What defines a line?

A line connects two points and can go on forever. It is made by tools such as pencil, pen, paint, paintbrish, etc.

Lines can create shape, texture and variety in art depending on how it is used.

Lines can also create sense of depth depending on how thick or thin you make it.

There are two types of line,
Real/actual lines and implied lines.

Real/actual lines are are lines that are physically present, existing as solid connections between two or more points.

Implied lines refer to the path that the viewer's eyes take in as it follows shape, colour and form within an art piece or artwork.
