4. Shading Vs. Contour Lines

5. Contour Lines Contour lines are a single line or lines that define the outer and often the inner edges and surfaces of objects or figures.

6. Value Creates Form Form is the 3- deimensional appearance of an object. When value is added to a drawing the contour lines disappear.

7. Shading Techniques Blending: where the graphite is smeared using your finger or a blending tool. Shading using Gradation: where the artist does not smear the graphite but creates different values through the amount of pressure applied to the pencil and paper.
