Contour Line
• Contour Line is the line which defines a form or edge - an outline with other major lines.
• Contour drawing is the place where most artists start, following the visible edges of a shape.
• The contour describes the outermost edges of a form, as well as dramatic changes of plane within the form.
Blind Contour – Is creating contour by only looking at the object and only your paper once you have finished drawing the entire object.
