Main skills of drawing lines

The main skills of drawing lines are as follows:

1, freehand brushwork

Line drawing is written in the same way as calligraphy. Fix the pen holder with thumb and forefinger, the middle finger holds the pen holder under the forefinger, the ring finger holds the pen body under the middle finger, and the little finger clings to the ring finger. The reason is that you can hold the pen better. When moving, you need to hold the pen perpendicular to the desktop, so you can learn to move with the strength of your elbow and wrist.

2. Sketch technology

Line drawing is often used to outline lines, so the pen used for line drawing is mainly the center, and the center, that is, the nib is perpendicular to the rice paper, so the lines outlined in the center are more powerful. Hold your hand firmly when you start writing, don't shake it, write slowly and quickly, and feel like you are coming back when you close the pen, instead of stopping suddenly.

3. The technique of drawing with ink

The use of ink is closely related to the use of pens. In fact, the mastery of pen and ink is also successful in most cases. It can be said that the exquisiteness of pen and ink comes from brushwork, and the technique of using pen is also reflected through pen and ink. The two can be said to be inseparable.

Line drawing is a technique of Chinese painting. Anything that can't be outlined with ink lines can be called line drawing, such as figure painting, flowers and so on. Simply put, line drawing is a way to describe things with the simplest pen and ink, which was called "line drawing" in ancient times and is now called "line drawing".
