Contour Lines
----------------------------------H South, licensed to About.com, Inc.--------------------------------------Cross contour lines are drawn lines which travel, as the name suggests, across the form. Cross contours may be horizontal or vertical, as on the right side of the example, or both. Often, in more complex forms, cross-contours will be drawn at varying angles. In this rather lumpy example, the grid of cross-contours looks a bit like the gridlines on a globe or a diagram of a Black Hole in space.

Used Variety of Lines
Keep Your Pencils Sharp
Chisel-point or blunt pencils are useful for some techniques, but for most pencil drawing, keep your pencil sharp. Don't worry about 'wasting' graphite in the sharpener - better than wasting your drawing efforts! Brighten the point by rubbing the side of the pencil on scrap paper between sharpenings. If you need a darker line, use a softer pencil, and be aware that a softer pencil goes blunt quickly.
Use a Variety of Line:
When drawing lines, either in a linear drawing or within a texture in a tonal drawing, note that you can vary the weight of the line by lifting the pencil or pressing harder. This might seem obvious, but it is important, and most people don't exploit lineweight enough. Note the example above, which shows how lifting the pencil towards the end of the stroke can be used to give a grassy or fluffy effect. It can be useful to reduce the weight as the pencil is applied at the start of the stroke, rather than dropping it straight into full pressure.

Sketching Lines Composition Using a Pen.
Knowledge and the skill of sketching lines using a pen is necessary because they have their own special characteristics depending on the types of pen, the thickness of the tip and the ink used. An artist or designer has to be smart choosing the thickness of the pen tip to sketch because the‘mood’ created by the different thickness of the lines are not the same.
Sketching Lines Composition Using A Pencil
Lines using pencilthe lines created using pencil have their own characteristic that need to be understood by an artist or designer. The nature of the lines are softer compared to the sketch using a pen. There are two grades of pencil which are the soft (HB until 9B) and the hard (B until 8B). the creating of a good quality pencil line could be done through the skill controlling the pressure (weight) of the pencil into the sketch sheet. An artist or designer need to know how to combine different line using different pressure in order to get awesome sketch. Besides that, the way of holding a pencil and using the right type of sketch sheet could influence that quality if sketches.
The Concept Of Lines In Sketching
The concept of lines in sketchinglines are significant elements in any sketches. It derives from dots which eventually become a stretch of along lines. Lines will influent the quality of a sketch created. The knowledge and skill about the concept of lines is pivotal where each types of line will give a different effect on a sketch.

The practice of sketching
The practice of sketching various types of lines is necessary to ensure the sketch produce is of the superior quality. Even though this may seem simple, it require simple concentration and confident to be able to produce quality lines. If each line sketched is observed carefully they all have specific categories that need to be understood by the artist or the designer.
