sketchbook update

January 14, 2017  •  8 Comments

These are a few of the daily sketches I've been working on (the ones I've remembered to photograph and had time to download from the cameras). The rules that I try to follow are : no more than 30 minutes total drawing time, and no more than 2 minutes in choosing a subject, so that if composition or other issues crop up, I learn to be more spontaneous and work around them. It's a great way to learn about the values that can be achieved with different hardness of pencils, as well as the use of negative space, and erasure.

These are all really nice. I like your rules and the way you are approaching this. It's easy to bog oneself down with the details in drawing and in many things.

Very interesting, Paula. Maybe I'll forget about cleaning the house.
