Artistic drawings are drawings of any size or style penciled onto paper or canvas. A sketch is a freehand drawing that is not usually intended as a finished work. Historically, artists used a silver stylus on specialized paper called silverpoint to draw sketches. Artists can also use pen and ink or charcoal on regular paper to achieve the same look. Common tools used today for artistic drawings include graphite pencils, inked brushes, crayons, charcoals, pastels, markers or wax colored pencils. Sketchbooks are a popular medium for artistic drawing as well as different styles of paper. What the artist chooses to draw is ideally up to him or her. If you choose to draw a replication of something that is in front of you, such as a model, this is usually called a still life drawing. There are various other inspirations you can find for your drawings including memories or imagination. In this series of expert videos, you will learn how to draw with art pencils.
