Travel Sketching Class Takeaways

What a great class this has been, and I’ve learned so much!

The final demos I did a crazed, loose sketch-along for these locations in Melbourne.

My takeaways from the class are many. I vastly enjoyed this class and learned so much. I feel I significantly leveled up in my understanding of practical applications, as well as in how to manage my overwhelm in the moment. So helpful! Here are my takeaways:

The fastest, loosest sketch will still capture the memory and scene.

Start with 7 lines, 5 shapes, or 3 layers when overwhelmed by a scene. It will still be clear enough to know.

I really like shapes and do better with them—that’s my personal go to beginning a sketch.

Onward! Though the group run through of Sketchbook Design is no longer happening, I intend to do the class myself. It aligns nicely with my desire to get back to a daily sketchbook habit.
