Question

Implied lines can be seen or they physically exist. True or False

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Implied lines are not physically drawn, and they are not seen as the lines. Their existence is suggested by other featured – other lines, shadows, colors, textures, etc.

For example, we can have the implied line as the edge of the drawn object. That would mean we see the object it’s color, values, shadows, and volume, but we don’t see the actual line that surrounds it and shows us it’s edges. Yet we perfectly know where the edges of the object are because of other features, so our eyes and brains can distinguish where the end of the thing is and “finish” it for us. Eye and brain connect the elements and create the edge or the implied line which does not actually exist.
