	Drawing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Drawing is generally considered distinct from painting, in which colored pigments are suspended in a liquid medium and usually applied with a brush.
		Etching is similar to drawing but differs in that the tool digs into the surface, which is then used to make prints on a separate surface.
		One standard for differentiating drawing from painting is that it does not permit the artist to mix colors before applying them; colors can only be blended on the drawing surface, usually by overlaying one upon the other or by putting them close enough together that the eye "mixes" them.

	Stamping: Drawing
		In drawing, a blank of sheet metal is restrained at the edges, and the middle section is forced by a punch into a die to stretch the metal into a cup shaped drawn part.
		Shallow drawing is used to describe the process where the depth of draw is less than the smallest dimension of the opening; otherwise, it is considered deep drawing.
		Drawing leads to wrinkling and puckering at the edge where the sheet metal is clamped.

	Drawing
		On rare occasions, color drawings may be necessary as the only practical medium by which to disclose the subject matter sought to be patented in a utility patent application or the subject matter of a statutory invention registration.
		All views of the drawing must be grouped together and arranged on the sheet(s) without wasting space, preferably in an upright position, clearly separated from one another, and must not be included in the sheets containing the specifications, claims, or abstract.
		The requirements relating to drawings are strictly enforced, but a drawing not complying with all of the regulations may be accepted for purpose of examination, and correction or a new drawing will be required later.

	drawing
		Drawing is traditionally a learning medium for the "bigger" practices of sculpture, painting and architecture; and Ingres says, "drawing is the probity of art." The Grove Dictionary of Art treats drawing sometimes as the servant, sometimes as the law-giver of painting; and one runs into problems distinguishing the two.
		Judged on their own terms, such drawings serve as records of invention, original thought and primary observation, "as thoughts and images were first rendered into graphic form." [5] In terms of time and thought, drawing is here seen as a less mediated activity--more personal, spontaneous and intimate than painting, which traditionally takes planning and deliberation.
		Through this action, drawing is a medium to Plato's "divine madness" and to Merleau-Pony's "delirium which is vision itself." [12] One could see drawing, in the Peircean sense, as an index which connects and activates the eye and the hand, as well as the self and the world.

	Mark Harden's Artchive: Drawings
		Even more than with paintings, the art of looking at drawings lies in knowing what to look for; factors such as: the flexibility in the use of the drawing instrument and the variety and skill with which the different strokes are made.
		Sometimes, drawings can be much more like a finished work of art than any of these types, particularly if they are done for a patron as what is called a 'presentation drawing.
		In the case of drawing, it meant grading the tones extremely carefully to convey the sculptural qualities of form, particularly in relationship to life drawing.

	ArtLex on Drawing
		Though an integral part of most painting, drawing is generally differentiated from painting by the dominance of line over mass.
		Preliminary drawings include various exercises (e.g., contour drawing, gesture drawing, figure drawing, drawing from the flat), as well as sketches and studies, cartoons and underdrawings.
		Drawing has been highly appreciated since the Renaissance, greatly because it implies spontaneity — an embodiment of the artist's ideas.

	drawing encounters with children
		Drawing can serve as a powerful means for developing children's perception and thought; and, yet, few adults view drawing as a skill that can be improved through practice and instruction.
		Drawing encounters may take several different forms in the elementary classroom including the making of sketches, diagrams, cluster maps, visual studies, and drawings that are completed art works.
		As children begin to express a concern for "realism" in their drawings, they should be encouraged to expand their drawing vocabularies by working from both observation and their own imaginations.

	Drawing
		For me, drawing is about a quarter objective techniques, a quarter observation of real things, a quarter influence, and a quarter imagination--or something along those lines.
		In a "fine art" drawing, hung on the wall, the relation is that of a direct axis between image and viewer--a relation that, metaphorically speaking, is essentially perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
		He does have a kitschy side, I don't deny that (especially in some of the drawings that he does when he tries to capture dance movements; some of the "poetic" moments that he depicts are too saccharine for my taste too).

		Such a conception of the destinies of the birth of art does not predestine a from or dimension to the work: a sheet of paper or a great wall painting; neither a particular technique, charcoal drawings or painted canvas.

	Geometry in Action: Graph Drawing
		Graph drawing can be thought of as a form of data visualization, but unlike most other types of visualization the information to be visualized is purely combinatorial, consisting of edges connecting a set of vertices.
		Applications of graph drawing include genealogy, cartography (subway maps form one of the standard examples of a graph drawing), sociology, software engineering (visualization of connections between program modules), VLSI design, and visualization of hypertext links.
		Typical concerns of graph drawing algorithms are the area needed to draw a graph, the types of edges (straight lines or bent), the number of edge crossings for nonplanar graphs, separation of vertices and edges so they can be distinguished visually, and preservation of properties such as symmetry and distance.
