Sketching is fun!  It helps your brain function better and it is so rewarding to create something beautiful.  Every time I ride a bus or train, I pull out my sketchbook and begin sketching candid portraits of those around me.  Something happens, I go into another state, and it’s like the images flow out of my pen or pencil onto the paper.  The great thing about sketching is that anyone can do it.  Yes, even you!  Fifteen years ago, I was awful at sketching, I couldn’t draw what was in front of me to save my life.  But I loved to do it.  Every time I could capture the image correctly it made me happy.  When you sketch, you see life in a completely different way.  You begin to notice details that other people miss.  It adds a layer of beauty that is truly marvelous.
