Definition: A sketch is a quickly drawn, usually simple, drawing that is completed often for practice, as a means to remember information for a future piece of artwork, or as a means to decipher the essence of a person, place or thing.  Artists frequently use thumbnail sketches in order to work out the best composition and design for a piece of artwork to save time and prevent mistakes.
