Drawing: art and means of communication!

Both an art and a means of communication, drawing has been mastered for more than 67,000 years by men, while they have only been able to write for 5,500 years. Children also often draw before they can even speak. The first sketches were made by the Romans. Subsequently, it was during the Renaissance that this art was revolutionized. In the 17th century, contemporary artists Rembrandt and Poussin brought modernization and a new vision. Formerly called a contemporary artist, today the designer expresses himself in comics, manga, illustrations, press cartoons...

To know everything about pencil drawing

For centuries, pencil drawing has never lost its appeal among artists. Great masters of yesteryear and contemporary creators use it. Just like painting, a pencil drawing in black or color brings a touch of life to any room in the house.

Origins of pencil drawing

It would be in Ancient Egypt that the first traces of drawing were found, but it would seem that it was among the Romans that the process somewhat similar to current features was initiated. For their drawings, they used a mixture of pigments, bone powder, gum arabic and Spanish white which they inserted into a metal point.

Description

At the centre of the picture is the peacock, whose body is depicted in a rich, shimmering blue. Its long neck and characteristic head with the small crown of feathers are precisely worked out and give the bird a proud, upright posture. The highlight of the drawing is undoubtedly the peacock's magnificent tail. The numerous tail feathers spread out in a fan shape around the body and fill the background. Each individual feather is carefully drawn, with the typical "eyes" in blue and green tones, surrounded by delicate yellowish-green shades. The colouring is particularly impressive. The transitions from blue to green and yellow in the feathers are fluid and lifelike. The contrast between the intense blue of the body and the lighter, shimmering tones of the plumage gives the picture depth and liveliness. The drawing impresses with its attention to detail and at the same time with a certain lightness achieved through the coloured pencil technique. The white background makes the peacock stand out even more and reinforces the impression of its majestic appearance.
