Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Graphite pencils are a popular drawing medium among artists because they come in a wide range of grades, from very hard (H) to very soft (B). Each grade produces a different effect, allowing artists to create a variety of line weights and shades. Graphite pencils are not typically used because artists run out of other materials or because they are working outdoors. While graphite pencils contain a form of lead, it is actually graphite, not the toxic metal lead.
