Detailed Description
In one line drawing, also known as single line drawing or continuous line drawing, the artist draws an entire image with one unbroken line. This type of drawing can be done with any medium, but is most commonly done with pen or pencil on paper. One line drawings are often used as a quick way to sketch an idea or capture a moment. They can also be more deliberate and detailed works of art. Artists who specialize in one line drawings often use repetitive patterns and shapes to create their images. Famous one line drawings include “The Wave” by Japanese artist Hokusai, “The Great Wave off Kanagawa.” “The Swimmer” by American artist John Singer Sargent, and “One Line Drawing of a Woman” by Swiss artist Paul Klee.
