Andrew!! This summary of the demo from your perspective was so interesting for me. Also flattering 😊 the side by side flowchart is such a nice way to break down the processes, and you nailed it with the cyclical chart on my personal approach.
I love working that way because making a sketch is always interesting and surprising. Sometimes I keep it simple too — a simple pen drawing can fun and rewarding. I feel like my Best works all take a leap of faith — many times it doesn’t work out but when it does it’s amazing. So I keep trying!
The Auckland picture is so funny and yet so real 😂 bless Urban Sketchers for allowing us to meet in person!
Eleanor!! I'm so glad to hear you found it interesting. It was interesting for me to think and write about it. Drawing these flow charts helps me understand what's going on, so I'm glad they make sense to someone else too. 😂
I wasn't sure if my perception of how you work was accurate, so I'm happy to have nailed it. It seems an exhilarating way to make a picture, and now I'm inspired to take more leaps of faith.
And yes, among many other things, that demo was proof that we should draw outside even if the weather sucks. Sometimes it's just like this. It was great to meet in person, and I hope we run into each other again.
As always Andrew, thought provoking and helpful to nudge me along in my journey. You’re motivating me to do my own flow chart - and I think I’ll add some specific prep steps to help me get in a good head space before putting pen to paper…and symbols to remind me to breathe 😅

Thanks Susan. I find making a flow chart really helpful. And please don't forget to breathe! 😂
More interesting process ideas. I really must try mapping my process out. Thanks, Andrew.
