I just learned two Japanese words today, "ewokaku," and "egaku", which I believe both mean "to paint/draw a picture." I am just confused as to which one I would actually use.
For example which one would I use if I say, "I am going to draw a picture."

I would use "e wo kaku." Egaku sounds formal, and I guess you use egaku with an object in many cases.

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Japanese
"egaku" is only verb. Like "draw"
"E wo kaku" means "draw a picture" "E" is "picture".
"I am going to draw a picture." = "わたしは えを かく つもりです"
For example"このえは うま がえがかれている"
= "This picture is drawn a horse. "
