Contour Contour lines are created by the edges of things. They are perceived when three-dimensional shapes curve back into space. Edges are perceived because the objects differ from the backgrounds in value (lighter verses dark), texture or color. When line is used to follow the edges of forms, to describe their outlines, the result is called contour drawing.
Cross Contour Contour lines also can describe interior detail. For example, a contour line drawing of a person’s face would include a line defining the shape of the head and additional lines that describe the surfaces and planes of the facial features. These lines can vary in thickness.
