Abstract: Drawing may be considered an important phenomenon in the history and development of creative arts as well as architecture and others. Its relevance and efficacy to human and sustainable national development are neglected and relegated to the background, hence the study. Aniakor (2012), states that Western Construction o) Knowledge are always accepted as foundational to development issues in Africa, its construction has global status; its knowledge is an irreversible variant upon which all knowledge is based or arises. The study therefore, shares the view that knowledge could be acquired and advanced out of one’s immediate environment using different media or medium. Drawing as a medium of visual expression is highlighted to reflect its importance to humanity and development of architecture, engineering as well as modern technology. Primary and Secondary sources of data collation were used to achieve the objectives of the study. The study reveals that drawing is a significant route to knowledge and could be developed and improved upon to achieve sustainable national development. These however, took the study to conclusion and possible recommendations were advanced for futuristic focus.
