Artists have always loved to sketch!

Sketch of a sparrow from Egypt dated c. 1479–1458 BC.

Some 3,500 years ago in Egypt, artists used flakes of limestone as sketchpads!

Met Museum photo of an Ancient Egyptian artist’s painting of a swallow on a flake of limestone, dated to the New Kingdom, Dynasty 18, joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III, c. 1479-1458 BC. The sparrow stands in profile with head to the right. It is delicately painted with a pinkish body. The outline and details are highlighted in a reddish/brown pigment. Its legs, eye, and beak are painted black. Limestone flake dimensions Height 6.6 cm x Width 10.6 cm. This may have been a practice drawing of the sparrow hieroglyph which was used for words meaning ‘small’, ‘poor’, or ‘bad’. Egyptian artisans who decorated tombs and temples made practice sketches on flakes of limestone which are known by egyptologists as ostraca (singular: ostracon). Sometimes the drawings were used as a template when transferring an image to the wall of a tomb or a temple. Limestone flakes were readily available for this purpose as by-products of the construction of temples and rock-cut tombs. A number of ostraca were recovered at Deir el-Bahri during the 1922-23 MMA excavations.

Wilhelm Trübner (1876) Parklandschaft mit Brücke" (Parklandschaft with Bridge).
Watercolor by Wilhelm Trübner (1876) entitled "Parklandschaft mit Brücke" (Parklandschaft with Bridge). The image shows a dense forest landscape with tall trees reflected in calm waters. In the background, to the left, a small rustic bridge can be seen. The technique uses fluid and expressive brushstrokes in shades of green, blue, and touches of yellowish light.

Walter Battiss, Sailing on a Summer's Day.
Walter Battiss, Sailing on a Summer’s Day. A coastal landscape unfolds in soft, luminous tones. In the foreground, vegetation appears in loose brushstrokes of greens, yellows, and ochres. A small wooden pier extends over the clear water, where a few people stand or sit, suggesting a moment of rest. In the background, the calm bay stretches toward bluish hills and mountains, gently softened by the atmosphere. A white sailboat glides across the water

Pierre Bonnard, Pierre Bonnard, Fruit on the red carpet.
Artwork by Pierre Bonnard. In the foreground, a large, intense red carpet occupies the left half of the canvas. In the center and to the right, a table set with a white and lilac tablecloth holds two plates of fruit: one with bright yellow lemons and the other with dark, reddish fruits. In the background, a yellow wall and what appears to be the back of a green chair.
