Contour drawing
Contour drawing, is an artistic technique used in the field of art in which the artist sketches the contour of a subject by drawing lines that result in a drawing that is essentially an outline; the French word contour meaning, “outline.” 〔http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=contour〕 The purpose of contour drawing is to emphasize the mass and volume of the subject rather than the detail; the focus is on the outlined shape of the subject and not the minor details. However, because contour can convey a three-dimensional perspective, length and width as well as thickness and depth are important; not all contours exist along the outlines of a subject.〔Sutherland, Jane. 1997. "Gesture drawings." American Artist (VNU eMedia, Inc.) 61, no. 656: 11. Academic Search Complete, EBSCOhost . Retrieved February 9, 2010.〕 This technique is manifested in different styles and practiced in the honor of drawing development.
==Importance==
Contour drawing is an essential technique in the field of art because it is a strong foundation for any drawing or painting; it can potentially modify a subjects’ form through variation within the lines. Its objective is to capture the life, action, or expression of the subject.〔 It is widely accepted among schools, art institutions, and colleges as an effective training aid and discipline〔Nicolaïdes, Kimon. 1941. "The Natural Way to Draw". Houghton Mifflin Company Boston〕 for beginner artists. In the hands of a talented master, the line that conveys contour can deliver an astonishing amount of visual delight.
