Drawings –First
Expression of Artist’s Vision
Drawing is making a picture with pen, pencil
or charcoal, Together with painting and sculpture, drawing is one of the
branches of fine arts.
An artist often makes a drawing in preparation
for a large painting or sculpture but some famous artist make drawings that
stand by themselves. Several techniques are use in drawing. Some artists
faithfully copy what they see; others sketch only outlines. Some others give an
exaggerated version of subject which shows what the artist thinks.
Often, rough sketches are sufficient- For
example the comic strip or political cartoon is seldom a finished work. These are
admired because their creators can tell a complete story with only a few lines
of their sketches.
Commercial artists frequently use drawing
techniques to make posters, newspapers or magazine advertisements or similar materials.
A specialized skill is medical or scientific illustration which involves drawings
difficult subjects.
Other types of drawings have specialized
purpose which are not strictly artistic. For example, Mechanical drawing or drafting
shows exact sizes and shapes of tools and machines with their inside parts that
would not be ordinary seen. In such pictures the designer’s ideas are clear to
the craftsman who will build the devices.
Architectural drafting use similar principles
in the building construction industry. Both mechanical and architectural drawings
are sometimes called blue prints because the machine that copies them uses blue
ink.
Historically, the art of drawing can be traced
back to the earliest records of man. Some Cave art is in the for of drawings.
Ancient Chinese used ink and brushes for
their famous line drawings on scrolls and decorations. They and the Japanese still
draw in this way today. Several artist of the 16th century used
pencil chalk ink and charcoal to sketch or draw their ideas before beginning a
large painting or sculpture Famous artists like Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo,
left a treasure trove of drawings that show how they planned their major works.
Today the art of drawing has been widely
accepted .Drawings are the first expression of the artist’s vision courtesy wisdom
Quote from
the True Charm and Power of Vedanta
Search for
truth
That there could be a difference between a
man who considers himself to be a rationalist
with a scientific bent of mind, and a seeker of truth was brought home to me by
a recent incident. A friend of mine who was widely read in matters relating to
science always insisted that belief in God and religion is the product of a sense
of fear and uncertainty in the mind. I was convinced that he had absorbed the views
of some eminent Westerner thinks. Fortunately, he did not say that exploitation
is at the root of all religions. It may be admitted that in some primitive’s
tribes, belief in God or religion originated from a sense of fear. But this is
not the whole truth. In cultured, civilized communities, the religious feelings
are not an expression of any fear. A man standing before a forked road may
reflect a while as to which direction he should take . it is more sensible to
say that the religious sense is the outcome of an
attempt to find answers to
certain fundamental questions about life and the world. What was Gautama Buddha
afraid of? What caused any fear in the mind of Shankaracharya? Should we
consider the composers of the Upanishad to be the seekers of truth or escapists?
In India, philosophy and religion grew from the insights into the nature of
reality. The Gita rose to resolve the conflict in the mind of Arjuna. The Sankhyas,
who make a valuable contribution to Indian philosophy, laid the foundation of
inquiry, into the means of overcoming evils of life and existence. The origin
of religion is an attempt to seek a way out of the limitations of the world; to
attain the state of mind required for such relief . it is keen desire for the
exploration of the world within. My friend considered the behavior of such
eminent thinkers to be nothing but a from of psychological obsession. I asked him
in which century this psychological theory was developed. Don’t we see that the
more recent scientific discoveries only disprove the previous discoveries which
also scientific? Courtesy Infinite power hidden within you. Learn to live
But, if He
exists?
I drive joy
There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 minutes in the morning and evening
for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him.
One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something,
which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does
not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But if He exists? I am
afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes
rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I
derive 4m.
