Despite being on this site since 08, I'm relatively new on the forums. I didn't start using them since this year, and I've mostly been entering art competitions. And so, I came across a few which said 'no line art' in the rules. What I'm wondering is, what is line art anyway? I checked on wikipedia, and it only confused me more, to be honest. Call me a noob if you want, but I'm honestly curious. If I, for example, drew a drawing of, say, a dog by hand in pencil, and then colored, shaded, added a background, etc., would that be considered line art? Or is line art just an outline drawn by someone that is then colored by someone else?
Help?
Thanks for reading!
