Definition
绘 is a formal verb meaning 'to draw, paint, or depict'. It is less common than 画 (huà) in everyday speech and appears more often in written or technical contexts, such as 绘图 (drawing, mapping), 描绘 (to depict), and 绘制 (to draft). While 画 can be used for casual drawing, 绘 implies a more detailed or artistic process.
