Art is something that artists use to express how they feel in that moment. Art can be calming for people who love painting and drawing and sketching and putting their art onto a canvas or a paper or even cardboard.
Thousands of years ago, people drew on cave walls or on rocks and made cave paintings and rock art. The people used the tools around them and used it for art.
Art can decorate your home or give you an achievement to hang up and say “This lovely art is what I made. I started and I was determined to finish and I adore this achievement on my wall.”
Drawing is similar to writing. The similarity is that they both can tell you a story, but in a different way. Drawing with detail can tell a story, but with writing in detail you may picture a story. If these two are together, they can create a story with both. The difference between drawing and writing is writing is in words so that you can read about it, but with drawing, it's more like expressing emotions through shapes and lines.
There are lots of different art tools and different ways to draw and if you practice, you might draw better than you have ever before and accomplish improving your art. Keep making art with what inspires you and you will only get better!
