Sketching

Yesterday I went to a food court in a mall and did some people sketching. My sketches are awful. I felt uncomfortable and watched and out of my depth. People moved too much, too quickly, too often. I couldn't capture anything that resembled what was before me.

But you know what, I'm going to do it again. Because after about 20 minutes something happened. I caught the shape of a woman's head & hair almost exactly. In just a few pencil strokes. It was like magic. And I gotta get me some more of that.

Try it. And don't give up.
