Evolution of Impressionists’ Drawing -194

Impressionist drawing naturally evolved when painters began seeing the world as strictly visual phenomena and not objects. This is a look at how some of the French Impressionists managed it...and includes some more Boston School discussion.

QUESTION: Let me get you into trouble , you speak of impressionists and mentioned the Boston school but how about the work of the original ones? Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Auguste Renoir, Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas? If you look at their drawings they use line and symbolism to express the real world, except Monet who takes it to the idea of color and light , his pencils (he even did caricatures) seem to have the idea of line... is this impressionist line or how you go about it understanding this way of drawing?
