e/Study (art)

Information
has gloss	eng: In art, a study is a drawing, sketch or painting done in preparation for a finished piece, or as visual notes. A study can have more impact than a more-elaborately planned work, due to the fresh insights the artist is gaining while exploring his/her subject. The excitement of discovery can give a study vitality. Even when layers of the work show changes the artist made as more was understood, the viewer shares more of the artists sense of discovery. Written notes alongside visual images add to the import of the piece as they allow the viewer to share the artists process of getting to know the subject. Unfortunately notepaper lacks the quality needed to ensure the study's longevity.
lexicalization	eng: Study
instance of	(noun) a representation of forms or objects on a surface by means of lines; "drawings of abstract forms"; "he did complicated pen-and-ink drawings like medieval miniatures" drawing
