Historically speaking the linear style is also referred to as “Contour Drawing.” The artist who made it an art form was no less then Pablo Picasso. From that point forward it has gone in and out of fashion several times as a style used within the illustration industry.

At this point in time (2008) it has been a very popular style for the past five years or so. Most of it’s popularity is due to the fact it can work well within nearly any genre or context. I’ve personally created art in this style for big pharma, Kleenex, a green magazine, a coffee company and as you’ll soon see a bank.

The following tutorial will give you insight into how to illustrate in a linear line style.
