Features: Since ancient times, it has been believed that one must first learn drawing to become an artist. Any aspiring artist—someone who has already taken the first few stumbling steps on the path of art—who wishes to become an artist, starts with learning drawing, and their love for painting further solidifies their initial ideas and confidence. In all subsequent efforts, as long as the creative spirit remains undiminished and passion burns brightly, the strong desire for drawing will never fade. Those engaged in visual arts will all remember their first professional training vividly. When first stepping into an art studio—whether one ultimately studies oil painting or sculpture, illustration or craft design—we all know that drawing is the starting point. Drawing is the first step we take to enter the world of art. Without a doubt, drawing is the foundation of painting, the core of the entire art industry. Let us observe the grief-stricken hands in Masaccio's masterpiece "Expulsion from the Garden of Eden," the tormented hands in Grünewald's "Isenheim Altarpiece," the compassionate hands in Botticelli's "St. John the Baptist," and the faithful, reliable, and straightforward "Praying Hands" by Dürer.
