Urban Sketching: Learn fast inking & combat mental blocks! Speedy sketch Challenge.

Hey Nontira! Thanks for uploading :) I'm really glad you enjoyed the framing, I agree, it's great for focus! It's so easy to be intimidated or distracted if trying to draw everything. Speaking of which, I really like your chosen frames, the composition is really nice and your line-work is really free and relaxed. Hehe, yeah 2 and 3 are a bit tough, I also don't like drawing cars usually but I don't mind when I do it just like a car shaped squiggle. Either way it doesn't look like you had a problem, both are really great, (and you are right about 3, there is no time to think but it's funny how you don't need as much time as you think to make a nice sketch eh?) Thanks for your really sweet message and for taking the time out for my class, much appreciated.  Keep in touch, Ed (PS Augsburg looks like a nice city, one of the oldest in Germany I read!)

Dear Ed!

Thank you very much for your feedback! :D
I'm really looking forward to your next class!

Challenge 1 I really loved the still life, because nothing is moving :D And it is wonderful to watch and discover. By the way this was the first time I used the little frame-technique... it really helps to FOCUS!

Challenge 2 I'm absolutely not into cars! I was kind of disturbed by them. I tried to focus on buildings and people... but I still have to train how to capture moving objects.

Challenge 3
5 Minutes!!! Way too fast for me... but it was quite interesting. I had no time to think... this was really killing any mental blocks!
