About American Artist Drawing : American Artist Drawing magazine was launched in 2003 to provide working artists with information and inspiration regarding the foundation of art: drawing. Whether one works in watercolor, oil, silverpoint, or clay, most every endeavor begins with a sketch. For many artists, the drawing constitutes the finished work. Finally, here’s a publication that focuses on it all – fine art created with graphite, Conté crayon, charcoal, metalpoint, etching tools, and other materials.
