Drawing as a form of Two-dimensional Art

Abstract

Drawing is the art of representing objects in lines. Ndubisi (2010) sees drawing as the act of producing or creating a visual object using pencils, chalk, charcoal and other related materials. Drawing can also be seen as the art of using lines to define the shapes of an object in chiding man and animals, Egonwa (2012). Again, Read (1972p. 51) describes drawing as delineation which remains one of the most essential elements of visual arts – even in sculpture. It is a way of training the eyes and promoting visual and muscular coordination.
