For me, I like things to be simple
and to the point and I believe less is more. The first pencil drawing by
Toulouse Lautrec only has several lines but actually shows us the movement of ballet
dancers. The agile shape of their moving legs seems to tell us how relaxed and smooth
their action is. We suddenly know what the artist is trying to tell us from
those simple lines.
The second drawing is by Peter Paul Rubins, which is a
great illustration of implied line. When we follow the smooth shape of the back
of the man we can see an implied line with his movement. The man moves freely
with forward reach and driving force. It flows with finesse.
The last one is about
implied shape. We can see, at first glace in picture, there are nine arrows
pointing at different directions but stare at it carefully enough and you can
see five people hand in hand and walking downstairs. I found this to be a good
example of implied shape.
