pictures made with a pencil, pen, or crayon rather than paint

a young girl sits at an easel holding a pencil, carefully sketching lines on white paper. She moves her hand smoothly across the surface, creating the outline of a flower. The pencil marks appear dark and clear against the bright paper as her drawing takes shape. Several completed drawings lie nearby showing different subjects made with various tools like crayons and colored pencils. Other students work quietly at their own easels, each focused on their own artwork.  pictures being made with a pencil, pen, or crayon rather than paint
