  1. Using line to create pattern Patterns by farm4

  2. Lines in different arrangements create patterns • Use an arrangement of lines, straight or curved, thin or thick, clear or fuzzy in a repeating or alternating pattern. • The closer your lines are together, the darker the area will be. • Lines can create the feeling of movement or depth. These designs are drawn with straight lines

  3. To create a pattern: • You can create patterns with shapes. Choose a shape, or series of lines and repeat that shape or the line to create a pattern. You can use circles or squares or triangles (any geometric shape); or you can use natural organic shapes (leaves, shells, stones) or you can use lines. • You can also mix the shapes and lines. Keep the patterns abstract. Patterns are not drawings of faces or trees or objects.

  4. The patterns don’t have to be difficult • These patterns are all made with circles.

  5. Simple lines • These are some very basic designs that become interesting when the shapes are repeated. • These are designs based on squares. Hilda Rytteke Suzanne McNeill

  6. To get started • You can use a piece of grid paper to design your pattern, or draw designs based on circles or squares or lines, or use the internet for ideas. • There are lots of tutorials and ideas on line.

  7. A little more complex: • There are lots of patterns for beautiful and complex designs

  8. Make your patterns interesting You need to: • Make sure some of your patterns have larger shapes, and some have smaller ones. • You can mix the sizes of the shapes within each area to help make the patterns more interesting. • You can make the backgrounds dark or light. • You can place the shapes in rows or alternate them, or put them randomly on the page.

  9. You need to create a wide range of value • Value is the lightness or darkness of a colour. The value can be crated by solid shading of one tone, or you can create different values by how close you place lines to one another.

  10. The more contrast, the more dramatic • This scratch-board drawing by Cathy Sheeter shows how some contrast in values creates a sense of drama. • The drawing of the letter M shows how well a strong contrast in values allows the letter to stand out.

  11. Texture and Value • The closer the lines are together the darker the area will look. • When the lines are far apart there is lots of white space so the areas are light • When the lines are closer together the areas look much darker.

  12. High contrast • This zentangle has a high level of contrast. The light areas are contrasted against the dark areas beside them.

  13. Examples of different patterns • Here are some examples of different patterns. They don’t stand out well as there isn’t much contrast. • Use the internet to help you find a variety of textures if you run out of ideas. Vary the backgrounds so there are strong contrasts in light and dark patterns.

  14. Contrast • A combination of lines, a variety of thicknesses of lines, and areas of strong contrast are needed to make patterns that are visually interesting. • The stronger the contrast the more the patterns will “pop”. • Make the black areas really dark. • Keep the shading tidy and even to make the work look strong. From Time to Tangle

  15. Organic and geometric shapes • There are an endless number of patterns you can create. They can be based on plants or animals, using lines that are organic. Flowers and feathers are an example of this. The designs may be geometric using circles, squares and triangles. They may be abstract and free flowing. • Make sure patterns that are side by side have more contrast than these do if you want your work to “pop” Debi Baker

  16. Using line and value to create interest • Line as well as shape can be used to create patterns. Adding dark areas helps to make the designs “pop”. Salmon Brook Studio Banar

  20. The contrasts in light and dark areas help to define the objects

  21. There needs to be a balance of lights and darks

  23. Patterns of lines create value and contrast Patterns by Skinnystraycat: The page on the right would have more visual impact if some of the backgrounds were dark. It would add stronger contrasts in value. left: Hearts and Curls Banar
