Drawing

The lines of shading following a convenient parallel direction unless prominent forms demand otherwise. In this method the lines of shading not being much varied in direction or curved at all, a minimum amount of that form stimulus is conveyed.

And in the greatest pictures form, colour, and idea are united to thrill us with harmonies analogous to music. The painter expresses his feelings through the representation of the visible world of Nature,...
