Pencil
Drawing sketches is like planting seeds in order to get pictures later. | Van Gogh
Introduction to Pencil
The Artist’s pencil should be like a very good friend, always there. I encourage students to sketch throughout the week. It is a perfect way to improve drawing skills. In the candor of sketches, the artist records first impressions of the surrounding world, and inspiration is birthed.
