When an artist paints a canvas in a studio, he relies on sketches. As a rule, the etude is small work of art.

It can depict a landscape, portrait or still life, figures of people or animals, elements of architecture.

Sketches are drawn with a variety of materials - pencil, pastel, tempera, oil or gouache paints, watercolors. For a long time, the study was considered only an auxiliary drawing.

From the end of the 19th century, etude has been regarded as an independent art work.

In contemporary exhibitions, sketches are often displayed alongside completed paintings and sculptures.
