Many children are interested in drawing: they like both the process itself and the result, that is, finished drawings and paintings. Some children have the ability to draw from birth, and it is easy for them to turn this ability into skill through persistent and regular practice. But for others, drawing may not be such an easy task, and after the first unsuccessful attempts, thoughts arise that they will never succeed, and the drawings fly into the trash. But if only there were such fine art that every person can master!
Sketching is a technique for drawing quick sketches by hand, for the creation of which you do not need to be a professional artist, because it does not place high demands on skills. Until recently, this type of work served only as a prototype of a real work of art, but today such sketches can be considered complete illustrations that retain a certain charm and attractiveness.
Today, sketching is a well-known and rapidly developing area of drawing. Its popularity is explained by the simplicity of the technique, fairly quick results, as well as complete freedom in style and drawing style and the ability to work with various tools: from ordinary pencils to pastels and special markers.
It is popular in many professional activities: this method of visualizing creative ideas actively used by modern artists, illustrators, architects, designers and many other representatives of creative professions.
