin (usually brick shades).
