Line quality is about Adjectives!
Lines may become wider or thicker in areas where the object itself is thicker or where there is shadow. They can be broken, short, sharp, wavy or curly!
Using a variety of line quality in your work makes your artwork much more interesting to look at! It can also provide the viewer more information about what they are looking at..
