sketcher
One who draws
A sketcher is someone who sketches—makes quick, rough drawings.
The term applies to artists who work in preliminary or informal modes rather than finished pieces: She's a talented sketcher who fills notebooks on her commute.
Sketcher also names various drawing tools and software applications.
