Abstract
1. Infinite underground world as refuge
Drawing is perhaps the best way to communicate our thoughts and imagination, along with music, sculpture or dancing. But, out of all the arts, drawing is perhaps the most accessible. All you need is a sheet of paper and a pen. Don't hesitate and give it a try yourself!

2. Abstract shapes and patterns

3. Mandala driven by color
To find inspiration for a beautiful drawing like this one, just take a closer look at the nature around you. You'll find beautiful patterns in flowers, leaves and snowflakes.

4. Swift atmosphere city sketch
Sometimes creative drawing ideas can be support techniques and illustrations over an image. A camera can express reality with perfect accuracy. An artist might feel the need to challenge his imagination to create something new.

8. The Big Ben Tower sketched
Some type of drawings, especially architectural ones require just enough information to express an idea, a place or a landscape. The viewers mind can fill in the gaps.
via Pinterest
9. City sketch defined depth perspective
The world around us is different from the image that our brain creates. We perceive it through a process that altera shapes and colors known as perspective. If it where any other way, we wouldn't be able to perceive distance and make the difference between two objects miles apart from each other. This is the first step to make a landscape realistic.

10. Inspiring shopfronts illustrated creatively
Looks so easy! Give it a go yourself and see how talented you are, miniature homes make great drawing ideas. Don't worry about straight lines or perfect angles, your hand drawing is defined by your line, it has personality, unlike a straight line that anyone can do with tools.

17. Realistic Giraffe portrait
The wrinkles in the giraffe's face are basically defining its shape, without them, it wouldn't be so distinctive. How to draw them though, that's the catch. It takes a lot of practice to master it, drawing skills are earned through hard work and a lot of practice. The point is that our brains perceive the difference between shadow and light, thus creating a mental image of what we see, this contrast creates depth . Same thing happens in nature. This is only a mean of representing a tri-dimensional shape on a sheet of paper.

18. Watercolor owl portrait

They are simple and very expressive, they transmit a lot of information through minimum effort and time.

20. Small critter showing emotion
We communicate 90% of our emotions and thoughts through our body language and only 10% through speech. Learning how to represent them in a drawing involves understanding how us humans express ourselves by shaping our lips, eyebrows or nose. That's why emoticons are so popular. They can relate, though on a very superficial level, with how we feel our what we desire to say, simple but impactful idea that can inspire our favorite thousands of drawing ideas: just add emotion to anything that you love to draw.

These images of a snail were drawn while the artist kept his eyes closed.

The difference between a drawing and the real world is that what surrounds us is not shaped by lines. You don't see them in a photo either. Use only gradients and colors to create a more photo realistic image.
