BASIC DRAWING
 DRAWING
the art or technique of producing images on a surface, usually
paper, by means of marks, usually of ink, graphite, chalk,
charcoal, or crayon.
Drawing as formal artistic creation might be defined as the
primarily linear rendition of objects in the visible world, as well
as of concepts, thoughts, attitudes, emotions, and fantasies given
visual form, of symbols and even of abstract forms.
is the end product of a successive effort applied directly to the
carrier.
Formally, drawing offers the widest possible
scope for the expression of artistic intentions.
Ever since the Renaissance, drawing has
gradually been losing its anonymous and
utilitarian status in the eyes of artists and the
public, and its documents have been increasingly
valued and collected.

ELEMENTS OF
DRAWING
 Line – the most basic element of drawing.
 Shape - helps define the object that is depicted as much as
the collection of lines
 Proportion and Perspective
- Proportion - the size of one picture element in relation
to the size of another.
- Perspective - is the illusion that further away things
appear smaller.
 Light and Shadow - create depth and atmosphere in a
drawing
 The whole drawing
THE BASIC DRAWING
TECHNIQUES
 Point and line - basis of each drawing
Point and line are the basic drawing instruments. The
line marks the outline of a motif. It is used as a basic
technique for drawing, to represent the boundaries and
the outline of objects. With it, contrasts can be depicted
and pointed out.
 Hatching
The hatching is a classic drawing technique which
makes it possible to draw and form the surfaces of a
motif. Various effects can be achieved with the hatching
technique.
 Smudging Technique
When smudging, a hatched area is blurred with a
finger or a wipe tool. This makes it possible to create
very smooth surfaces and tone gradients. Absolutely
suitable for smudging is charcoal - it can be blurred so
easily.
 Washes
If shading or tinting is to be achieved with liquid drawing
materials, for example when drawing with ink, the wash is the
technique of choice. With an brush you can wash ink over you
line drawing to create a shading. This method comes from
watercolor painting.
 Combined techniques in drawing
Many artists combine the different methods of drawing and
painting. They move along the borders between classical
painting and drawing techniques and vary materials,
techniques and procedures.
 Sgraffito
This drawing technique receives its name sgraffito
from the Italian verb sgraffiare, which means to scratch.
