Extended information:

Drawing is the foundation and skeleton of painting; it is also the most restrained art that requires the most help from reason. Beginners to painting must first learn sketching. Those who are good at sketching will naturally be good at oil painting. The origin of sketching generally begins with the Renaissance. In fact, Greek vase paintings and sculptures all have a good foundation in sketching. In the early stage, sketches were regarded as the drafts of paintings. For example, to make a mural, you first need to have a draft of the idea, then a draft of the sketch, and at the same time, you also need to have precise sketches of the hands and face.
