What are some popular types of drawings and illustrations?

Drawings and illustrations make excellent decorations for your living and office spaces. Many techniques create beautiful results—from black and white to those touching every color of the rainbow. Consider some of these popular types of drawings and illustrations for your space: Charcoal drawings : This art form uses charred sticks of wood to create a wide range of artwork, including highly realistic images. By nature, each charcoal drawing will be entirely black and white with a lot of shading and blending. Digital illustrations : There are many software programs out there that artists use to create digital illustrations of all subject matter. As an extensive and dynamic art form, this type of drawing and illustration could be anything resembling watercolor paintings, pop fan art, and oil paintings—to name a few. Marker drawings : Using ink markers is a brilliant skill to master, and there are many tools like fine and thick tip markers to help create details and color in spaces. Pastel drawings : This type of art walks the line between painting and drawing as pastels create a luscious and luminescent finished look—like a painting—but use a process similar to drawing to get there. Pastels mix pigment with a binder, like a stick of chalk and a crayon. Pen and ink illustrations : The key to these illustrations is the special pen used called a dip pen or a reservoir pen—the type you might see medieval kings and knights using to sign their names in the movies, but usually without the feather quill. The technique often uses large and small strokes to create depth and dimension in the image ranging from highly detailed works to thick silhouettes, shadows, and optical illusions. Pencil drawings : Harder than it sounds, pencil drawings require a lot of skill and practice. Most artists use tons of shading and various pressures on the pencil to create mesmerizing work. While always a shade of slate-gray, some drawings may be incredibly photorealistic, while others suggest themes and settings for your mind to interpret the rest. Architectural drawings : The two main styles of these drawings are blueprints and portrait-style images. Blueprints differ as they tend to be more technical and offer a top-down or side-on view of the structure. They might have architectural notes like the distances and sizes of doorways and walls or break the building into an x-ray-like view of each section. Portrait-style drawings might show part of the building, interior or exterior, without any technical details included.

How do you decorate with drawings and illustrations?

Place drawings and illustrations anywhere you’d hang art and collectibles , like your bedroom, living room, or office. You could choose a beautiful charcoal drawing of a landscape to inspire your morning near your coffee machine or hang a gorgeous pastel butterfly over the living room sofa to lighten up the room. Pencil drawings tend to be smaller, so you could frame a pencil image of a jellyfish and put it in the bathroom alongside some sea shells and coastal decor. Digital images could be large or small, covering wide swaths of wall space like a blank hallway or a collection of two or three in the den. Whatever type of drawing or illustration you choose, place it somewhere you can admire often and where guests can glimpse your interests.

How do you personalize a drawing or illustration on Etsy?

Shops on Etsy are independent sellers who can be very talented artists who can apply their specific art skills to create a custom image for you. This could be a detailed pencil drawing of you or your family to hang on the wall or a charcoal illustration of a pet you love. You could ask a seller to create an architectural drawing based on a photo of your house or a pastel landscape somewhere that means a lot to you. Look for sellers offering custom or personalized drawings and add your request in the ‘add your personalization’ box on the product page. Some sellers may be contacted directly through messaging or emails to collaborate and impress you with both their artistic talents and exceptional service.
