Pencil drawing

A pencil drawing is a drawing that is made with a pencil (which is composed of wood and graphite).

Pencil drawings were not known before the 17th century,^[1] with the modern concept of pencil drawings taking shape in the 18th and 19th centuries.^[1] Pencil drawings succeeded the older metalpoint drawing stylus, which used metal instead of graphite.^[1]

Modern artists continue to use the graphite pencil for artworks and sketches.^[1]

Drawings that are done by color pencils bring a more lively appearance and make them look more realistic. A great number of people consider them as a gift for special occasions for the unique value pencil portraits bring.

With the use of charcoal pencils, artists can create beautiful drawings with their hands and well-trained talents. https://www.pencilperceptions.com/web-stories/learn-pencil-sketch-in-8-simple-steps/ pencil sketch
