Eloquent prose. I usually interpret line as symbolic of form and tone as symbolic of how light plays on that form. It makes total sense that the iconic nature of something like a line drawing would be more closely related to the function of the objects depicted, whereas a realistic rendering without clear edges would be considered more abstract.
i'm a simple person; drawing look good, i like it
