Sketching (III)

A sketch is not designed to be a detailed drawing that gets every element perfect. It captures the essentials of the subject – the overall form and perspective, a sense of volume, movement, and feeling. The sketch may also include the suggestion of light and shade.

But sometimes the sketch is a complete drawing, not laboured or overworked but still complete. Consider it a snapshot of life drawn out on a piece of paper.

Sketches are often part of the preparation for a more developed drawing or painting. The sketch allows the artist to rough out their ideas and plan the finished piece before embarking on a more precise work.
