I believe the two forms of [to draw](https://jisho.org/search/to%20draw) are
描{か}く and 描{えが}き. What are the differences between them? Which one is used
more commonly?

What is the difference between 描【か】く and 描【えが】く?
Please, take a look at [this related
discussion](https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapanese/comments/8hnd8v/when_to_use_%E6%8F%8F%E3%81%8F%E3%81%88%E3%81%8C%E3%81%8F_vs_%E6%8F%8F%E3%81%8F%E3%81%8B%E3%81%8F_reading/dyl2cu5/)
in reddit, in particular to the following passage:

> [...] As for the pronunciations of 描くI believe they are fairly
> interchangeable, but えがく is used more for artistic sketching or 'picturing'
> and かく for drawing diagrams.
