Implied lines are more closely related to the way our minds “see” objects. By understanding implied line and recognizing the approach that should be taken to create them, we can bypass our analytical left brain and create a drawing that is more accurate to what is observed.

Draw the entire scene within a defined picture plane on drawing paper or in your sketchbook, but do not use line. Instead, draw using only value. Allow the contrast that happens between the value, color, or texture create the “lines” in the drawing.
