1 meaning of sketched

Practice

  1. 1
    verb
    Simple past and past participle of sketch.

    The architect sketched several rough layouts during the meeting.

    The portrait was sketched in charcoal over a single afternoon.

    Note

    A single regular -ed spelling serves as both past tense and participle: she sketched all afternoon, she has sketched the layout, the layout was sketched. It carries both meanings of the verb. Drawing can stand without an object. Describing in outline always takes one, so he sketched the proposal for the board may involve no pencil at all. Context, not form, tells the two apart.
