Topic: Sketch (drawing)



  
 sketch - Columbia Encyclopedia article about sketch
See cartoon cartoon [Ital., cartone=paper], either of two types of drawings: in the fine arts, a preliminary sketch for a more complete work; in journalism, a humorous or satirical drawing.
The sketch is not usually intended as an autonomous work of art, although many have been considered masterpieces in their own right.
Used extensively in the planning of large, complex projects, the sketch allows the artist to visualize quickly the bend of a knee or the sweep of an arm without having to experiment directly on the work itself.

 Graphics : Sketch, vectorial drawing under Linux
Sketch is a vector drawing program, which is to say it represents a figure, a circle for example, by a mathematical formula, whereas a program such as The Gimp, a bitmap editor, uses points (pixels).
This article reviews the principle tools of Sketch, details the creation of a drawing of a floppy disk, and explains some "special" effects worthy of the big shots of vector drawing.
You cannot represent a photo in vector mode, but it is possible to integrate bitmap images within Sketch (eps, jpg, gif, tiff,...) and import and open other formats (xfig, illustrator, corel,...).

 Antiques Roadshow/Tips of the Trade: Study Drawings: A Perfect Choice
While it might not be a painting from the Louvre, a study drawing, a sketch used by an artist to experiment with subject and composition, could very well set you on the collection path.
Many study drawings, such as the Jean Francois Millet sketch shown here, can stand on their own as a work of art.
"Working drawings can be great entries into the market of fine art," says fine art expert Kathleen Harwood, of Harwood Fine Arts, Inc. of Maplewood, N.J. "They are almost always cheaper than paintings by the same artist." Harwood says that a study drawing can cost less than 10 percent of a final version.

 Michelangelo to Matisse--Drawing the figure A look at 500 years of figure drawing
Rembrandt's drawing, a plan for a painting, is a simple sketch of the artist alone with his easel.
The first art school to insist on drawing as a basic component of its curriculum was established in the 16th century by the artist Giorgio Vasari, one of the most famous early art historians.
So precise were Michelangelo's drawings, as well as his paintings and sculptures, that they were used as models by other artists of this period.

 Annual Bulletin 2, A. Y. Jackson in France, Belgium and Holland: A 1909 Sketchbook by Rosemarie L. Tovell
The drawings have no colour notations, which indicates they were done before it was time for Jackson to concern himself with colour, for the purpose of an oil sketch for example.
Such drawings could also be done in the studio if the rethinking of a composition was minor and did not require an oil sketch, as the drawing on page 23 verso (fig.
This is the drawing Jackson remembered as coming "closest to the painting which was probably destroyed." (21) The studies on page 23 verso (fig.

 Millais-Study for 'The Black Brunswicker'
This is the most striking feature of the drawing, namely Millais’s inclusion, among sketches for a painting he began working on in 1859, of a sketch of one his works from seven years before.
Where drawing necessitates placing highlights first, leaving the area to be highlighted blank and then shading around it, oil painting leaves highlights for last, after the rest of the composition has been painted.
He recommended that Millais be “engaged on a picture with the dramatis personae actuated by generous thought of a larger world,” and it was then that Millais decided upon the Les Huguenots for his new subject.
