A pencil (/ˈpɛnsəl/ (listen)) is a writing or drawing implement with a solid pigment core in a protective casing that reduces the risk of core breakage, and keeps it from marking the user's hand.

As a technique for drawing, the closest predecessor to the pencil was silverpoint or leadpoint until in 1565 (some sources say as early as 1500), a large deposit of graphite was discovered on the approach to Grey Knotts from the hamlet of Seathwaite in Borrowdale parish, Cumbria, England.[4][5][6][7] This particular deposit of graphite was extremely pure and solid, and it could easily be sawn into sticks. It remains the only large-scale deposit of graphite ever found in this solid form.[8] Chemistry was in its infancy and the substance was thought to be a form of lead. Consequently, it was called plumbago (Latin for "lead ore").[9][10] Because the pencil core is still referred to as "lead", or "a lead", many people have the misconception that the graphite in the pencil is lead,[11] and the black core of pencils is still referred to as lead, even though it never contained the element lead.[12][13][14][15][16] The words for pencil in German (Bleistift), Irish (peann luaidhe), Arabic (قلم رصاص qalam raṣāṣ), and some other languages literally mean lead pen.
Do you want a really impressive portfolio? Commit time to figure drawing classes. Not open studio, but with an instructor. This is an excellent skill to develop as it trains the eye as much as the hand. All the great renaissance architects were classically trained in art, and all architectural professors know this.
First post Due89. If this is for applying for a B.Arch then they might want to see Artistic creativity because they probably don't want alot of technical drawings. Now an M.Arch Option I or II types degree (1 or 2 years depending on whether the person has a B.Arch or a pre-professional B.A or B.S. in Architecture.) - he might want more demonstration of design thinking process in architectural related endeavors and less on the pure art but might not be too interested in the technical knowledge unless the school is very technical oriented program.
This is an image of the partridge, which is too attached to earthly treasures and is almost childlike. He is so desperate for shiny objects that have superficial material worth instead of looking for the eternal which embodies spiritual wealth. The partridge's attachment to the jewels and their worth have shut him off from experiencing anything including even flying. I drew the partridge standing on the edge of a tree, so close to experiencing the freedom of flight but still attached to his worldly possessions. He is holding the jewels in his beak but slowly, one by one they are falling away to the world below. I used an app called SketchUp 3d on my tablet to draw this drawing. It allowed me to draw freehand while using the computer.
The picture representing the Valley of Bewilderment is a mixture of artistic rendering and actual photography. The background picture is an actual picture of a sunset I took while on a flight to Virginia from Boston, and it has been colorized to an extent. The mountains and birds, however, are drawings that I added to the picture. All editing to the picture was completed through the photo editor Pixlr. As this picture represents a valley, there are mountains on either side forming a valley, and the Sun at the end represents the light of the Simorgh close by, only one valley away, the bright, bewildering light of this Simorgh. A number of birds glide safely through the valley to continue on their journey to their king, however this immense power and light of the Simorgh is too much for some of these birds to handle, and they plummet to their demise in the valley below. The verses of the poem that best represent the toils and the hope of this valley are also present. While the birds are undergoing much bewilderment of the senses, they are also experiencing much hope in the form of love, as stated in the verses. 2ff7e9595c
