Detailed Description
Pencil drawing is a form of visual art that uses pencils as the main medium of expression. Pencil drawings can be either monochromatic or colored. The history of pencil drawing can be traced back to the 16th century, when artists began using lead pencils to draw on paper. Pencil drawing gained popularity in the 18th century, when pencils became more widely available. Famous pencil artists include Albrecht Dürer, who was one of the first artists to use lead pencils, and Rembrandt van Rijn, who is known for his detailed and expressive drawings. Pencil drawing continues to be popular among artists today, who use it to create both realistic and abstract drawings.
