1 -Line as Shape

Essentially, line makes up the shapes we see. Line is the way we define shapes and how our minds recognize objects. Line depicts the edges of shapes.

This is an example of how line makes shapes. If you break this piece down then you basically get a bunch of lines, but if you arrange them in certain ways they take on new forms like the elephant and mouse. The lines define where an object starts and stops, and the interaction with one another to create forms.
