Example (for Figure 1.1.9): I have chosen to discuss how directional line is displayed in Figure 1.1.9. The image contains strong diagonal lines which explode out from the light area on the left side of the artwork. These black, diagonal, lines serve two purposes. The first purpose is that they lead our eye to the focal point of the artwork (the explosion). The second purpose is that the lines, being diagonal, communicate movement.
