Question

An artist described his drawing to you before you viewed it. The artist said that his drawing depicts an overall quality of tension a person feels when water skiing. He says the drawing shows the person, the water ski, and an accurate description of the boat. List the line types and describe the effect it makes in this scenario

Answer 1

The artist would use diagonal lines, "zig zag" lines and hatched lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the artist wants to create a painting that expresses tension, he must use lines that promote an effect of stress, anxiety, fear and discomfort. The best lines to convey this impression are the diagonal lines (which convey the feeling of lack of stability and discomfort), "zig zag" lines (which convey the feeling of anxiety, restlessness and stress) and hatched lines (which can provide the feeling of fear, tension and worry).
