- What kind of lines can communicate motion? Stability? Energy?
- Why are human beings able to see "implied" lines?
- How might a graphic designer use lines differently than a fine artist?
- How is visual rhythm different than musical rhythm?
- What must be present for rhythm to exist?

1.) Wavy lines can create motion-- pretty much any line with an angle
or a series of lines with a certain pattern to it. Straight, boxy lines
convey stability. Wavy, circular lines convey energy.
2.) The
human mind automatically completes patterns and automatically "connects
the dots" so to speak. When an object is not complete, we fill in the
blanks to what it could be. For example: If I drew a stick figure of a
dog, we know it's dog. We aren't guessing as to what it could be because
once we have the basic shape of a certain object, our minds
automatically fill in the detail. It's human nature. We're like a cool
version of Yoda or something. Haha
3.) A graphic designer may use
lines to show something, for our eye to automatically catch it. The goal
of a graphic designer is to attract the public eye. An artist's goal
isn't nessacarily to attract the eye, but rather to give their piece
purpose or to even make the public eye think. A graphic designer may use
bold lines and coloring... a fine artist might use skinnier lines just
to complete their piece.
4.) Lines, in a piece depicting musical
rhythm, must flow and be constant. Visual rhythm isn't about the
constant line, rather the pattern of it. So, with that being said,
musical rhythm has more flow than say visual rhythm. Visual rhythm may
be more abrupt because it is only showing pattern, not nesscarily the
flow of it.
5.) For rhythm to exist, there must be somewhat of a pattern. Whether it be flowing or not, it must be present.
