Project: using lines in composition - notes

Now that I have been through the basic catalogue of lines, I am to consder ways of using them to organise or strengthen a compstition. I must remember that the eye follows a line and that it also tries to construct a line from appropriate suggestions as a clear line provides a natural path for the eye, which moves along it. The more active the line, the stronger the encouragement for the eye to follow it, hence diagonals and curves work better in this way than verticals and horizontals.
