Check brochures, advertiesments,  graphics, logos and other print media for lines,

Lines help us to

• provide movement

• make a statement

• Lines can be long or short, straight or curved.
• Lines can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal.

Look as many as printed media to find as many different types of lines
