One line drawing

One line drawing - One-line art - Continuous Line Drawing

 

One line drawing is a minimalist and expressive technique where an artist creates an entire artwork using a single continuous line without lifting the pen or pencil from the paper. The goal is to capture the essence of the subject with a single, fluid stroke, often emphasizing contours and essential features. While seemingly simple, one line drawings can convey depth and complexity through the strategic placement of lines and curves. This technique encourages a sense of spontaneity and directness in the artwork, as mistakes or corrections are not easily concealed. One line drawings can vary in style and subject, ranging from portraits to abstract forms, and they offer a unique and dynamic visual experience.
