DRAWING
Drawing is one of the most important aspects of a successful RVJ. Drawings are the first step into realising an idea, Rough sketches are important they allow the artist to quickly note down ideas that may come into mind they don’t have to be good at an illustrative view point because they are simply for future reference much like written notes but from a visual viewpoint
the above is “a drawing from Leonardo's notebook and one of his first plans for the Last Supper painting.” it is a perfect example of how drawing in a sketchbook is used, when you compare this to finished painting we can see development and planning, full scale paintings like the last supper take allot of time and money so they would need to be fully sketched out before, the sketch isn’t meant to be a work of art, this would have been one of many sketches and manly designed and annotated purely for the artist and anyone working with the artist at the time. Drawing can also be a form of problem solving. From an illustrative point of view an artist will run into several visual problems, sketches like this can help resolve problems and help the artist create the best composition possible and the best ideas.
