How can weight be suggested in an object made with line?

Correct answer: Through a stronger lower line and by showing the direction of weight

Direct answer: D, by using a stronger lower line and showing the direction in which the object rests or bears weight. Lines can communicate more than outline: their thickness, pressure, darkness, and placement can suggest stability and force. Begin by observing where the object touches or rests on the ground. A firm, darker, or heavier line near that support makes the base feel secure. Then show the downward pull or distribution of weight through the posture and direction of the lines. A is wrong because a light dot above does not establish support or mass. B is wrong because removing lines removes visual information. C is wrong because equal treatment of every part does not necessarily show a heavier base. D is correct because it combines a strong support area with a clear weight direction. This does not mean that every drawing must use a dark bottom line; the artist should adjust line strength to the form and lighting. Memory cue: weight needs support, so look for the base and the force moving toward it.
