Drawing - an art form as old as the human

As early as 40,000 years ago, humankind began to draw. Cave paintings and rock carvings around the world, testify to how we as a species have always had a deep rooted need to express ourselves in images. Through drawing and painting, we have always told stories, documented life events and strived to create a more beautiful environment. For ourselves, or for those who come after. The art of drawing is thus nothing new under the sun.

 

Today, we may no longer paint on cave walls with our hands, but on paper and canvas. And instead of soil mixed with water, the visual artist has mediums such as graphite pencils, felt tip pens and charcoal crayons. But even though our tools have evolved since the time of the caveman, drawing remains a timeless and forever trendy art form.

Personal interior design style with sketches and drawings

If you want to quickly and easily give your interior a personal touch, art is an excellent tool. With pictures and paintings, you can create fantastic eye catchers, soften bare walls, and, not least, tie your interior style together. But you can also create cool style clashes.

 

Detailed drawings and minimalist sketches are perfect when you want to bring your walls to life. You can let them speak for themselves or create trendy picture walls by grouping them. They can be placed on the floor, on chests of drawers, and on bookshelves, or, really anywhere you want to place a nice interior detail. Above all, drawings are perfect team players, which are easy to combine with artwork and interior details of other kinds.
