The best pencils for drawing and sketching are a HB, 2B, 6B and 9B. Far better than buying a whole set of pencils, most of which will never be used.

If an artist prefers softer, darker lines with rich shading and wants to achieve a more dramatic effect, a 4B pencil would be the better choice. On the other hand, if they prefer a bit more control with a slightly lighter and less intense line, then a 2B pencil might be preferable.

What is real meaning of drawing?
Drawing is what you see, process it, give it your own thought and add things. Drawing is never rudimentary. Drawing is going with the flow of thoughts and giving meanings.

Why do sketches look better than line art so often?
Sketches are often quick and loose. This allows the mark making to be fresh and open. when you begin to line the work you are making the marks all the same weight and it takes the freshness away from the original sketch.
