Definition: Drawing
Drawing is a form of visual art in which a person
uses various drawing instruments to mark paper
or another two-dimensional medium
Instruments include:
• graphite pencils
• pen and ink
• various kinds of paints
• inked brushes
• wax colored pencils
• crayons
• charcoal
• chalk, pastels
• various kinds of erasers
• markers
• Styluses
• various metals (such as silverpoint)

Definition: Drawing
• A drawing instrument releases a small amount of material
onto a surface, leaving a visible mark
• The most common support for drawing is paper, although
other materials, such as cardboard, plastic, leather,
canvas, and board
• Temporary drawings may be made on a blackboard or
whiteboard or indeed almost anything
Page 6
Definition: Drawing
• In addition to its more artistic forms, drawing is frequently
used in commercial illustration, animation, architecture,
engineering and technical drawing.
• A quick, freehand drawing, usually not intended as a finished
work, is sometimes called a sketch.
Page 7
What is Pencil Drawing?
• Drawing executed with an instrument composed of graphite
enclosed in a wood casing and intended either as
a sketch for a more elaborate work in another medium, an
exercise in visual expression, or a finished work..
• Graphite is probably the most common drawing medium that
there is. Graphite most commonly comes in the form of a
pencil and is what most of us simply refer to as "pencil"

Rendering Techniques
Page 9
• One of the most important roles of architects is the
spiritization of designing by means of proper tools and
techniques; this is done by a good rendering job.
• A good hand rendering task employs correct colorings into
itself to express all the details, materials, shadows and
textures
Page 10
INTRODUCTION
• Art is the kind of expression which is used to conduct
emotional, sensational and indirect communication of
ideas.
• Designing is the expression for architecture.
Architecture must be designed before being built
• The idea behind an architect's plan is conveyed
through designing. So designing, a very important
“expression”, is a must in architectural education
Page 11
THE IMPORTANCE OF LINE DRAWING
• Line drawing is the first and superior requirement in
architectural designing process
• The line drawing of an architect is the signature and
personality of their architecture
• Architectural line is very dear and cannot be compared to line
drawings of other arts
• Never should it be oriented towards painting and caricature
• The more proper statement is that line drawing of an
architect must be perfect because it results to an estate, not
just a painting compass
Page 12
SHADOW
• Great architectural works of art always have shadow

designed as their architectural component.
• It is absolutely a climatic component and differs from
climate to climate.
• As an aesthetic viewpoint, it brings climate and
movement to the space of an architecture.
Page 13
SHADOW
• A scientific shadowing requires projection angle, plan,

light source and its illustration. These all may not be
always available.
• There are six reasons to apply shadow in architecture:
- Definition of form
- Definition of site
- Definition of light direction (direction of light
defines the main axle in buildings cities)
- Definition of time
- Definition of different climate conditions
- Rendering of work, out of paper's white
background

TEXTURE
• There exist various solutions to present components
of a building such as plan, facade, cross-section and
perspective. It depends upon the architect's creativity
and knowledge to choose from, e.g. coloring and
collage-making
• A crucial part of architectural designing is to choose
material and the right type of it in the right place
Page 16
TEXTURE
The most technical way of projecting these elements is to
draw the building materials with regard to climate,
ecosystem and time. This is superior to mere coloring of
building's surfaces, because:
• it reduces the use of color

• materials are employed to functions, climate and
ecosystem of the estate
• it harmonizes the estate
Page 17
Texture
• Rough
• Smooth
• Soft
• Hard
Page 18
Page 19
Basics of Color Rendering
• Architectural rendering is the art of presenting
architecture.
• Rendering can be applied to a whole building; on a plan,
cross-section, facade, details etc.
• We usually apply rendering to spatial fixtures such as
shelves, projections, hollows and so on .
• To express the mood of environment, unfixed furniture is
used, such as table and chair; there is no need in full
coloring.
• A technical way of rendering is to show large or big
components without coloring. Large surfaces like
ground, water and sky need no specific color.
Page 20
Basics of Color Rendering
• First, one should imagine correctly, then apply a correct color;

then architecturally render the sheet.
• Various techniques for rendering exist; one of the professional
tools for architectural rendering is the color pencil technique.

Geometric Drawings
• Geometry is nothing but numbers made visible. In fact it is the
very first manifestation of numbers, well before shorthand
symbols—1,2,3—were created for them.
• Early geometers understood the relationships between

numbers by looking at the way geometric shapes related to
each other, and as numbers were deeply meaningful, so were
the patterns emerging from them charged with meaning.
• The two-dimensional, abstract nature of geometry was

understood as being one step closer to the zero-dimensional,
unknowable Divine than our physical world, and its beauty was
quite literally out of this world.

Page 26
Geometric Shapes
• Many two-dimensional geometric shapes can be defined by a
set of points or vertices and lines connecting the points in a
closed chain, as well as the resulting interior points.
• Such shapes are called polygons and include triangles,
squares, and pentagons.
Page 27
Tone and Value
• Light Shade
• Dark Shade

Plate no.3
• Use one line drawing (hatching, tilting, etc.) and apply to
the selected drawing.
• Pencil only
• Standard Title Block

What is Still Life?
• A drawing or painting that focuses on still objects
• The subject matter is inanimate and never moves, typically
with a focus on household objects, flowers, or fruits
• Still life work contrasts figure drawing which focuses on a
live human model
