Yes, in fact, since I started practicing Linearism I have noticed that, quite a few artists have used parallel lines in their artworks. However, none has used parallel lines exclusively. There may be a handful who designed their artworks using parallel lines but no one has ever theorized the works in relation to the use of parallel lines.

There is a Miro landscape in the Guggenheim museum in New York with a country house that has a patch of colorful parallel lines in the foreground. Then Frank Stella’’s protractor series uses large parallel lines. Recently, I saw some Sol Lewitt abstract prints that had all very thick parallel lines in them. There are Morandi’s, low relief painted sticks sculptures and some of John’s paintings that have large linear passages in them. I have seen some Van Gogh landscapes that are similar in their application of the short brush strokes in the parallel manner. However no exclusive use or theorization is associated with the use of the parallel lines until my theory and practice of the Linearism.
