Pencil drawing is a foundational visual art technique using graphite or colored pencils to create sketches, portraits, and detailed renderings through control of line weight and shading. It appeals to artists for its accessibility, forgiving nature (allowing erasing and blending), and its role as the basis for learning proportion, perspective, and value before moving to other media.
