Features: In the various fields of visual arts, sketching is an essential and simple form of expression. The achievements of predecessors in mutual sketching and modern understanding of sketching both regard it as the direct and fundamental visual form for expressing ideas, emotions, and forms. Sketching has become a common for all specialized fields in visual arts. Sketching is also an independent artistic expression style. It not only directly expresses the basic principles of composition, form, structure, perspective, and space in visual arts, as well as the way of perceiving and representing the existence of natural objects, but also unlocks the aesthetic significance and value of art, inspires various artistic expression methods, and creates diverse artistic forms. Thus, it unfolds the wings of imaginative scenarios, hints at emotions and thoughts, and becomes an independent artistic work.
