« Once my mind went there my drawing would become stiff with the unnecessary pressure of being perfect. While what you actually want is for it to be free and experimental, with marks that come alive. » This really struck me, and not just concerning art but concerning life — I will try to remember the lesson ! Thank you !
I didn’t think about it concerning life at the time of writing is, but it definitely hold true in that sense as well. Thank you in turn for reminding me about that!
Thank you so much great information here and lots to inspire! I feel like diving into my sketchbook now to see what I can recreate from my own images !
I’m glad to hear that it gave you some new ideas and inspiration. Would love to see what you come up with once you have given it a try, as well as your experience doing it.
Very interesting to read Nino, I've seen Sandi Hester doing this all the time as you mentioned. I repeat a lot some of my drawings, but I don't sketch based on the previous, usually I draw from memory the same thing (may add some new elements) so it's definitely not the same... so I should try this too!

Wonderful! I would love to see what you end up creating from your own sketchbook images.
I have yet to try this but am now determined to try! Thanks this was eye opening ☺️

It’s a small midset shift, but it really helps for when you want to explore other aspects of the sketch.
