Word origin
The word 'sketch' originated from the Dutch word 'schetsen' and the Italian word 'schizzo', both meaning 'a hasty drawing or painting'. The term evolved over time to refer to a quick, preliminary drawing or painting that captures the essential features of a subject. Sketches have been used by artists for centuries as a way to plan compositions, explore ideas, and capture fleeting moments.
