For 32,000 years mankind has been drawing and painting. There are over 350 caves in France and Spain that attest to this. By the 12th and 13th centuries monks were using lead stylii on reusable wood tablets. With the advent of paper becoming widely available in the 14th century, drawings became very common. Today, most drawing, exceptions aside, is done with graphite and charcoal pencils, graphite and charcoal sticks, colored pencils, pastels, Conté, silverpoint, as well as markers, pen and ink.
